To be like Christ is to be a Christian.

But men labor under a mistake. The better part of the man is soon plowed into the soil for compost. By a seeming fate, commonly called necessity, they are employed, as it says in an old book, laying up treasures which moth and rust will corrupt and thieves break through and steal. It is a fool's life, as they will find when they get to the end of it, if not before.

Henry David Thoreau

A man of genius can hardly be sociable, for what dialogues could indeed be so intelligent and entertaining as his own monologues?

Arthur Schopenhauer

Is an intelligent human being likely to be much more than a large-scale manufacturer of misunderstanding?

Philip Roth

Time is the least thing we have.

Ernest Hemingway

I think it's unethical to take money for poor quality performance.

Alvin Burger

I want the French people to respect values that allow each individual to practice his or her faith, but in the frame of our common rules of secularism.

Francois Hollande

For God to prove himself on demand, physically, would be a grave disappointment, and the strongest Christians should be considerably grateful that he chooses not to do so. The skeptic endlessly demands proof, yet God refuses to insult the true intelligence of man, the '6th sense', the chief quality, the acumen which distinguishes man from the rest of creation, faith.

Criss Jami

Procrastination is my sin. It brings me naught but sorrow. I know that I should stop it. In fact, I will--tomorrow!

Gloria Pitzer

To ask women to become unnaturally thin is to ask them to relinquish their sexuality.

Naomi Wolf

The four cornerstones of character on which the structure of this nation was built are: Initiative, Imagination, Individuality and Independence.

Edward Rickenbacker

I had dreams of catching the ball for the final out in the World Series and being mobbed by my teammates. Well, I guess all my dreams didn't come true.
