The depth of darkness to which you can descend and still live is an exact measure of the height to which you can aspire to reach.

I told the President, I told Rahm Emanuel and others in the administration that I thought the policy they took to try to bring about negotiations is counter-productive, because when you give the Palestinians hope that the United States will do its negotiating for them, they are not going to sit down and talk.

Many governments employ torture but this was the first time that the element of Saturnalia and pornography in the process had been made so clear to me. If you care to imagine what any inadequate or cruel man might do, given unlimited power over a woman, then anything that you can bring yourself to suspect was what became routine in ESMA, the Navy Mechanics School that became the headquarters of the business. I talked to Dr. Emilio Mignone, a distinguished physician whose daughter Monica had disappeared into the precincts of that hellish place.

Like hell itself the school was endorsed and blessed by priests, in case any stray consciences needed to be stilled.

Christopher Hitchens

Mia Wasikowska

You don't have a family doctor anymore like you did when you were a kid, who treated you throughout your life.

Mehmet Oz

Voltaire

Law never made men a whit more just.

Henry David Thoreau

Some really good things kind of swing both ways and I like to see people that can swing really, really, really sad and horrible and terrible and really, really, really beautiful and funny.

Beth Henley

For the sight of the angry weather saddens my soul and the sight of the town, sitting like a bereaved mother beneath layers of ice, oppresses my heart.
