A man has no religion who has not slowly and painfully gathered one together, adding to it, shaping it; and one's religion is never complete and final, it seems, but must always be undergoing modification.

Activist government overreach and ongoing economic stagnation have shown us why Washington should not try to displace what is best left to civil society.

Paul Ryan

You just wait. I'm going to be the biggest Chinese Star in the world.

Bruce Lee

Facts and not merely opinions are what we want. Emotionalism is not a substitute for the truth.

Joseph Lewis

Acquire a government over your ideas, that they may come down when they are called, and depart when they are bidden.

Isaac Watts

Expose yourself to your deepest fear; after that, fear has no power, and the fear of freedom shrinks and vanishes. You are free.

Jim Morrison

Hope is independent of the apparatus of logic.

Norman Cousins

A million dollars sounds like a lot, I know. Especially when you're young. But you can't let money erode your principles or you'll wind up with nothing.

Wendelin Van Draanen

There are two times in a man's life when he should not speculate: when he can't afford it, and when he can.

Mark Twain

We respond to a drama to that extent to which it corresponds to our dream life.

David Mamet

The Bible will keep you from sin, or sin will keep you from the Bible.

Dwight L. Moody

Successful people appear to be traveling along one continual, successful road. What is not apparent is the perseverance it takes following each defeat to keep you on that road. No one I know of has ever experienced one success after another without defeats, failures, disappointments, and frustrations galore along the way. Learning to overcome those times of agony is what separates the winners from the losers.

G. Kingsley Ward

I like not only to be loved, but also to be told I am loved.

George Eliot
