Love is a game that two can play and both win.

A steady patriot of the world alone, The friend of every country but his own.

George Canning

For me, hard work represents the supreme luxury of life.

Albert Greenfield

True wisdom lies in gathering the precious things out of each day as it goes by.

E. S. Bouton

The obscurest epoch is to-day.

Robert Louis Stevenson

It's really amazing that in the age of unbelief, as a smart man called it, there isn't even more fraud. After all, with no God, there's no one to ever call you to account, and no accounting at all if you can get away with it.

Peter Bichsel

O Lord our Father, our young patriots, idols of our hearts, go forth to battle -- be Thou near them! With them -- in spirit -- we also go forth from the sweet peace of our beloved firesides to smite the foe. O Lord our God, help us to tear their soldiers to bloody shreds with our shells; help us to cover their smiling fields with the pale forms of their patriot dead; help us to drown the thunder of the guns with the shrieks of their wounded, writhing in pain; help us to lay waste their humble homes with a hurricane of fire; help us to wring the hearts of their unoffending widows with unavailing grief; help us to turn them out roofless with little children to wander unfriended the wastes of their desolated land in rags and hunger and thirst, sports of the sun flames of summer and the icy winds of winter, broken in spirit, worn with travail, imploring Thee for the refuge of the grave and denied it -- for our sakes who adore Thee, Lord, blast their hopes, blight their lives, protract their bitter pilgrimage, make heavy their steps, water their way with their tears, stain the white snow with the blood of their wounded feet! We ask it, in the spirit of love, of Him Who is the Source of Love, and Who is the ever-faithful refuge and friend of all that are sore beset and seek His aid with humble and contrite hearts. Amen.

Mark Twain

For what is love itself, for the one we love best? - an enfolding of immeasurable cares which yet are better than any joys outside our love.

George Eliot

Libraries are the thin red line between civilization and barbarism.

Neil Gaiman

..plainly put, I loved the way he effortlessly forced my pen to act savagely, to swerve course without warning.

Coco J. Ginger

Over the last four years, I've made a habit of coming into my office in the morning and just getting to work.

Seth Green
