Government shouldn't tell you whom to marry.

The brave and bold persist even against fortune; the timid and cowardly rush to despair though fear alone.

Tacitus

We must safely secure our border by investing in more law enforcement and technology, and receiving cooperation from the Mexican government.

Timothy Murphy

Man's greatness lies in his power of thought.

Blaise Pascal

A wise old owl sat on an oak; The more he saw the less he spoke; The less he spoke the more he heard; Why aren't we like that wise old bird?

Edward Hersey Richards

Let go the lure The striving to unmake; Behold the truth Whenever heart may ache There is a glory In a great mistake.

Nathalia Crane

We shouldn't feel restricted by our sexuality, and our sexuality doesn't have to be a cultural choice. That's an amazing variety of music within those five main performers.

Neil Tennant

Wilhelm Dilthey

War: a massacre of people who don't know each other for the profit of people who know each other but don't massacre each other.

Paul Valery

One of the various theories proposed to explain the negative result of the famous Michelson-Morley experiment with light waves (conceived to measure the absolute space), was based on the ballistic hypothesis, i.e. on postulating that the speed of light predicted by Maxwell's equations was not given as relative to the medium but as relative to the transmitter (firearm). Had that been the case, the experiment negative results would have not caused such perplexity and frustration (as we shall see in forthcoming sections).

Felix Alba-Juez

You can't depend on your eyes when your imagination is out of focus.

Mark Twain

A refined nature is vexed by knowing that some one owes it thanks, a coarse nature by knowing that it owes thanks to some one

Friedrich Nietzsche
