We looked at each other standing on the podium, and I think we all were tearing up. But we had to keep it cool. I think we did. Then we let out a breath.

Fate chooses our relatives, we choose our friends.

Jacques Delille

As the eye naturally seeks the light and vision, and our body naturally desires food and drink, so our mind is possessed with a becoming and natural desire to become acquainted with the truth of God and the causes of things.

Origen

In your own life it's important to know how spectacular you are.

Steve Maraboli

Walking back to happiness with you, Said farewell to lonliness I knew, Laid aside foolish pride, Learnt the truth from tears I cried.

Stephen Jay Gould

You must not blame me if I do talk to the clouds.

Henry David Thoreau

James Thurber

The essence of science is that it is always willing to abandon a given idea for a better one; the essence of theology is that it holds its truths to be eternal and immutable.

H.L. Mencken

He was just a coward and that was the worst luck any man could have.

Ernest Hemingway

So to hope to be able to have peace, to be able to have justice and environmental balance, are consequences of our behavior, not just our intentions.

Godfrey Reggio
