Keep a cool head and a warm heart.

I really think the Patriot Act violates our Constitution. It was, it is, an illegal act. The Congress, the Senate and the president cannot change the Constitution.

Peter Camejo

Hate is too great a burden to bear. It injures the hater more than it injures the hated.

Coretta Scott King

The facts of science, as they appeared to him, fed the flame in his soul, and in its light, he saw into the depths of the world.

Bertrand Russell

One picture is worth 1,000 denials.

Ronald Reagan

Reflect on your present blessings, of which every man has many; not on your past misfortunes of which all men have some

Charles Dickens

Sometimes parents don't find what they're looking for it their child, so they plant seeds for what they'd like to grow there instead. I've witnessed this with the former hockey player who takes his son out to skate before he can even walk. Or in the mother who gave up her ballet dreams when she married, but now scrapes her daughter's hair into a bun and watched from the wings of the stage. We are not, as you'd expect, orchestrating their lives; we are not even trying for a second chance. We are hoping that if this one thing takes root, it might take up enough light and space to keep something else from developing in our children: the disappointment we've already lived.

Jodi Picoult

The scholar cannot understand the will to power, not a cause recognized by science, which made Alexander different from others, because the scholar neither has it nor does his method permit him to have it or see it.

Allan Bloom

The key is to get to know people and trust them to be who they are. Instead, we trust people to be who we want them to be - and when they're not, we cry.

David Duchovny

Let us love nobly, and live, and add again years and years unto years, till we attain to write threescore: this is the second of our reign.

John Donne

Perhaps, to the uninformed, it may appear unaccountable that a man should be able to retain in his memory such a variety of learning but the close alliance with each other, of the different branches of science, will explain the difficulty.

Marcus V. Pollio

Do not go where the path may lead; go instead where there is no path and leave a trail

Ralph Waldo Emerson

The minute anyone's getting anxious I say, You must eat and you must sleep. They're the two vital elements for a healthy life.

Francesca Annis
