We can bomb the world to pieces, but we can't bomb it into peace.

Love is the only freedom in the world because it so elevates the spirit that the laws of humanity and the phenomena of nature do not alter its course

Kahlil Gibran

Wars begin in the minds of men, and in those minds, love and compassion would have built the defenses of peace.

U. Thant

I got through my teen years by being a bit of a clown.

Diane Cilento

A fool and his money get a lot of publicity.

Al Bernstein

We are now operating a school system in America that's more segregated than at any time since the death of Martin Luther King.

Jonathan Kozol

Love is not an equation, it is not a contract, and it is not a happy ending. Love is the slate under the chalk, the ground that buildings rise, and the oxygen in the air. It is the place you come back to, no matter where your headed

Jodi Picoult

Me, want to bloody kick this world in the bloody over and over till it bloody that is ten bloody times more bloody important than being .

David Mitchell

For what is love itself, for the one we love best? - an enfolding of immeasurable cares which yet are better than any joys outside our love

George Eliot

These technologies can make life easier, can let us touch people we might not otherwise. You may have a child with a birth defect and be able to get in touch with other parents and support groups, get medical information, the latest experimental drugs. These things can profoundly influence life. I'm not downplaying that.

Steve Jobs

Since the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, historians have become both more accurate and more honest fractionally more brave, one might say about that 'other' cleansing of the regions and peoples that were ground to atoms between the upper and nether millstones of Hitlerism and Stalinism. One of the most objective chroniclers is Professor Timothy Snyder of Yale University. In his view, it is still 'Operation Reinhardt,' or the planned destruction of Polish Jewry, that is to be considered as the centerpiece of what we commonly call the Holocaust, in which of the estimated 5.7 million Jewish dead, 'roughly three million were prewar Polish citizens.' We should not at all allow ourselves to forget the millions of non-Jewish citizens of Belarus, Russia, Ukraine, and other Slav territories who were also massacred. But for me the salient fact remains that anti-Semitism was the regnant, essential, organizing principle of all the other National Socialist race theories. It is thus not to be thought of as just one prejudice among many.

Christopher Hitchens

There are two types of men who never amount to anything. One is the fellow who never does anything except that which he is told to do. The other is the fellow who cannot do even that which he is told to do.

Andrew Carnegie

Be smart, be intelligent and be informed.
