Life is neither good or evil, but only a place for good and evil.

I am beginning to suspect all elaborate and special systems of education. They seem to me to be built up on the supposition that every child is a kind of idiot who must be taught to think.

Anne Sullivan

In opposition to this detachment, he finds an image of man which contains within itself man's dreams, man's illness, man's redemption from the misery of poverty - poverty which can no longer be for him a sign of the acceptance of life.

Salvatore Quasimodo

It is a wise man who knows where courage ends and stupidity begins.

Jerome Cady

Method goes far to prevent trouble in business: for it makes the task easy, hinders confusion, saves abundance of time, and instructs those that have business depending, both what to do and what to hope.

William Penn

When I'm ready, I plan to adopt. I still believe in family.

LaToya Jackson

I've had to be a man since I was 12 or 13. I had a job. And I was playing the piano for people twice my age. Handling responsibility is what makes a man a man.

Jamie Foxx

There is no argument in the world that carries the hatred that a relioious belief does. The more learned a man is, the less consideration he has for another man's belief.

Will Rogers

I get asked a lot about getting into politics. I say, 'Take a look at politics. You tell me what seems appealing about that.'

George Clooney

I'm a simple man. All I want is enough sleep for two normal men, enough whiskey for three, and enough women for four.

Joel Rosenberg

The worst enemy of life, freedom and the common decencies is total anarchy; their second worst enemy is total efficiency

Aldous Huxley

There is the truth of history, and there is the truth of what a person remembers. As {she} sat at the edge of {the lake}, memory blossoms floated unbounded, as though breathed, no words spoken. Like birds that fly across national borders, between countries at war at each other.

Rebecca Wells

The event of falling in love is of such a nature that we are right to reject as intolerable the idea that it should be transitory. In one high bound it has overleaped the massive of our selfhood; it has made appetite itself altruistic, tossed personal happiness aside as a triviality and planted the interests of another in the centre of our being. Spontaneously and without effort we have fulfilled the law (towards one person) by loving our neighbour as ourselves. It is an image, a foretaste, of what we must become to all if Love Himself rules in us without a rival. It is even (well used) a preparation for that.

C.S. Lewis
