We love the ability of the people to influence the actions of decision-makers, of lawmakers and presidents to be removed from or elevated to office by the will of voters, and of the community to connect amongst diverse populations through the ballot box.

Our government has kept us in a perpetual state of fear - kept us in a continuous stampede of patriotic fervor - with the cry of grave national emergency.

Douglas MacArthur

He that is proud eats up himself: pride is his own glass, his own trumpet, his own chronicle.

William Shakespeare

Beauty is only skin deep, and the world is full of thin skinned people

Richard Armour

I can believe anything provided it is incredible.

Oscar Wilde

What the eyes don't see, the heart can't feel.

Dia Reeves

Never lend if you need repayment; never give where you want a return.

Lindsey Davis

Remove the temptation of idleness and cupids bow is useless.

Ovid

I like it when somebody tells me a story, and I actually really feel that that's becoming like a lost art in American cinema.

Quentin Tarantino

I can have my goals, and I can have my dreams. My goal is to make the finals and improve my position. I want to run all decent races. I don't want to look back and say I ran a terrible race.

Oscar Pistorius

I was married by a judge. I should have asked for a jury.

Groucho Marx

I learnt pity, sympathy, and what it was like to be at the other end of the stick. Such lessons can't be learnt in lecture halls.

Lionel Blue

I definitely gravitate towards quality genre projects and genre of any kind whether it's science fiction, horror or really anything. I'm just drawn to quality. I don't think 'Darkness Falls' is horror; there isn't any gore by any stretch of the imagination.
