Every person is a star; it just depends upon how close you are to him, that you realize his true potential and power.

I never doubted that equal rights was the right direction. Most reforms, most problems are complicated. But to me there is nothing complicated about ordinary equality.

Alice Paul

In it he proves that all things are true and states how the truths of all contradictions may be reconciled physically, such as for example that white is black and black is white; that one can be and not be at the same time; that there can be hills without valleys; that nothingness is something and that everything, which is, is not. But take note that he proves all these unheard-of paradoxes without any fallacious or sophistical reasoning.

Savinien Cyrano De Bergerac

Isn't it funny how the memories you cherish before a breakup can become your worst enemies afterwards? The thoughts you loved to think about, the memories you wanted to hold up to the light and view from every angle--it suddenly seems a lot safer to lock them in a box, far from the light of day and throw away the key. It's not an act of bitterness. It's an act if self-preservation. It's not always a bad idea to stay behind the window and look out at life instead, is it?

Ally Condie

A man should never be ashamed to own that he is wrong, which is but saying in other words that he is wiser today than he was yesterday.

Alexander Pope

There are no better cosmetics than a severe temperance and purity, modesty and humility, a gracious temper and calmness of spirit and there is no true beauty without the signatures of these graces in the very countenance.

Arthur Helps

Accuracy is to a newspaper what virtue is to a lady, but a newspaper can always print a retraction.

Adlai Stevenson

Technology will eventually destroy the way schools are run now.

Daniel Greenberg

Along the iron veins that traverse the frame of our country, beat and flow the fiery pulses of its exertion, hotter and faster every hour. All vitality is concentrated through those throbbing arteries into the central cities; the country is passed over like a green sea by narrow bridges, and we are thrown back in continually closer crowds on the city gates.

John Ruskin

Work with your competitors when the interest of the community and planet are at stake.

Simon Mainwaring

My daughters, your daughters, our daughters deserve safety, protection, and the freedom to make their own choices about their personal lives and their physical selves.

Carre Otis

Temporary success can be achieved in spite of lack of other fundamental qualities, but no advancements can be maintained without hard work.

William Feather

One loyal friend is worth ten thousand relatives.
