My father always taught me to appreciate what you're fortunate to have and give back to those who need it. No part of our society is more important than the children, especially the ones who need our help.

It is only as we develop others that we permanently succeed.

Harvey S. Firestone

'Tis all men's office to speak patience To those that wring under the load of sorrow; But no man's virtue nor sufficiency To be so moral when he shall endure The like himself

William Shakespeare

Atheism is so senseless. When I look at the solar system, I see the earth at the right distance from the sun to receive the proper amounts of heat and light. This did not happen by chance.

Isaac Newton

I thought that somehow your life would be much different when you're famous... and it's not. You just buy more stuff.

Nicole Sullivan

The purpose of education is to replace an empty mind with an open one.

Malcolm Forbes

To show the world what long experience gains, requires not courage, though it calls for pains but at life's outset to inform mankind is a bold effort of a valiant mind.

George Crabbe

In the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years.

Abraham Lincoln

We're failing our children with education, we're failing our environment.

Carol Moseley Braun

Suffer no anxiety, for he who is a sufferer of anxiety becomes regardless of enjoyment of the world and the spirit, and contraction happens to his body and soul.

Zoroaster

Wit as an instrument of revenge is as infamous as art is as a means of sensual titillation.

Karl Wilhelm Friedrich Schlegel

Whenever you don't know someone and you overhear their problems they always sound so trivial.

Cat Agonis

When the voice of your friend or the page of your book sinks into democratic equality with the pattern of the wallpaper, the feel of your clothes, your memory of last night, and the noises from the road, you are falling asleep. The highly selective consciousness enjoyed by fully alert men, with all its builded sentiments and consecrated ideals, has as much to be called real as the drowsy chaos, and more.

C.S. Lewis
