Forgiveness is the answer to the child's dream of a miracle by which what is broken is made whole again, what is soiled is made clean again.

The elite are the men of religion, political leaders, media and press people, and teachers. Everyone can understand the truth and know what is right. These have the responsibility of showing this right and truth to the people. They should not remain silent....It is the responsibility of people to look for right and truth. As they hear me now, they should not accept everything I say. Even the masses of Hezbollah and the resistance should not do so....Forget what my faith is and what yours is. Hear what I say and see what I do and hear what others say and see what they do, and then decide.

Sayed Hassan Nasrallah

That which is common to the greatest number has the least care bestowed upon it. Every one thinks chiefly of his own, hardly at all of the common interest; and only when he is himself concerned as an individual. For besides other considerations, everybody is more inclined to neglect the duty which he expects another to fulfill.

Aristotle

And by the way, that is the single most important thing we could do in terms of reducing our deficit. That's why we did it.

Barack Obama

Acquaintance. A person whom we know well enough to borrow from, but not well enough to lend to.

Ambrose Bierce

I get up in the morning with an idea for a three-volume novel and by nightfall it's a paragraph in my column.

Don Marquis

It is the great business of every Christian to save souls. People complain that they do not know how to take hold of this matter. Why, the reason is plain enough; they have never studied it. They have never taken the proper pains to qualify themselves for the work. If you do not make it a matter of study, how you may successfully act in building up the kingdom of Christ, you are acting a very wicked and absurd part as a Christian.

Charles Finney

Love brings to light a lover's noble and hidden qualities-his rare and exceptional traits: it is thus liable to be deceptive of his normal qualities.

Friedrich Nietzsche

Any form of art is a form of power it has impact, it can affect change - it can not only move us, it makes us move.

Ossie Davis

Both young children and old people have a lot of time on their hands. That's probably why they get along so well.

Jonathan Carroll

Listening well and answering well is one of the greatest perfections that can be obtained in conversation.

Francois de La Rochefoucauld

Why would I spend my time writing software in a language below the grade of love, if I can use one that makes my brain sing?

David Heinemeier Hansson

the doer is merely a fiction added to the deed the deed is everything.

Friedrich Nietzsche
