What would I have done if I'd been put to the test? Would I have risked my own life for people I hardly knew? Probably, I would have looked the other way at best or become another apologist for evil at worst.

Evolution seems to close the heart to some of the plainest spiritual truths while it opens the mind to the wildest guesses advanced in the name of science.

William Jennings Bryan

An Englishman thinks he is moral when he is only uncomfortable.

George Bernard Shaw

Anytime you cast a movie and you need someone famous in the lead part, you're a prisoner of whoever happens to be famous in the six-month window in which you're trying to get a film financed.

Alexander Payne

He looked into the crowd for approval, saw his mother and father. He waved and they waved back. Smiles and Indian teeth. They were both drunk. Everything familiar and welcome. Everything beautiful.

Sherman Alexie

Love has features which pierce all hearts, he wears a bandage which conceals the faults of those beloved. He has wings, he comes quickly and flies away the same.

Voltaire

As the time goes by, you change, your learn new things, your attitude is different. For the moment, I'm still enjoying ski racing so much that it would be difficult for me to think about ending my career.

Hermann Maier

When liberty returns, I will return.

Victor Hugo

We seek our friend not sacredly, but with an adulterate passion which would appropriate him to ourselves

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Is the conclusion that the universe was designed - and that the design extends deeply into life - science, philosophy, religion, or what? In a sense it hardly matters. By far the most important question is not what category we place it in, but whether a conclusion is true. A true philosophical or religious conclusion is no less true than a true scientific one. Although universities might divide their faculty and courses into academic categories, reality is not obliged to respect such boundaries.

Michael J. Behe

To me, money is the ability to create lifelong experiences for my family and myself, to educate my children and a way to give back to humanity.

Cat Cora

Life is a gift of the immortal Gods, but living well is the gift of philosophy

Seneca

Do your best and let God do the rest.

Ben Carson
