Tipper Gore

Don't live life hiding behind your past. Live for the moment. When you find someone you want to spend forever with, you don't let them go, whether forever turns out to be a day, a year or fifty years

Why is wisdom so fair? Why is beauty so wise?Because all else is temporary, while beauty and wisdom are the only real and constant aspects of truth that can be perceived by human means.And I don't mean the kind of surface beauty that fades with age, or the sort of shallow wisdom that gets lost in platitudes.True beauty grips your gut and squeezes your lungs, and makes you see with utmost clarity exactly is before you.True wisdom then steps in, to interpret, illuminate, and form a life-altering insight.

Vera Nazarian

If I were to be taken hostage, I would not plead for release nor would I want my government to be blackmailed.

If that were done, what gain would there be for terrorists in taking hostages?

Margaret Mead

If we resist our passions, it is more through their weakness than from our strength.

Francois de La Rochefoucauld

Anthony Robbins

A good politician is quite as unthinkable as an honest burglar.

H. L. Mencken

The absurd is born of the confrontation between the human call and the unreasonable silence of the world.

Albert Camus

I think what's always been interesting to me than the science and the criminality with this job is what happens to your persona, your disposition, after day in and day out dealing with life and death.

George Eads

All things are perceived in the light of charity, and hence under the aspect of beauty for beauty is simply reality seen with the eyes of love.
