The bad man is continually at war with, and in opposition to, himself

Aristotle

I am not here to parade my religious sentiments, but I declare I have too much respect for the faith in which I was born to ever use it as the basis of a political organization.

Joseph De Maistre

Better to ask twice than to lose your way once.

If we all knew each morning that there was going to be another morning, and on and on and on, we's tend not to notice the sunrise, or hear the birds, or the waves rolling into the shore. We'd tend not to treasure our time with the people we love. Simply the awareness that our mortal lives had a beginning and will have an end enhances the quality of our living. Perhaps it's even more intense when we know that the termination of the body is near, but it shouldn't be.

Madeleine L'Engle

Trying to sneak a fastball past Hank Aaron is like trying to sneak the sunrise past a rooster.

Joe Adcock

Perseverance - a lowly virtue whereby mediocrity achieves an inglorious success.

Ambrose Bierce

John Ruskin
