Memory is the basis of every journey.

Which death is preferably to every other? The unexpected.

Julius Caesar

Only enemies speak the truth friends and lovers lie endlessly, caught in the web of duty.

Stephen King

In truth, the gold standard is already a barbarous relic.

John Maynard Keynes

It is now conventional wisdom that Americans do not care why we went to war in Iraq, that it is enough that the world is better off without Saddam Hussein.

Adam Schiff

Chance does not speak essentially through words nor can it be seen in their convolution. It is the eruption of language, its sudden appearance. It's not a night twinkle with stars, an illuminated sleep, nor a drowsy vigil. It is the very edge of consciousness.

Michel Foucault

Liberty is being free from the things we don't like in order to be slaves of the things we do like.

Ernest Benn

I think Russian people are learning that democracy is not an alien thing it's not a western invention.

Garry Kasparov

Enthusiasm is the inspiration of everything great. Without it no man is to be feared, and with it none despised.

Christian Nevell Bovee

The common denominator all Latinos have is that we want some respect. That's what we're all fighting for.

Cristina Saralegui

untuk hidup sendirian, orang harus menjadi binatang atau dewa--kata Aristoteles. ada yang ketiga: orang harus menjadi keduanya, yaitu seorang filsuf

Friedrich Nietzsche

Nay, be a Columbus to whole new continents and worlds within you, opening new channels, not of trade, but of thought. Every man is the lord of a realm beside which the earthly empire of the Czar is but a petty state, a hummock left by the ice. Yet some can be patriotic who have no self-respect, and sacrifice the greater to the less. They love the soil which makes their graves, but have no sympathy with the spirit which may still animate their clay. Patriotism is a maggot in their heads.What was the meaning of that South-Sea Exploring Expedition, with all its parade and expense, but an indirect recognition of the fact that there are continents and seas in the moral world to which every man is an isthmus or an inlet, yet unexplored by him, but that it is easier to sail many thousand miles through cold and storm and cannibals, in a government ship, with five hundred men and boys to assist one, than it is to explore the private sea, the Atlantic and Pacific Ocean of one's being alone.

Henry David Thoreau, Walden, Ch.

People often claim to hunger for truth, but seldom like the taste when it's served up.

George R.R. Martin
