A man with outward courage dares to die; a man with inner courage dares to live.

We emphasize that we believe in change because we were born of it, we have lived by it, we prospered and grew great by it. So the status quo has never been our god, and we ask no one else to bow down before it.

Carl T. Rowan

Religion it self is nothing else but Love to God and Man.He that lives in Love lives in God, says the Beloved Disciple: And to be sure a Man can live no where better. It is most reasonable Men should value that Benefit, which is most durable. Now Tongues shall cease, and Prophecy fail, and Faith shall be consummated in Sight, and Hope in Enjoyment; but Love remains.Love is indeed Heaven upon Earth; since Heaven above would not be Heaven without it: For where there is not Love; there is Fear: But perfect Love casts out Fear. And yet we naturally fear most to offend what we most Love. What we Love, we

William Penn, Fruits of Solitude

Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves like locked rooms and like books that are written in a very foreign tongue. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps you will find them gradually, without noticing it, and live along some distant day into the answer.

Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a

Temper your enjoyments with prudence, lest there be written on your heart that fearful word satiety.

Francis Quarles

Comment l'Histoire pourrait-elle mieux servir la vie qu'en attachant ? leur patrie et aux coutumes de leur patrie les races et les peuples moins favorisés, en leur donnant des goûts sédentaires, ce qui les empêche de chercher mieux ? l'étranger, de rivaliser dans la lutte pour parvenir ? ce mieux? Parfois cela paraît être de l'entêtement et de la déraison qui visse en quelque sorte l'individu ? tels compagnons et ? tel entourage, ? telles habitudes laborieuses, ? tels stérile coteau. Mais c'est la déraison la plus salutaire, celle qui profite le plus ? la collectivité. Chacun le sait, qui s'est rendu compte des terribles effets de l'esprit d'aventure, de la fièvre d'émigration, quand ils s'emparent de peuplades entières, chacun le sait, qui a vu de près un peuple ayant perdu la fidélité ? son passé, abandonné ? une chasse fiévreuse de la nouveauté, ? une recherche perpétuelle des éléments étrangers. Le sentiment contraire, le plaisir que l'arbre prend ? ses racines, le bonheur que l'on éprouve ? ne pas se sentir né de l'arbitraire et du hasard, mais sorti d'un passé héritier, floraison, fruit , ce qui excuserait et justifierait même l'existence : c'est l? ce que l'on appelle aujourd'hui, avec une certaine prédilection, le sens historique.Deuxième Considération intempestive. ch. 3

Friedrich Nietzsche

There was a time when the world acted on books; now books act on the world.

Joseph Joubert

What impresses men is not mind, but the result of mind.

Walter Bagehot

One day you can be a kid, but another day you have to be like this is your job, you play tennis. You have to work for that.

Martina Hingis

Eulogies are like babies. They're more pleasurable to create than to deliver.

Bob Blazich

For a long time many believed that there would be an automatic adjustment and counted on a rapid increase in the wages of the emerging nations, on our advances in technology and the costs of transport preventing disruption. But this reassuring analysis is out of date.

Laurent Fabius

And we are never too old to study the Bible. Each time the lessons are studied comes some new meaning, some new thought which will make us better.

John D. Rockefeller

The individual must not merely wait and criticize, he must defend the cause the best he can. The fate of the world will be such as the world deserves.
