Liberty doesn't work as well in practice as it does in speeches.

I call architecture frozen music.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

The fact my relationship with my son is so good makes me forgiving of my father and also appreciative.

Anthony Kiedis

The miracles of the church seem to me to rest not so much upon faces or voices or healing power coming suddenly near to us from afar off, but upon our perceptions being made finer, so that for a moment our eyes can see and our ears can hear what is there about us always.

Willa Cather

If you'll not settle for anything less than your best, you will be amazed at what you can accomplish in your lives.

Vince Lombardi

Angela Carter

Faith must be enforced by reason. When faith becomes blind it dies.

Mahatma Gandhi

The seed of God is in us. Given an intelligent and hard-working farmer, it will thrive and grow up to God, whose seed it is; and accordingly its fruits will be God-nature. Pear seeds grow into pear trees, nut seeds into nut trees, and God-seed into God.

Meister Eckhart

Thinking good thoughts is not enough, doing good deeds is not enough, seeing others follow your good examples is enough.

Doug Horton

If women were particular about men's characters, they would never get married at all.

George Bernard Shaw

Men of science in former ages worked in secret, and instead of publishing their discoveries, taught them in secret to carefully selected pupils.

Alfred Percy Sinnett

Fear is just not a part of my life - so much so that if it's involved in somebody else's life and they're close to me, I won't be around them.

Jeremy Renner

The ineffable joy of forgiving and being forgiven forms an ecstasy that might well arouse the envy of the gods.

Elbert Hubbard
