We can never be sure that the opinion we are endeavoring to stifle is a false opinion; and even if we were sure, stifling it would be an evil still.

Yet he who reigns within himself, and rulesPassions, desires, and fears, is more a king.

John Milton

It's a wonderful thing working with young actors. I know a lot of people don't like working with children. I actually adore it, because you watch their imagination open up and you watch them start to learn this job that I've been doing for so long. They come with such a lack of cynicism.

Michelle Forbes

Charles Dickens

It takes patience to appreciate domestic bliss volatile spirits prefer unhappiness.

George Santayana

The gays like 'Project Runway' because it's a fashion, and the gays are into fashion and into design. It's a creative industry, and most of the gays are pretty creative, in general. That's just like the culture. We're not all into politics necessarily. We're more into the creative environment. I also think Heidi is a big draw. The boys love Heidi and think she's so fabulous. I just think it's a glitzy, fun show, and there are also always lots of gay boys on it, and, you know, that's fun.

Christian Siriano

No man's knowledge here can go beyond his experience.

John Locke

Without the Empire we should be tossed like a cork in the cross current of world politics. It is at once our sword and our shield.

William Morris Hughes

Taste may change, but inclination never.

Francois de La Rochefoucauld

Finishing food is about the tiny touches. In the last seconds you can change everything.

Mario Batali

Nothing is further than earth from heaven, and nothing is nearer than heaven to earth.

David Hare

Think of what happened after 9/11, the minute before there was any assessment, there was glee in the administration because now we can invade Iraq, and so the war drums beat.

Ron Paul
