Teamwork is what the Green Bay Packers were all about. They didn't do it for individual glory. They did it because they loved one another.

Vince Lombardi

Every natural fact is a symbol of some spiritual fact.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Do you know what we are those of us who count as pillars of society? We are society's tools, neither more nor less.

Henrik Ibsen

I love the whole makeup of men - that they never mature and are always just boys.

Krista Allen

It was scarcely possible that the eyes of contemporaries should discover in the public felicity the latent causes of decay and corruption. This long peace, and the uniform government of the Romans, introduced a slow and secret poison into the vitals of the empire. The minds of men were gradually reduced to the same level, the fire of genius was extinguished, and even the military spirit evaporated. The natives of Europe were brave and robust. Spain, Gaul, Britain, and Illyricum, supplied the legions with excellent soldiers, and constituted the real strength of the monarchy. Their personal valour remained, but they no longer possessed that public courage which is nourished by the love of independence, the sense of national honour, the presence of danger, and the habit of command. They received laws and governors from the will of their sovereign, and trusted for their defence to a mercenary army. The posterity of their boldest leaders was contented with the rank of citizens and subjects. The most aspiring spirits resorted to the court or standard of the emperors; and the deserted provinces, deprived of political strength or union, insensibly sunk into the languid indifference of private life.

Edward Gibbon

Love consists of a commitment which limits one's freedom - it is a giving of the self, and to give oneself means just that: to limit one's freedom on behalf of another.

Pope John Paul II

If people are going to judge me without fully understanding the content of my character, then their opinion just isn't worth it.

What pornography is really about, ultimately, isn't sex but death.

Susan Sontag

We have our own history, our own language, our own culture. But our destiny is also tied up with the destinies of other people - history has made us all South Africans.

Let me remind you that credit is the lifeblood of business, the lifeblood of prices and jobs.

Herbert Hoover, Address at Des M

But a short time elapsed after the death of the great reformer of the Jewish religion, before his principles were departed from by those who professed to be his special servants, and perverted into an engine for enslaving mankind, and aggrandizing their oppressors in Church and State.

Thomas Jefferson

He that takes a wife, takes care
