No greater nor more affectionate honor can be conferred on an American than to have a public school named after him.

So the Marine Corps really did teach me to conquer fear, and then to go for higher causes, higher purposes.

Robert Kiyosaki

Religion is the idol of the mob; it adores everything it does not understand.

Frederick the Great

To pass from estrangement from God to be a son of God is the basic fact of conversion. That altered relationship with God gives you an altered relationship with yourself, with your brother man, with nature, with the universe.

E. Stanley Jones

As a child, I had to get up early for school or work. I'd get ready by myself. I'd set my alarm to wake me up very early in the morning, and be off to work, the family driver driving me every morning. I did it alone, my parents never coming in to wake me up.

Janet Jackson

Sometimes it's hard to believe what we are really.

Riyadh Razzaq

Contentment does not come from achievement. It comes from a relationship with the Lord.

Paul Henderson

It is a myth that art has to be sold. It is not like stocking a grocery store where people fill a pushcart. Art is a product that has no apparent need. The salesperson builds the need in the mind of the buyer.

Jack White

It is greatest to believe and to hope well of the world, because he who does so, quits the world of experience, and makes the world he lives in

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Stem cell research is the key to developing cures for degenerative conditions like Parkinson's and motor neuron disease from which I and many others suffer. The fact that the cells may come from embryos is not an objection, because the embryos are going to die anyway.

Stephen Hawking

It's at night, when perhaps we should be dreaming, that the mind is most clear, that we are most able to hold all our life in the palm of our skull. I don't know if anyone has ever pointed out that great attraction of insomnia before, but it is so; the night seems to release a little more of our vast backward inheritance of instincts and feelings; as with the dawn, a little honey is allowed to ooze between the lips of the sandwich, a little of the stuff of dreams to drip into the waking mind. I wish I believed, as J. B. Priestley did, that consciousness continues after disembodiment or death, not forever, but for a long while. Three score years and ten is such a stingy ration of time, when there is so much time around. Perhaps that's why some of us are insomniacs; night is so precious that it would be pusillanimous to sleep all through it! A bad night is not always a bad thing.

Brian W. Aldiss

It is an ancient political vehicle, held together by soft soap and hunger and with front-seat drivers and back-seat drivers contradicting each other in a bedlam of voices, shouting

Adlai Stevenson, On the Republic

It's not whether you get knocked down, it's whether you get up.

Vince Lombardi
