The feeling of your baby taking nourishment from your body for the first time is amazing, and it remains the most touching moment of my life.

Truth does not happen, it just is.

American Indian Proverb, Hopi

Lines slip easily down the accustomed grooves. The old designs are copied so glibly that we are half inclined to think them original, save for that very glibness.

Virginia Woolf

Stand straight, walk proud, have a little faith.

Garth Brooks

A state that suppresses all freedom of speech, and which by imposing the most terrible punishments, treats each and every attempt at criticism, however morally justified, and every suggestion for improvement as plotting to high treason, is a state that breaks an unwritten law.

Kurt Huber

Happiness is not a horse, you cannot harness it.

Proverb

Stop living a day at a time and stop worrying about age.

Helen Reddy

America is the wealthiest nation on Earth, but its people are mainly poor, and poor Americans are urged to hate themselves.... It is in fact a crime for an American to be poor, even though America is a nation of poor. Every other nation has folk traditions of men who were poor but extremely wise and virtuous, and therefore more estimable than anyone with power and gold. No such tales are told by American poor. They mock themselves and glorify their betters.

Kurt Vonnegut

I pray we are still a young and courageous nation, that we have not grown so old and so fat and so prosperous that all we can think about is to sit back with our arms around our money bags. If we choose to do that I have no doubt that the smoldering fires will burst into flame and consume us -- dollars and all.

Lyndon B. Johnson

We who in engage in nonviolent direct action are not the creators of tension. We merely bring to the surface the hidden tension that is already alive.

Martin Luther King, Jr.

The curse of the romantic is a greed for dreams, an intensity of expectation that, in the end, diminishes the reality.

Marya Mannes

These are weighty secrets, and we must whisper them.

Sarah Chauncey Woolsey, Secrets

Neither in this world nor elsewhere is there any happiness in store for him who always doubts.

Bhagavad Gita
