Too many people miss the silver lining because they're expecting gold.

Happiness lies neither in vice nor in virtue; but in the manner we appreciate the one and the other, and the choice we make pursuant to our individual organization.

Marquis de Sade

He was one of those men, and they are not the commonest, of whom we can know the best only by following them away from the marketplace, the platform, and the pulpit, entering with them into their own homes, hearing the voice with which they speak to the young and aged about their own hearthstone, and witnessing their thoughtful care for the everyday wants of everyday companions, who take all their kindness as a matter of course, and not as a subject for panegyric.

George Eliot

Suspicion is a heavy armor and with its weight it impedes more than it protects.

Robert Burns

The horse is prepared against the day of battle, but safety is of the Lord.

Bible

Whatever satisfies the soul is truth.

Walt Whitman

In the absence of love, there is nothing worth fighting for.

Elijah Wood

If we are to live together in peace, we must come to know each other better.

Lyndon B. Johnson

Capital is a result of labor, and is used by labor to assist it in further production. Labor is the active and initial force, and labor is therefore the employer of capital.

Henry George

I put all my genius into my life; I put only my talent into my works.

Oscar Wilde

I confess that I do not understand the principle on which the power to fix a minimum for the wages of women can be denied by those who admit the power to fix a maximum for their hours of work. I fully assent to the proposition that here as elsewhere the distinctions of the law are distinctions of degree, but I perceive no difference in the kind or degree of interference with liberty, the only matter with which we have any concern, between the one case and the other. The bargain is equally affected whichever half you regulate. It will need more than the Nineteenth Amendment to convince me that there are no differences between men and women, or that legislation cannot take those differences into account.

Oliver Wendell Holmes

If you want to sing out, sing out, and if you want to be free, be free, cause there's a million ways to be, you know that there are...

Cat Stevens

It is more profitable for me to have a team that is in contention for most of the season but finishes about fourth. A team like that will draw well enough during the first part of the season to show a profit for the year, and you don't have to give the players raises when they don't win.http://www.baseballlibrary.com/baseballlibrary/ballplayers/M/Mack_Connie.stm
