With a new familiarity and a flesh-creeping homeliness entirely of this unreal, materialistic world, where all sentiment is coarsely manufactured and advertised in colossal sickly captions, disguised for the sweet tooth of a monstrous baby called the Public, the family as it is, broken up on all hands by the agency of feminist and economic propaganda, reconstitutes itself in the image of the state.

Bienvenido a la raza humana. Nadie controla su propia vida, Ender. Lo más que puedes hacer es elegir ser controlado por personas buenas, por personas que te quieran.

Orson Scott Card

Neither great poverty nor great riches will hear reason.

Henry Fielding

I've always been very impatient. At age 10 I frankly found life boring, and I can remember age 9 having the awful thought, as it seems now looking back on it, A war! That should liven things up a bit!

Roger Bannister

I'm the one who gets called up about a problem. I'm the one who gets called up about the street lighting and the abandoned car. I'm the one who gets blamed if the police don't arrive. I'm the one they blame if a city truck is broken down.

Richard M. Daley

To devise an information processing system capable of getting along on its own - it must handle its own problems of programming, bookkeeping, communication and coordination with its users. It must appear to its users as a single, integrated personality.

Cliff Shaw

Peter O'Connor

Men are respectable only as they respect.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Sinful and forbidden pleasures are like poisoned bread they may satisfy appetite for the moment, but there is death in them at the end.

Tryon Edwards

We Hoosiers hold to some quaint notions. Some might say we 'cling' to them, though not out of fear or ignorance. We believe in paying our bills. We have kept our state in the black throughout the recent unpleasantness, while cutting rather than raising taxes, by practicing an old tribal ritual - we spend less money than we take in.

Mitch Daniels

A reactionary is a somnambulist walking backwards.

Franklin D. Roosevelt

I used to have this little mouse. I buy birds from the pet store and I let them go.

Ziggy Marley

Most of my songs are about Jesus. Most of my songs are about the idea that there is salvation, and that there is a Savior. But I won't mention his name in a song just to get a cheap play.

Peter Townsend
