We may not be able to offer long-term employment, but we should try to offer long-term employability.

Ideally, love is unconditional; practically, it is more often the opposite.

T.F. Hodge

All good music resembles something. Good music stirs by its mysterious resemblance to the objects and feelings which motivated it.

Jean Cocteau

Experience was of no ethical value. It was merely the name men gave to their mistakes. Moralists had, as a rule, regarded it as a mode of warning, had claimed for it a certain ethical efficacy in the formation of character, had praised it as something that taught us what to follow and showed us what to avoid. But there was no motive power in experience. It was as little of an active cause as conscience itself. All that it really demonstrated was that our future would be the same as our past, and that the sin we had done once, and with loathing, we would do many times, and with joy.

Oscar Wilde

A woman's asking for equality in the church would be comparable to a black person's demanding equality in the Ku Klux Klan.

Mary Daly

He that loveth, flieth, runneth, and rejoiceth. He is free, and cannot be held in. He giveth all for all, and hath all in all, because he resteth in one highest above all things, from whom all that is good flows and proceeds.

Thomas Kempis

The society based on production is only productive, not creative.

Albert Camus

Retirement may be looked upon either as a prolonged holiday or as a rejection, a being thrown on to the scrap-heap.

Simone de Beauvoir

The harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph.

Thomas Paine

By adopting a wonderful mutt, you'll save a life and help reduce animal homelessness while also boosting your chances of a more robust new furry friend, as mixed-breed dogs have demonstrated better health and longer life spans than their purebred cousins.

Ingrid Newkirk

Rejoicing in our joy, not suffering over our suffering, makes someone a friend.

Friedrich Nietzsche

Only solitary men know the full joys of frienship. Others have their family but to a solitary and an exile, his friends are everything.

Willa Cather

Have you ever thought, thought your heart would break? Wished you could cut open your chest tear it out to stop the pain? Why don´t you riot like everyone else. I don't care, life's too long. You can have any man you want. I want him...except him. Always suspected the world didn't smell of fresh paint and flowers. Smells of piss and human sweat If there could have been more moments like this.

Sarah Kane
