The only method by which people can be supported is out of the effort of those who are earning their own way. We must not create a deterrent to hard work.

If a man has good manners and is not afraid of other people he will get by, even if he is stupid.

David Eccles

The essence of a free government consists in an effectual control of rivalries.

John Adams

I believe with all my heart that America remains 'the great idea' that inspires the world. It is a privilege to be born here. It is an honor to become a citizen here. It is a gift to raise your family here, to vote here, and to live here.

Arnold Schwarzenegger

Nobody loves a woman because she is handsome or ugly, stupid or intelligent. We love because we love.

Honore de Balzac

Love is much like a wild rose, beautiful and calm, but willing to draw blood in its defense.

Mark Overby

We here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain - that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom - and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

Abraham Lincoln

When you put your hand on the Bible, you are saying something much stronger than just telling your peers that you're going to tell the truth.

Lee Greenwood

They are all parts of time, and the past and future are created species of time, which we unconsciously but wrongly transfer to the eternal essence; for we say that he was, he is, he will be, but the truth is that is alone is properly attributed to him, and that was and will be only to be spoken of becoming in time, for they are motions, but that which is immovably the same cannot become older or younger by time, nor ever did or has become, or hereafter will be, older or younger, nor is subject at all to any of those states which affect moving and sensible things and of which generation is the cause. These are the forms of time, which imitates eternity and revolves according to a law of number. Moreover, when we say that what has become is become and what becomes is becoming, and that what will become is about to become and that the non-existent is non-existent-all these are inaccurate modes of expression...

Plato, Timaeus (Translated by Be

I don't enjoy good food. I don't enjoy flashy cars. I don't care if I live in a dump. I don't enjoy good clothes. This is the best I've dressed in months.

Jack Kevorkian

Can you think of anything more permanently elating than to know that you are on the right road at last?

Vernon Howard

I don't think any movie or any book or any work of art can solve the stalemate in the Middle East today. But it's certainly worth a try.

Steven Spielberg

If you just have a single problem to solve, then fine, go ahead and use a neural network. But if you want to do science and understand how to choose architectures, or how to go to a new problem, you have to understand what different architectures can and cannot do.
