Stephen Richards
The authority of any governing institution must stop at its citizen's skin.
I have yet to hear a man ask for advice on how to combine marriage and a career.
We can tell our values by looking at our checkbook stubs.
So may the outward shows be least themselves:The world is still deceived with ornament.In law, what plea so tainted and corrupt,But, being seasoned with a gracious voice,Obscures the show of evil? In religion,What damned error, but some sober browWill bless it and approve it with a text,Hiding the grossness with fair ornament?There is no vice so simple but assumesSome mark of virtue on his outward parts.
William Shakespeare
Forgotten were the elementary rules of logic, that extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence and that what can be asserted without evidence can also be dismissed without evidence.
Christopher Hitchens
A force as of madness in the hands of reason has done all that was ever done in the world
Thomas Carlyle
The world is not thy friend, nor the world's law. - Romeo
You may be keeping a diary of your thoughts but know that, in every religion, the God you believe is keeping a diary of your actions.
Steve Maraboli
I am going to sit here in the river. If you go home to sleep, I will sleep in front of your house. And if you go away, I will follow you--until you tell me to go away. Then I'll leave. But I have to love you for the rest of my life..
Paulo Coelho
There is an atmosphere of well-sounding oratory that likes to attach itself to dress clothes. Away with it
Albert Einstein
You affect your subconscious mind by verbal repetition.
W. Clement Stone
Truth will always be truth, regardless of lack of understanding, disbelief or ignorance.
I think there is something, more important than believing: Action! The world is full of dreamers, there aren't enough who will move ahead and begin to take concrete steps to actualize their vision.
So many fail because they don't get started -- they don't go. They don't overcome inertia. They don't begin.
When we direct our thoughts properly, we can control our emotions...
When you do the wrong thing, knowing it is wrong, you do so because you haven't developed the habit of effectively controlling or neutralizing strong inner urges that tempt you, or because you have established the wrong habit and don't know how to eliminate them effectively.
Tell everyone what you want to do and someone will want to help you do it.
Everyone's heard of Erwin Schrodinger's famous thought experiment. You put a cat in a box with a bottle of poison, which many people would suggest is about as far as you need to go.
Terry Pratchett
Have the courage to say no. Have the courage to face the truth. Do the right thing because it is right. These are the magic keys to living your life with integrity.
Recognize that throughout this beautiful day,you have an incredible amount of opportunities to move your life into the direction you want it to go.
And if you would know God, be not therefore a solver of riddles.Rather look about you and you shall see Him playing with your children.And look into space; you shall see Him walking in the cloud, outstretching His arms in the lightning and descending in rain.You shall see Him smiling in flowers, then rising and waving His hands in trees.
Kahlil Gibran
The soul of the just contemplates in sleep a mysterious heaven.
Victor Hugo
Whatever belief we have actually stems from the thankfulness that we feel and this feeling further attracts more happy feelings towards us.
The fantastical idea of virtue and the public good being a sufficient security to the state against the commission of crimes...was never mine. It is only the sanguinary hue of our penal laws which I meant to object to. Punishments I know are necessary, and I would provide them strict and inflexible, but proportioned to the crime. Death might be inflicted for murder and perhaps for treason, [but I] would take out of the description of treason all crimes which are not such in their nature. Rape, buggery, etc., punish by castration. All other crimes by working on high roads, rivers, gallies, etc., a certain time proportioned to the offence... Laws thus proportionate and mild should never be dispensed with. Let mercy be the character of the lawgiver, but let the judge be a mere machine. The mercies of the law will be dispensed equally and impartially to every description of men; those of the judge or of the executive power will be the eccentric impulses of whimsical, capricious designing man.
Thomas Jefferson
The doctor seemed especially troubled by the fact of the robbery having been unexpected, and attempted in the night-time; as if it were the established custom of gentlemen in the housebreaking way to transact business at noon, and to make an appointment, by the twopenny post, a day or two previous.
Charles Dickens
Only people who are capable of loving strongly can also suffer great sorrow, but this same necessity of loving serves to counteract their grief and heals them.
Leo Tolstoy
Yes: I am a dreamer. For a dreamer is one who can only find his way by moonlight, and his punishment is that he sees the dawn before the rest of the world.
Oscar Wilde
No one wants a good education. Everyone wants a good degree.
Lee Rudolph
When you see all that rhetorical smoke billowing up from the Democrats, well ladies and gentleman, I'd follow the example of their nominee; don't inhale.
Ronald Reagan
It doesn't matter what you're trying to accomplish. It's all a matter of discipline. I was determined to discover what life held for me beyond the inner-city streets.
Wilma Rudolph
The author must keep his mouth shut when his work starts to speak.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I'm in my prime. There's no goal too far, no mountain too high.
I am a determinist. As such, I do not believe in free will. The Jews believe in free will. They believe that man shapes his own life. I reject that doctrine philosophically. In that respect I am not a Jew.
My mother taught me very early to believe I could achieve any accomplishment I wanted to. The first was to walk without braces.
Reputation are made every day and every minute.

Rank and riches are chains of gold, but still chains.
