Every revolution was first a thought in one man's mind and when the same thought occurs in another man, it is the key to that era.

I don't love you as if you were a rose of salt, topazor arrow of carnations that propagate fire:I love you as one loves certain dark things,secretly, between the shadow and the soul.

Pablo Neruda

The greatest tragedy in America is not the destruction of our natural resources, though that tragedy is great. The truly great tragedy is the destruction of our human resources by our failure to fully utilize our abilities, which means that most men and women go to their graves with their music still in them.

Oliver Wendell Holmes

It is comforting to believe that leaders who do terrible things are, in fact, mad. That way, all we have to do is make sure we don't put psychotics in high places and we've got the problem solved.

Thomas Wolfe

But one never does form a just idea of anybody beforehand. One takes up a notion and runs away with it.

Jane Austen

In this world nothing is certain but death and taxes.

Benjamin Franklin

Only times and places, only names and ghosts.

Aldous Huxley

If you know how rich you are, you are not rich. But me, I am not aware of the extent of my wealth. That's how rich we are.

Imelda Marcos

Every sweet has its sour; every evil its good.

The limitation of riots, moral questions aside, is that they cannot win and their participants know it. Hence, rioting is not revolutionary but reactionary because it invites defeat. It involves an emotional catharsis, but it must be followed by a sense of futility.

Martin Luther King, Jr., The Tru

Christ wants to lead men by their love, their personal love to Him, and the confidence of His personal love to them.

Horace Bushnell

Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.

Robert Frost

You don't know what you can get away with until you try.

Colin Powell
