I trained to be a priest - started to. I went to seminary school when I was 11. I wanted to be a priest, but when they told me I could never have sex, not even on my birthday, I changed my mind.

Nothing else in the world...not all the armies...is so powerful as an idea whose time has come.

Victor Hugo

Either men will learn to live like brothers, or they will die like beasts.

Max Lerner

I'm not certain, but I have a little gypsy blood in me. And my mother always told me that her grandma could give someone the evil eye, and I'd better not cross her because she had some of that blood in her. Mother always believed that she could predict the future, and she had dreams that came true.

I think when you move past your fear and you go after your dreams wholeheartedly, you become free.

LL Cool J

In each action we must look beyond the action at our past, present, and future state, and at others whom it affects, and see the relations of all those things. And then we shall be very cautious.

Blaise Pascal

It is impossible for us, with our limited means, to attempt to educate the body of the people. We must at present do our best to form a class who may be interpreters between us and the millions whom we govern; a class of persons, Indian in blood and colour, but English in taste, in opinions, in morals, and in intellect. To that class we may leave it to refine the vernacular dialects of the country, to enrich those dialects with terms of science borrowed from the Western nomenclature, and to render them by degrees fit vehicles for conveying knowledge to the great mass of the population.Macaulay's minute on education arguing for the use of English in India

Thomas Babington Macaulay

My mom just didn't put a very high premium on me being like really famous or really wealthy or anything.

Martha Plimpton

Patriotism ruins history.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

There is no calamity greater than lavish desires. There is no greater guilt than discontentment. And there is not greater disaster than greed.
