A marriage is a series of friendships. Love serves as its underlying theme. Friendships provide it with the new challenges around which the relationship further develops. Each type of friendship with ones partner comes into being, rises to a peak of enthusiasm, and then wanes away in our cedar chest of sentimental values. Every once in a while we go to the chest and draw out a friendship item to give us a shot in the arm. Then we put it away till another day.

Wars begin in the minds of men, and in those minds, love and compassion would have built the defenses of peace.

U. Thant

Sometimes, if you want to be happy, you've got to run away to Bath and marry a punk rocker.

Julie Powell

There is great treasure there behind our skull and this is true about all of us. This little treasure has great, great powers, and I would say we only have learnt a very, very small part of what it can do.

Isaac Bashevis Singer

I would hope they would be our fellow artists, rather than trying to emulate or idolize clowns like us.

Maynard James Keenan

If most of us are ashamed of shabby clothes and shoddy furniture, let us be more ashamed of shabby ideas and shoddy philosophies.

Albert Einstein

Life, misfortunes, isolation, abandonment, poverty, are battlefields which have their heroes; obscure heroes, sometimes greater than the illustrious heroes

Victor Hugo

You're not Forsaken. You're Chosen for Purpose.

Vanessa Richardson

Democrats think the country works better with a strong middle class, real opportunities for poor people to work their way into it and a relentless focus on the future, with business and government working together to promote growth and broadly shared prosperity. We think 'we're all in this together' is a better philosophy than 'you're on your own.'

William J. Clinton

All virtue is summed up in dealing justly.

Aristotle

I have had my dance with Folly, nor do I shirk the blame;I have sipped the so-called Wine of Life and paid the price of shame;But I know that I shall find surcease, the rest my spirit craves,Where the rainbows play in the flying spray,'Mid the keen salt kiss of the waves.

Eugene O'Neill, Free

To be in hell is to drift; to be in heaven is to steer.

George Bernard Shaw

Half the states have stopped making civics and government a requirement for high school. Half.

Sandra Day O'Connor
