Even in the developing parts of the world, kids take to computers like fish to water.

Be a good animal, true to your animal instincts.

D. H. (David Herbert) Lawrence

I therefore declare, that if you wish any remission of the taxation which falls upon the homes of the people of England and Wales, you can only find it by reducing the great military establishments, and diminishing the money paid to fighting men in time of peace.

Richard Cobden

Every man is a part of each and our senses are attached to both. So when a man speaks of himself as a man, he is in matter; but when he speaks a scientific truth, he is out of matter and so far equal to god. So man's investigations are but an imitation of wisdom's experiments for his own happiness. And man not wanting to be outdone by his father tries to imitate what he sees and hears; this makes man a kind of progressive being. Man invents language from the fact that he cannot be satisfied to let God or wisdom dictate his acts, so he invents language to explain his wisdom. It has been said that language was invented to deceive others. In some cases I have no doubt but the world thinks it does but wisdom gives it another direction; or language acts to undeceive and it often exposes our ignorance.

Phineas Parkhurst Quimby, August

The revolution is not an apple that falls when ripe. You have to make it fall.

Ernesto Guevara

There were corpses here and there and pools of blood. I remember seeing a butterfly flutter up and down that street. Summer does not abdicate.

Victor Hugo

An age which is incapable of poetry is incapable of any kind of literature except the cleverness of a decadence.

Raymond Chandler

Opportunity makes a thief.

Francis Bacon

Pure truth cannot be assimilated by the crowd; it must be communicated by contagion.

Henri Frederic Amiel

If you want to be happy for life, love what you do.

Mary Higgins Clark

If I use the media, even with tricks, to publicize a black youth being shot in the back in Teaneck, New Jersey... then I should be praised for it, and it's more of a comment on them than me that it would take tricks to make them cover the loss of life.

Rev. Al Sharpton

Indulge not thyself in the passion of anger; it is whetting a sword to wound thine own breast, or murder thy friend.

Akhenaton

Habit is a cable; we weave a thread each day, and at last we cannot break it.

Horace Mann
