What ought I to do? I see only darkness everywhere. Shall I believe I am nothing? Shall I believe I am God? All things change and succeed each other. You are mistaken...

Blaise Pascal

He read the letter again, but could not take in any more meaning than he had done the first time and was reduced to staring at the handwriting itself. She had made her g's the same way he did : he searched through the letter for every one of them, and each felt like a friendly little wave glimpsed from behind a veil. The letter was an incredible treasure, proof that Lily Potter had lived, really lived, that her warm hand had once moved across this parchment, tracing ink into these letters, these words, words about him, Harry, her son.

Constantin Stanislavski

On completely popular government: Its superiority in reference to present well-being rests upon two principles, of as universal truth and applicability as any general propositions which can be laid down respecting human affairs. The first is, that the rights and interests of every or any person are only secure from being disregarded, when the person interested is himself able, and habitually disposed, to stand up for them. The second is, that the general prosperity attains a greater height, and is more widely diffused, in proportion to the amount and variety of the personal energies enlisted in promoting it.

John Stuart Mill

Thomas Edward Brown

As long as you know who you are, and see what makes you happy, it doesn't matte how others see you

Wendy Mass

The supreme, the merciless, the destroyer of opposition, the exalted King, the shepherd, the protector of the quarters of the world, the King the word of whose mouth destroys mountains and seas, who by his lordly attack has forced mighty and merciless Kings from the rising of the sun to the setting of the same to acknowledge one supremacy.

Ashurnasirpal

You speak metaphorically, I hope, said Peggy. I hope not, said Becca. Metaphors have a way of holding the most truth in the least space.

Orson Scott Card
