Life is ever lord of Death And Love can never lose its own.

In the school of political projectors, I was but ill entertained, the professors appearing, in my judgment, wholly out of their senses; which is a scene that never fails to make me melancholy. These unhappy people were proposing schemes for persuading monarchs to choose favorites upon the score of their wisdom, capacity, and virtue; of teaching ministers to consult the public good; of rewarding merit, great abilities, and eminent services, of instructing princes to know their true interest, by placing it on the same foundation with that of their people; of choosing for employment persons qualified to exercise them; with many other wild impossible chimeras, that never entered before into the heart of man to conceive; and confirmed in me the old observation, that there is nothing so extravagant and irrational which some philosophers have not maintained for truth.

Jonathan Swift

From the minute I wake up until I go to bed I think about food.

Helena Christensen

A man who lives with nature is used to violence and is companionable with death. There is more violence in an English hedgerow than in the meanest streets of a great city.

P. D. James

Though the island of Great Britain exhibits but a small spot upon the map of the globe, it makes a splendid appearance in the history of mankind, and for a long space has been signally under the protection of God and a seat of peace, liberty and truth.

John Newton

Said in answer to the question: What would you advise a person to do if that person felt a nervous breakdown coming on?

Karl Menninger

We'll take the cake with the red cherry on top.

Navjot Singh Sidhu

Dare, dream, dance, smile, and sing loudly! And have faith that love is an unstoppable force!

Suzanne Brockmann

You will be required to do wrong no matter where you go. It is the basic condition of life, to be required to violate your own identity. At some time, every creature which lives must do so. It is the ultimate shadow, the defeat of creation; this is the curse at work, the curse that feeds on all life. Everywhere in the universe.

Philip K. Dick

Life is like a cash register, in that every account, every thought, every deed, like every sale, is registered and recorded.

Fulton John Sheen

This isn't life in the fast lane, it's life in the oncoming traffic.

Terry Pratchett

The sinews of war are infinite money.

Marcus Tullius Cicero

Labor disgraces no man unfortunately, you occasionally find men who disgrace labor.

Ulysses S. Grant
