When I joined Bill Clinton's start-up presidential campaign in 1991, I was confident that women would play an ever more important role, but I never gave a minute's thought to what would happen if we won. When we did - and I became the first woman to serve as White House press secretary - it changed my life. But it didn't change the world.

There are no ordinary moments.

Dan Millman

The principle of majority rule is the mildest form in which the force of numbers can be exercised. It is a pacific substitute for civil war in which the opposing armies are counted and the victory is awarded to the larger before any blood is shed. Except in the sacred tests of democracy and in the incantations of the orators, we hardly take the trouble to pretend that the rule of the majority is not at bottom a rule of force.

Walter Lippmann

After all my possessions had been burned, God gave me the wisdom to return to Jerusalem.

Shmuel Y. Agnon

I have become rather like King Midas, except that everything turns not into gold but into a circus.

Albert Einstein

Relationships are like a dance, with visible energy racing back and forth between partners. Some relationships are the slow, dark dance of death.

Colette Dowling

These heroes are dead. They died for liberty - they died for us. They are at rest. They sleep in the land they made free, under the flag they rendered stainless, under the solemn pines, the sad hemlocks, the tearful willows, and the embracing vines. They sleep beneath the shadows of the clouds, careless alike of sunshine or of storm, each in the windowless Place of Rest. Earth may run red with other wars - they are at peace. In the midst of battle, in the roar of conflict, they found the serenity of death. I have one sentiment for soldiers living and dead: cheers for the living; tears for the dead.

Robert G. Ingersoll

I like men who have a future and women who have a past.

Oscar Wilde

Never tell a young person that anything cannot be done. God may have been waiting centuries for someone ignorant enough of the impossible to do that very thing.

John Andrew Holmes

What ever truth drops on it eventually grinds to a powder.

Art Blakey

The mass of mankind are evidently slavish in their tastes, preferring a life suitable to beasts

Aristotle

Every moment has its pleasures and its hope.

Jane Austen

Golf is assuredly a mystifying game. It would seem that if a person has hit a golf ball correctly a thousand times, he should be able to duplicate the performance at will. But this is certainly not the case.
