Fight the good fight of faith, and God will give you spiritual mercies.

When a bachelor of philosophy from the Antilles refuses to apply for certification as a teacher on the grounds of his color I say that philosophy has never saved anyone. When someone else strives and strains to prove to me that black men are as intelligent as white men I say that intelligence has never saved anyone: and that is true, for, if philosophy and intelligence are invoked to proclaim the equality of men, they have also been employed to justify the extermination of men.

Frantz Fanon

One reason we lasted so long is that we usually played two people who were very much in love. As we were realistic actors, we became those two people. So we had a divertissement: I had an affair with him, and he with me.

Lynn Fontanne

The trouble with measurement is its seeming simplicity.

Life's most persistent and urgent question is, 'What are you doing for others?'

Martin Luther King Jr.

It is easy to talk of sitting at home contented, when others are seeing or making shows. But not to have been where it is supposed, and seldom supposed falsely, that all would go if they could; to be able to say nothing when everyone is talking; to have no opinion when everyone is judging; to hear exclamations of rapture without power to depress; to listen to falsehoods without right to contradict, is, after all, a state of temporary inferiority, in which the mind is rather hardened by stubbornness, than supported by fortitude. If the world be worth winning let us enjoy it, if it is to be despised let us despise it by conviction. But the world is not to be despised but as it is compared with something better.

Samuel Johnson

When you put down the good things you ought to have done, and leave out the bad ones you did do well, that's Memoirs.

Will Rogers

If a man had as many ideas during the day as he does when he has insomnia, he would make a fortune.

Griff Niblack

If a cat does something, we call it instinct if we do the same thing, for the same reason, we call it intelligence.

William Shakespeare

There are infinite numbers between 0 and 1.

John Green

Life is an error-making and an error-correcting process, and nature in marking man's papers will grade him for wisdom as measured both by survival and by the quality of life of those who survive.

Jonas Salk

The successful men of action are not sufficiently self-observant to know exactly on what their success depends.
