What is the destiny of man, but to fill up the measure of his sufferings, and to drink his allotted cup of bitterness?

The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.

Eleanor Roosevelt

You must have been warned against letting the golden hours slip by but some of them are golden only because we let them slip by.

James M. Barrie

If Moses had gone to Harvard Law School and spent three years working on the Hill, he would have written the Ten Commandments with three exceptions and a saving clause.

Charles Morgan

It is the story I hoped to tell. It is the story that lies around the edges of the photograph, or at the end of the newspaper account. It's about the lies we tell others to protect them, and about the lies we tell ourselves in order not to acknowledge what we can't bear: that we are alive, for instance, and eating lunch, while bombs are falling, and refugees are crammed into camps, and the news come toward us every hour of the day. And what, in the end, do we do?

Sarah Blake

There was never yet an uninteresting life. Such a thing is an impossibility. Inside of the dullest exterior there is a drama, a comedy, and a tragedy.

Mark Twain

But my view is that you need a system at the border. You need some fencing but you need technology. You need boots on the ground. And then you need to have interior enforcement of our nation's immigration laws inside the country. And that means dealing with the employers who still consistently hire illegal labor.

Janet Napolitano

The minimum we should hope for with any display technology is that it should do no harm.

Edward Tufte

Go to the effort. Invest the time. Write the letter. Make the apology. Take the trip. Purchase the gift. Do it. The seized opportunity renders joy. The neglected brings regret.

Max L. Lucado

A gentleman who had been very unhappy in marriage, married immediately after his wife died: Johnson said, it was the triumph of hope over experience.

Samuel Johnson

I think my first big purchase was actually for my mom. She had one of those '90s TVs in her living room that's like a 10x10 brick, so I purchased her a flatscreen for her living room.

Dave Franco

The strong man is the one who is able to intercept at will the communication between the senses and the mind.

Napoleon Bonaparte

Great men are little men expanded; great lives are ordinary lives intensified.
