Morality is neither rational nor absolute nor natural. World has known many moral systems, each of which advances claims universality; all moral systems are therefore particular, serving a specific purpose for their propagators or creators, and enforcing a certain regime that disciplines human beings for social life by narrowing our perspectives and limiting our horizons.

To live we must conquer incessantly, we must have the courage to be happy.

Henri Frederic Amiel

Hope of ill gain is the beginning of loss.

Democritus

Prejudice, not being founded on reason, cannot be removed by argument

Samuel Johnson

I look at my little girl and I wonder what she's going to be and what she's going to do and what is it that leads girls certain directions in life. I think a lot of that goes back to what kind of father they had, and so it makes me want to be the best dad I can possibly be.

Jake Owen

A man whose mind feels that it is captive would prefer to blind himself to the fact. But if he hates falsehood, he will not do so; and in that case he will have to suffer a lot. He will beat his head against the wall until he faints. He will come to again

Simone Weil

Every attempt to make war easy and safe will result in humiliation and disaster.

William Tecumseh Sherman

If you are foe, we do not fear you. If you are friend, your foes will be taught the fear of us.

C.S. Lewis

The truth is the kindest thing we can give folks in the end.

Harriet Beecher Stowe

The nature of the movies is different than it was five years ago, and they're all driven by the possibilities of CGI, which means you can make anything happen on screen that you can possibly desire.

Tom Hanks

Music is the soul of language.

Max Heindel

Niches set back in the walls contained polished marble statues of entwined bodies. Will looked away from them hastily, and then back. It wasn't as if Magnus seemed to be paying attention to what Will was doing, and he'd honestly never imagined two people could get themselves into a position like that, much less make it look artistic.

Cassandra Clare

There are two kinds of truth; the truth that lights the way and the truth that warms the heart. The first of these is science, and the second is art. Without art science would be as useless as a pair of high forceps in the hands of a plumber. Without science art would become a crude mess of folklore and emotional quackery.

Raymond Chandler
