Chief Seattle, of the Indians that inhabited the Seattle area, wrote a wonderful paper that has to do with putting oneself in tune with the universe. He said,

Individuals who want to believe that there is no fulfillment in love, that true love does not exist, cling to these assumptions because this despair is actually easier to face than the reality that love is a real fact of life but is absent from their lives.

Bell Hooks

Goals must never be from your ego, but problems that cry for a solution.

Robert H. Schuller

Knowing what you can not do is more important than knowing what you can do. In fact, that's good taste.

Lucille Ball

There is a single light of science, and to brighten it anywhere is to brighten it everywhere.

Isaac Asimov

Nations do not think, they only feel. They get their feelings at second hand through their temperaments, not their brains. A nation can be brought -- by force of circumstances, not argument -- to reconcile itself to any kind of government or religion that can be devised; in time it will fit itself to the required conditions; later it will prefer them and will fiercely fight for them.

Mark Twain

Fame is like a river, that beareth up things light and swollen, and drowns things weighty and solid.

Francis Bacon

Rollo May

The movies that made me want to make movies were action movies, and thrillers, and Kurosawa films, you know, where you have an opportunity every day to shoot it in an unusual way. I was looking for something like that.

Lawrence Kasdan

Telling someone the truth is a loving act.

Mal Pancoast

I think it is inevitable that people program poorly. Training will not substantially help matters. We have to learn to live with it.

Alan Perlis

When you get together in a group, it becomes like a family, with the different personalities and the politics that comes with being in a band. It's different than bringing something in by yourself.

Albert Hammond, Jr.

La science est une nouvelle religion et la désinfection est son eau bénite.

George Bernard Shaw
