Crying is all right in its own way while it lasts. But you have to stop sooner or later, and then you still have to decide what to do.

In order to plan your future wisely, it is necessary that you understand and appreciate your past.

Jo Coudert

We must think beyond ourselves

Kevin J. Anderson

It is always easier to take the words of a Jesus, a Gandhi, a Marx, or a Confucius as constituting Holy Writ. This involves less reading, less study, less thought, less conflict, and less independent searching, but it also means less growth toward maturity.

William Coperthwaite

The optimist sees the rose and not its thorns; the pessimist stares at the thorns, oblivious to the rose

Kahlil Gibran

The blood of the martyrs is the seed of the church.

Tertullian

There is a healthful hardiness about real dignity that never dreads contact and communion with others however humble.

Washington Irving

Science is based on the possibility of objectivity, on the possibility of different people checking out for themselves the observations made by others. Without that possibility, there is no empirical principle capable of deciding between different arguments and theories.

Jose Padilha

I have the luxury of being a little boy... To me, the most important thing in life is to be a human being. Second is acting.

Peter Stormare

I prefer Princess. I would love to be known as a diva later on in life when I've had far more experiences.

Deborah Cox

In the summer of 1965 I was invited to join Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio and returned to academic life as professor with the added responsibility of becoming also Department Chairman.

George Andrew Olah

Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not money, I am become as a sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not money, I am nothing. And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not money, it profiteth me nothing. Money suffereth long, and is kind; money envieth not; money vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, doth not behave unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. . . . And now abideth faith, hope, money, these three; but the greatest of these is money. I Corinthians xiii (adapted)

George Orwell

I was motivated to be different in part because I was different.

Donna Brazile
