Health consists of having the same diseases as one's neighbors.

I prefer the most unfair peace to the most righteous war.

Marcus Tullius Cicero

I tell people I'm too stupid to know what's impossible. I have ridiculously large dreams, and half the time they come true.

Debi Thomas

The average man votes below himself; he votes with half a mind or a hundredth part of one. A man ought to vote with the whole of himself, as he worships or gets married. A man ought to vote with his head and heart, his soul and stomach, his eye for faces and his ear for music; also (when sufficiently provoked) with his hands and feet. If he has ever seen a fine sunset, the crimson color of it should creep into his vote. The question is not so much whether only a minority of the electorate votes. The point is that only a minority of the voter votes.

G. K. Chesterton

A timid person is frightened before a danger, a coward during the time, and a courageous person afterwards.

Jean Paul Richter

There is nothing in the world more powerful than an idea. No weapon can destroy it; no power can conquer it except the power of another idea.

James R. Smith

Wealth is well known to be a great comforter.

Plato

Mankind needs new law to embrace new science.

Toba Beta

I decided Conrad was right after all. Ilsa was meant to be with Laszlo. That was the way it was always supposed to end. Rick was nothing but a tiny piece of her past, a piece that she would always treasure, but that was all, because history is just that. History.

Jenny Han

The Impossible Generalized Man today is the critic who believes in loving those unworthy of love as well as those worthy --yet believes this only insofar as no personal risk is entailed. Meaning he loves no one, worthy or no. This is what makes him impossible.

Nelson Algren

We need better neighbors, neighbors that care about the schools in their neighborhood whether they have kids in them or not, because they know that the health and vitality of that neighborhood depends on it.

Thomas Friedman

The habit of writing for my eye is good practice. It loosens the ligaments.

Virginia Woolf

Glasgow's not a media center. When you're there, when you're hanging about, you feel quite detached from musical movements or fashions or anything like that. You do feel quite alone, in a good way.

Alex Kapranos
