Better to die in the pursuit of civilized values, we believed, than in a flight underground. We were offering a value system couched in the language of science.

We can not play innocents abroad in a world that is not innocent.

Ronald Reagan

Because God is perfect, his handiwork functions in accord with immutable principles. By the full use of our God-given powers of reason and observation, it ought to be possible to discover these principles. These were the crucial ideas that explain why science arose in Christian Europe and no where else.

Rodney Stark

The wrath of the lion is the wisdom of God.

William Blake

In truth, I am a single mother. But I don't feel alone at all in parenting my daughter. Krishna has a whole other side of her family who loves her, too. And so Krishna is parented by me, but also by her grandmother and aunts and cousins and uncles and friends.

Padma Lakshmi

And what have you laymen made of hell? A kind of penal servitude for eternity, on the lines of your convict prisons on earth, to which you condemn in advance all the wretched felons your police have hunted from the beginning -- enemies of society, as you call them. You're kind enough to include the blasphemers and the profane. What proud or reasonable man could stomach such a notion of God's justice? And when you find that notion inconvenient it's easy enough for you to put it on one side. Hell is not to love any more, Madame. Not to love any more!

Georges Bernanos

The President has paid dear for his White House. It has commonly cost him all his peace, and the best of his manly attributes. To preserve for a short time so conspicuous an appearance before the world, he is content to eat dust before the real masters who stand erect behind the throne.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Don't be a time manager, be a priority manager. Cut your major goals into bite-sized pieces. Each small priority or requirement on the way to ultimate goal become a mini goal in itself.

Denis Waitley

One likes people much better when they're battered down by a prodigious siege of misfortune than when they triumph.

Virginia Woolf

The eternal stars shine out as soon as it is dark enough.

Thomas Carlyle

No political party has exclusive patent rights on prosperity.

Franklin D. Roosevelt

Pray as if everything depends on God. Work as if everything depends on you.

Augustine of Hippo

From our ancestors come our names from our virtues our honor.
