The people will save their government, if the government itself will allow them.

Abraham Lincoln

You can't live your life through your children.

Carl Lewis

In war, you win or lose, live or die - and the difference is just an eyelash.

Douglas MacArthur

The question arises as to whether it is possible not to live in the world of men and still to live in the world.

Louise Bernikow

Arthur Koestler

The true poem is the poet's mind.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

What's the best part of a movie? I love to know what my name is. It's just so fun. That's the first thing I ask. It's just fun because you have a different name in every movie.

Ruth Warrick

What I call middle-class society is any society that becomes rigidified in predetermined forms, forbidding all evolution, all gains, all progress, all discovery. I call middle-class a closed society in which life has no taste, in which the air is tainted, in which ideas and men are corrupt. And I think that a man who takes a stand against this death is in a sense a revolutionary.

Frantz Fanon

The church is always trying to get other people to reform; it might not be a bad idea to reform itself a little, by way of example

Mark Twain
