There is special providence in the fall of a sparrow

William Shakespeare

Sympathy is two hearts tugging at one load.

Charles Henry Parkhurst

Edward Bernays

History offers no evidence for the proposition that the assignment of women to military combat jobs is the way to win wars, improve combat readiness, or promote national security.

Phyllis Schlafly

To be sick is to enjoy monarchical prerogatives.

Charles Lamb

Such young unfurrowed souls roll to meet each other like two velvet peaches that touch softly and are at rest; they mingle as easily as two brooklets that ask for nothing but to entwine themselves and ripple with ever-interlacing curves in the leafiest hiding-places.

George Eliot

He who reigns within himself and rules passions, desires, and fears is more than a king.

John Milton

The unreality of the past weeks lifted like a fog, but its residue remained. All of the past is like that, but most especially the parts that are out of the ordinary.

There are some good people. But a good chunk of them will lie for no reason at all - it'll be ten o'clock and they'll tell you it's nine. You're looking at the clock and you can't even fathom why they're lying. They just lie because that's what they do.

John Cusack

He was not thinking that the Christian law which he had wanted to follow all his life prescribed that he forgive and love his enemies; but the joyful feeling of love and forgiveness of his enemies filled his soul.

Leo Tolstoy

The alchemists in their search for gold discovered many other things of greater value.

Arthur Schopenhauer

Wouldn't it be great if we could look forward to a whole world in which no child will be left behind?

Colin Powell
