The dead hand of the past must die. We are waking up and that gives me hope that the new age will truely be free and not filled with the lies and democide of the old world order.

For beauty called to beauty and there thronged at the enchanter's will The vanished hours of love that burn within the Ever-living still.

George William Russell

Poverty is uncomfortable but nine times out of ten the best thing that can happen to a young man is to be tossed overboard and compelled to sink or swim.

James A. Garfield

I believe that there is something in all of us that is seeking expression, that wants to be heard, that wants to be accepted and respected and loved. We each express ourselves in different ways - through manipulation or domination, through receiving and giving pain, through crying, through loving, through giving hope and inspiration to others. We are all seeking the same thing - expression of who we are and what we want from this life.

Robin D. Hart

Jesting is often only indigence of intellect.

Jean de la Bruyere

The pessimist complains about the wind;The optimist expects it to change;And the realist adjusts the sails.

William Arthur Ward

That which is done out of love always takes place beyond good and evil.

Friedrich Nietzsche

The Republican form of government is the highest form of government: but because of this it requires the highest type of human nature, a type nowhere at present existing.

Herbert Spencer

Small crimes always precedes great ones.

Jean Racine

Every man who has lived for fifty years has buried a whole world or even two; he has grown used to its disappearance and accustomed to the new scenery of another act: but suddenly the names and faces of a time long dead appear more and more often on his way, calling up series of shades and pictures kept somewhere, just in case, in the endless catacombs of the memory, making him smile or sigh, and sometimes almost weep.

Alexander Herzen

I'm not surfing much anymore, but I love hiking and gardening, and I'm always wearing a hat and sunblock.

Carolyn Murphy

I feel like I've reached an age where I can relax a little bit with the knowledge of what I've been through, take all that experience and use it. I love the challenge of trying to get back to where I've been, and beyond it.

Cathy Freeman

It's the height of folly to want to be the only wise one.

Francois de La Rochefoucauld
