Great minds think alike, but lovers think as one.

I am fascinated by all the new technology that creates places for us to meet in what is called cyberspace. I understand what it must have meant for the rebellions in the 19th century, especially in 1830 and 1848, when the mass circulated newspaper became so important for the spreading of information.

Henning Mankell

If information and knowledge are central to democracy, they are conditions for development.

Kofi Annan

He'll cheat without scruple, who can without fear

Benjamin Franklin

We hurt so much because we have lost a part of ourselves. If we have loved much, we must have given much also, and when everything's over, we feel as though we have lost everything.

Jocelyn Soriano

The power of the white world is threatened whenever a black man refuses to accept the white world's definitions.

James A. Baldwin

Lightning is the shorthand of a storm, and tells of chaos.

Eric Mackay

By all means, marry. If you get a good wife, you'll become happy if you get a bad one, you'll become a philosopher.

Socrates

The individual who wants to reach the top in business must appreciate the might of the force of habit and must understand that practices are what create habits. He must be quick to break those habits that can break him and hasten to adopt those practices that will become the habits that help him achieve the success he desires.

J. Paul Getty

Thou wilt find rest from vain fancies if thou doest every act in life as though it were thy last.

Aristotle

Above all, don't lie to yourself. The man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to a point that he cannot distinguish the truth within him, or around him, and so loses all respect for himself and for others. And having no respect he ceases to love.

Fyodor Dostoyevsky

Government has the role of suiting people for freedom. People aren't made for freedom spontaneously. There's sort of a 19-year race between when people are born and when they become adults. And government has a role in making them, at the end of 19 years, suited to be upright, trustworthy repositories of popular sovereignty.

George Will

Genius is an infinite capacity for taking pains.

Thomas Carlyle
