Hope is a good thing - maybe the best thing, and no good thing ever dies

You don't have a family doctor anymore like you did when you were a kid, who treated you throughout your life.

Mehmet Oz

She used to diet on any kind of food she could lay her hands on.

Arthur Baer

The atom bomb was no 'great decision.' It was merely another powerful weapon in the arsenal of righteousness.

Harry S. Truman

The wordwas born in the blood,grew in the dark body, beating,and took flight through the lips and the mouth.Farther away and nearerstill, still it camefrom dead fathers and from wondering races,from lands which had turned to stone,lands weary of their poor tribes,for when grief took to the roadsthe people set out and arrivedand married new land and waterto grow their words again.And so this is the inheritance;this is the wavelength which connects uswith dead men and the dawningof new beings not yet come to light.

Pablo Neruda, Fully Empowered (N

In my considered opinion, salary is payment for goods delivered and it must conform to the law of supply and demand. If, therefore, the fixed salary is a violation of this law - as, for instance, when I see two engineers leaving college together and both equally well trained and efficient, and one getting forty thousand while the other only earns two thousand , or when lawyers and hussars, possessing no special qualifications, are appointed directors of banks with huge salaries - I can only conclude that their salaries are not fixed according to the law of supply and demand but simply by personal influence. And this is an abuse important in itself and having a deleterious effect on government service.

Leo Tolstoy

We can only reason from what is; we can reason on actualities, but not on possibilities.

Henry Bolingbroke

I had seen birth and death but had thought they were different.

T. S. Eliot

There is no such thing as a little country. The greatness of a people is no more determined by their numbers than the greatness of a man is by his height.

Victor Hugo

We're not trying to prove the character of God through science. That's a bad idea. What I'm trying to do is clear away the misunderstandings, the debris that prevent people from accepting that God who wants to accept them.

Phillip E. Johnson

Appreciation of life itself, becoming suddenly aware of the miracle of being alive, on this planet, can turn what we call ordinary life into a miracle. We come awake to such a realization when we recognize our connection to a spiritual dimension.

Dan Wakefield

With all the technology we're inventing and what they're coming up with scientifically, people are having longer lifetimes. It's scary, but in the same sense it's also very exciting.

Brittany Murphy

O Lord, how many read the Word, and yet from vice are not deterred.
