Every man's life is a fairy-tale written by God's fingers.

Tyrants have always some slight shade of virtue; they support the laws before destroying them

Voltaire

People have been so busy relating to how I look, it's a miracle I didn't become a self-conscious blob of protoplasm.

Robert Redford

If we are bold, love strikes away the chains of fear from our souls.

Maya Angelou

A fact never went into partnership with a miracle. Truth scorns the assistance of wonders. A fact will fit every other fact in the universe, and that is how you can tell whether it is or is not a fact. A lie will not fit anything except another lie.

Robert Green Ingersoll

Don't change horses while crossing a stream.

Proverb

A great piece of literature does not try to coerce you to believe it or agree with it. A great piece of literature simply is. It is a vehicle of truth, but it is not a blueprint, and we tend to confuse the two.

Madeleine L'Engle

The essence of philosophy is that a man should so live that his happiness shall depend as little as possible on external things.

Epictetus

There are very few people who have done more than one Christmas album.

Isaac Hanson

Life is doubt, and faith without doubt is nothing but death.

Miguel de Unamuno

Paleoanthropology is not a science that ends with the discovery of a bone. One has to have the original to work with. It is a life-long task.

Richard Leakey

Nursing would be a dream job if there were no doctors.

Gerhard Kocher

When you've learned to laugh at the things that should be laughed at, and not to laugh at those that shouldn't, you've got wisdom and understanding.-Aunt Jimsie
