And what is a good citizen? Simply one who never says, does or thinks anything that is unusual. Schools are maintained in order to bring this uniformity up to the highest possible point.

Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel

It is never too late to be what you might have been.

George Eliot

Humor distorts nothing, and only false gods are laughed off their earthly pedestals.

Kelly Osbourne

Winston Churchill

By cutting critical domestic programs such as education, health, environmental protection, and veterans' services, this budget reveals misplaced priorities.

Dan Lipinski

To be clever enough to get all the money, one must be stupid enough to want it.

G. K. Chesterton

I would love to support Hillary for president if she would come out against the travesty in Iraq. But I don't think she can speak out against the occupation because she supports it.

Cindy Sheehan
