She had never imagined she had the power to make someone else so happy. And not a magical power, either--a purely human one.

If a conservative is a liberal who's been mugged, a liberal is a conservative who's been arrested.

Tom Wolfe

The power of a glance has been so much abused in love stories, that it has come to be disbelieved in. Few people dare now to say that two beings have fallen in love because they have looked at each other. Yet it is in this way that love begins, and in this way only.

Victor Hugo

Justice and power must be brought together, so that whatever is just may be powerful, and whatever is powerful may be just.

Blaise Pascal

Through spontaneity we are re-formed into ourselves. It creates an explosion that for the moment frees us from handed-down frames of reference, memory choked with old facts and information and undigested theories and techniques of other people's findings. Spontaneity is the moment of personal freedom when we are faced with reality, and see it, explore it and act accordingly. In this reality the bits and pieces of ourselves function as an organic whole. It is the time of discovery, of experiencing, of creative expression.

Viola Spolin

Wherever smart people work, doors are unlocked.

Steve Wozniak

If I had to refute all the other articles of the Jewish faith, I should be obliged to write against them as much and for as long a time as they have used for inventing their lies - that is, longer than two thousand years

Martin Luther King Jr.

To work -- to work! It is such infinite delight to know that we still have the best things to do.

Katherine Mansfield

It is precisely our job as Catholics to speak the truth as plainly and precisely as we can.

Sargent Shriver

If you would lift me up you must be on higher ground.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

The only perfect love to be found on earth is not sexual love, which is riddled with hostility and insecurity, but the wordless commitment of families, which takes as its model mother-love. This is not to say that fathers have no place, for father-love, with its driving for self-improvement and discipline, is also essential to survival, but that uncorrected father-love, father-love as it were practiced by both parents, is a way to annihilation.

Germaine Greer

The Ten Commandments have never been replaced as the moral basis upon which society rests.

Edwin Louis Cole

The object of pure physics is the unfolding of the laws of the intelligible world the object of pure mathematics that of unfolding the laws of human intelligence.

James Joseph Sylvester
