In matters of truth and justice, there is no difference between large and small problems, for issues concerning the treatment of people are all the same.

I have experienced jealousy, possessiveness, verbal abuse and violence from men, but I have also experienced jealousy, possessiveness, verbal abuse and violence from women, usually when I failed to respond to their advances.

I don't think I can play any other way but all out. I enjoy the game so much because I'm putting so much into it.

People get a bad impression of it by continually trying to treat it as if it was a bank clerk, who ought to be on time on Tuesday next, instead of philosophically seeing it as a painter, who may do anything so long as you don't try to predict what.

Katharine Whitehorn

Every baby born into the world is a finer one than the last

Charles Dickens

Life would be tragic if it weren't funny.

Stephen Hawking

The repose of nations cannot be secure without arms. Armies cannot be maintained without pay, nor can the pay be produced without taxes.

One of the keys to wealth is to understand why & how the distance from 1 to 1 million is greater than the distance from 3 million to 5 million.

Dan Rather

Life is filled with unanswered questions, but it is the courage to seek those answers that continues to give meaning to life. You can spend your life wallowing in despair, wondering why you were the one who was led towards the road strewn with pain, or you can be grateful that you are strong enough to survive it.

J.D. Stroube
