Let everyone try and find that as a result of daily prayer he adds something new to his life, something with which nothing can be compared.

The Indian...stands free and unconstrained in Nature, is her inhabitant and not her guest, and wears her easily and gracefully. But the civilized man has the habits of the house. His house is a prison.

Henry David Thoreau

Involuntary mental hospitalization is like slavery. Refining the standards for commitment is like prettifying the slave plantations. The problem is not how to improve commitment, but how to abolish it.

Thomas Szasz

I feel that any form of so called psychotherapy is strongly contraindicated for addicts. The question Why did you start using narcotics in the first place? should never be asked. It is quite as irrelevant to treatment as it would be to ask a malarial patient why he went to a malarial area.

William S. Burroughs

Tranquil pleasures last the longest; we are not fitted to bear the burden of great joys.

Christian Nevell Bovee

Don't let yesterday use up too much of today.

American Indian Proverb, Cheroke

When you rise in the morning, give thanks for the light, for your life, for your strength. Give thanks for your food and for the joy of living. If you see no reason to give thanks, the fault lies in yourself.

Tecumseh

Life is the only art that we are required to practice without preparation, and without being allowed the preliminary trials, the failures and botches, that are essential for training.

Lewis Mumford

Before you decide if someone is beautiful close your eyes and listen.

Evette Carter

Poetry and prayer are very similar.

Carol Ann Duffy

The first misconception is that embryonic stem cell research is not legal. The fact is, embryonic stem cell research is completely legal. Research on embryonic stem cells has taken place for years.

Virginia Foxx

The art of living is more like wrestling than dancing.

Marcus Aurelius

With the breast-feeding, I really love the bonding. Real life is more important to me.
