Otto Dix

You must learn day by day, year by year to broaden your horizon. The more things you love, the more you are interested in, the more you enjoy, the more you are indignant about, the more you have left when anything happens.

Ethel Barrymore

Cleverness is not wisdom.

Euripides

Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.

The egoism which enters into our theories does not affect their sincerity; rather, the more our egoism is satisfied, the more robust is our belief.

George Eliot

Benjamin Disraeli

The limits of the possible can only be defined by going beyond them into the impossible.

Arthur C. Clarke

David Brin

Peace is its own reward.

Mahatma Gandhi

If you don't have any fight in you, you might as well be dead.

Scott Caan

Money is in some respects life's fire: it is a very excellent servant, but a terrible master.

P. T. Barnum
