I should feel the air move against me, and feel the things I touched, instead of having only to look at them. I'm sure life is all wrong because it has become much too visual - we can neither hear nor feel nor understand, we can only see. I'm sure that is entirely wrong.

You can accomplish by kindness what you cannot by force.

Publilius Syrus

The new freedom of expression brought by the Internet goes far beyond politics. People relate to each other in new ways, posing questions about how we should respond to people when all that we know about them is what we have learned through a medium that permits all kinds of anonymity and deception.

Peter Singer

Confidence awakens confidence.

Friedrich Von Sachsen

A peaceful soul haunts the warring mind.

Iimani David

Members rise from CMG (known sometimes in Whitehall as Call Me God) to KCMG (Kindly Call Me God) to GCMG (God Calls Me God).

Anthony Sampson

The most notable feature of a disturbance in your city last summer, was the hanging of some working people by other working people. It should never be so. The strongest bond of human sympathy, outside of the family relation, should be one uniting all working people, of all nations, and tongues, and kindreds.

Abraham Lincoln

All wars are civil wars, because all men are brothers.

Francois Fenelon

But we are the people of England; and we have not spoken yet. Smile at us, pay us, pass us. But do not quite forget.

G. K. Chesterton

If you must play, decide upon three things at the start: the rules of the game, the stakes, and the quitting time.

Chinese Proverb

Human beings hardly ever learn from the experience of others. They learn; when they do, which isn't often, on their own, the hard way.

Robert A. Heinlein

I hope that posterity will judge me kindly, not only as to the things which I have explained, but also to those which I have intentionally omitted so as to leave to others the pleasure of discovery.

Rene Descartes

The best thing about giving of ourselves is that what we get is always better than what we give. The reaction is greater than the action.
