I've always had an inquisitive mind about everything from flowers to television sets to motor cars. Always pulled them apart - couldn't put 'em back, but always extremely interested in how things work.

What doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?

Bible

The test of man is how well he is able to feel about what he thinks. The test of a woman is how well she is able to think about what she feels.

Mary Mcdowell

The principles of a free constitution are irrecoverably lost, when the legislative power is nominated by the executive.

Edward Gibbon

Why are we talking about this good and evil? They're just names for sides. We know that.

Neil Gaiman

The problems that exist in the world today cannot be solved by the level of thinking that created them.

Albert Einstein

You can get through very serious and sometimes horrible and sometimes embarrassing and very awkward situations with humor. It gives us a way out.

Janet Evanovich

The past is our definition. We may strive with good reason to escape it, or to escape what is bad in it. But we will escape it only by adding something better to it.

Wendell Berry

Joy is not the same as pleasure or happiness. A wicked and evil man may have pleasure, while any ordinary mortal is capable of being happy. Pleasure generally comes from things, and always through the senses; happiness comes from humans through fellowship. Joy comes from loving God and neighbor. Pleasure is quick and violent, like a flash of lightning. Joy is steady and abiding, like a fixed star. Pleasure depends on external circumstances, such as money, food, travel, etc. Joy is independent of them, for it comes from a good conscience and love of God.

Fulton John Sheen

Without knowledge, life is not more than the shadow of death.

Moli

Prosperity is the best protector of principle.

Mark Twain

Conservatives are winning offices, and champions of big government are cleaning out their desks right now.

Rick Perry

Surely these women won't lose any more of their beauty and charm by putting a ballot in a ballot box once a year than they are likely to lose standing in foundries or laundries all year round. There is no harder contest than the contest for bread, let me tell you that.
