I believe in an open mind, but not so open that your brains fall out.

Victor Hugo

When the doctrine of allegiance to party can utterly up-end a man's moral constitution and make a temporary fool of him besides, what excuse are you going to offer for preaching it, teaching it, extending it, perpetuating it? Shall you say, the best good of the country demands allegiance to party? Shall you also say it demands that a man kick his truth and his conscience into the gutter, and become a mouthing lunatic, besides?

Mark Twain

We are particularly interested in the mental health programs and policies that support our troops and their families before, during, and after deployment to Iraq and Afghanistan.

Jules Renard

Live your questions now, and perhaps even without knowing it, you will live along some distant day into your answers.

William Law

The force of character is cumulative

Ralph Waldo Emerson
