There is, on the whole, nothing on earth intended for innocent people so horrible as a school. To begin with, it is a prison. But in some respects more cruel than a prison. In a prison, for instance, you are not forced to read books written by the warders and the governor. . . .In the prison you are not forced to sit listening to turnkeys discoursing without charm or interest on subjects that they don't understand and don't care about, and therefore incapable of making you understand or care about. In a prison they may torture your body; but they do not torture your brains.
George Bernard Shaw

John Moffat
Fear and realisation of ignorance, strong medicines against stupid pride.
Human beings sometimes find a kind of pleasure in nursing painful emotions, in blaming themselves without reason or even against reason.
Isaac Asimov
Daisy didn't just change our lives, she changed our destiny.
Maryam Faresh
The beauty of behaviour consists in the manner more than the matter of your discourse.
James Burgh
Somewhere we taught ourselves that our opinions are more significant than the facts. And somehow we get our egos and our opinions and Truth all mixed up in a single package, so that when something does challenge one of the notions to which we subscribe, we react as if it challenges us.

William Arthur Sirmon
Keep a little fire burning; however small, however hidden.

Philip M. Rosenzweig
The illusion which exalts us is dearer to us than ten thousand truths.
