I regard the afterlife to be a fairy story for people that are afraid of the dark

A genuine leader is not a searcher for consensus but a molder of consensus.

Martin Luther King, Jr.

Humans are amphibians...half spirit and half animal...as spirits they belong to the eternal world, but as animals they inhabit time. This means that while their spirit can be directed to an eternal object, their bodies, passions, and imaginations are in continual change, for to be in time, means to change. Their nearest approach to constancy, therefore, is undulation--the repeated return to a level from which they repeatedly fall back, a series of troughs and peaks.

C.S. Lewis

Talent alone won't make you a success. Neither will being in the right place at the right time, unless you are ready. The most important question is: Are your ready?

Johnny Carson

Even a true artist does not always produce art.

Carroll O'Connor

How would your life be different if...You were conscious about the food you ate, the people you surround yourself with, and the media you watch, listen to, or read? Let today be the day...You pay attention to what you feed your mind, your body, and your life. Create a nourishing environment conducive to your growth and well-being today.

Who tracks the steps of glory to the grave?

Lord (George Gordon) Byron

It is a wonderful thing to see a first-rate philosopher at prayer. Tough-minded thinking and tenderhearted reverence are friends, not enemies. We have for too long separated the head from the heart, and we are the lesser for it. We love God with the mind and we love God with the heart. In reality, we are descending with the mind into the heart and there standing before God in ceaseless wonder and endless praise. As the mind and the heart work in concert, a kind of loving rationality pervades all we say and do. This brings unity to us and glory to God.

Soren Kierkegaard, The Prayers o

Oh, never and forever aren't for mortals, love. But we won't be parted till I know it's right that we part.

Ursula K. Le Guin

Life and death have been lacking in my life.

Jorge Luis Borges

A man should look for what is, and not for what he thinks should be.

Albert Einstein

There is nothing wrong with America that cannot be cured with what is right in America.

William J. Clinton

When you are covering a life-or-death struggle, as British reporters were in 1940, it is legitimate and right to go along with military censorship, and in fact in situations like that there wouldn't be any press without the censorship.
