There is not in nature, a thing that makes man so deformed, so beastly, as doth intemperate anger.

If we really want to be full and generous in spirit, we have no choice but to trust at some level.

Rita Dove

As she had been walking from the ward to that room, she had felt such pure hatred that now she had no more rancor left in her heart. She had finally allowed her negative feelings to surface, feelings that had been repressed for years in her soul. She had actually FELT them, and they were no longer necessary, they could leave.

Paulo Coelho

To reason about love is to lose reason.

Boufflers

The blunting effects of slavery upon the slaveholder's moral perceptions are known and conceded the world over; and a priveleged class, an aristocracy, is but a band of slaveholders under another name.

Mark Twain, A Connecticut Yankee

Marriage hasn't been my thing. But gay people, knock yourselves out!

Ben Affleck

Not only does democracy make every man forget his ancestors, but also clouds their view of their descendants and isolates them from their contemporaries. Each man is for ever thrown back on himself alone, and there is danger that he may be shut up in the solitude of his own heart.

Alexis de Tocqueville

Some people are willing to betray years of friendship just to get a little bit of the spotlight.

Lauren Conrad

And let your best be for your friend. If he must know the ebb of your tide, let him know its flood also. For what is your friend that you should seek him with hours to kill? Seek him always with hours to live. For it is his to fill your need, but not your emptiness. And in the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter, and sharing of pleasures. For in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed.

Kahlil Gibran

[God] will not be used as a convenience. Men or nations who think they can revive the Faith in order to make a good society might just as well think they can use the stairs of heaven as a shortcut to the nearest chemist's shop.

C.S. Lewis

To see the earth as we now see it, small and beautiful in that eternal silence where it floats, is to see ourselves as riders on the earth together, brothers on that bright loveliness in the unending night -- brothers who see now they are truly brothers.

Archibald MacLeish

Nobody is ecstatic about it. It's ugly, it occupies or will occupy a piece of our property, it commits us to having it there for a long period of time. On the other hand, it would be a source of income ... and it does provide a service to the community.

Stephen Richards

I support health care for people. I want people well taken care of. But I also want health care that we can afford as a country. I have people and friends closing down their businesses because of Obamacare.
