There are no necessary evils in government. Its evils exist only in its abuses.

Judging whether life is or is not worth living amounts to answering the fundamental question of philosophy. All the rest--whether or not the world has three dimensions, whether the mind has nine or twelve categories--comes afterward. These are games; one must first answer.

Albert Camus

It is worse than a crime: it is a mistake.

Joseph Fouche

Edible. Good to eat and wholesome to digest, as a worm to a toad, a toad to a snake, a snake to a pig, a pig to a man, and a man to a worm.

Ambrose Bierce

Journalism without a moral position is impossible. Every journalist is a moralist. It's absolutely unavoidable. A journalist is someone who looks at the world and the way it works, someone who takes a close look at things every day and reports what she sees, someone who represents the world, the event, for others. She cannot do her work without judging what she sees.

Marguerite Duras

Envy among other ingredients has a mixture of the love of justice in it. We are more angry at undeserved than at deserved good-fortune.

William Hazlitt

I have also considered many scientific plans during my pushing you around in your pram!

Albert Einstein

Be NOBLE! and the nobleness that liesIn other men, sleeping, but never dead,Will rise in majesty to meet thine own.

James Russell Lowell

Oh my precocious one, she said. You never fail to charm me. Bisexual is it, how Byronic and charming. Doesn't that double's one's chances for love? I'm so delighted.

Anne Rice

A writer needs three things, experience, observation, and imagination, any two of which, at times any one of which, can supply the lack of the others.

William Faulkner

Don't be afraid to make a mistake. But make sure you don't make the same mistake twice.

Akio Morita

This would only come if you have a revolutionary change in technology like the jet brought about.

Adolf Galland

Thought is the sculptor who can create the person you want to be.

Henry David Thoreau
