Nowadays, many Americans have forgotten the meaning and traditions of Memorial Day. At cemeteries across the country, the graves of the fallen are sadly ignored, and worse, neglected.

I do not trust those who make the vaccines, or the apparatus behind it all to push it on us through fear.

Billy Corgan

The teacher who would be true to his mission and accomplish the most good, must give prominence to moral as well as intellectual instruction.

Sheldon Jackson

I come bearing an olive branch in one hand, and the freedom fighter's gun in the other. Do not let the olive branch fall from my hand.

Yasser Arafat

I teach you the Superman. Man is something that should be overcome.

Friedrich Nietzsche

Narcissus does not fall in love with his reflection because it is beautiful, but because it is his. If it were his beauty that enthralled him, he would be set free in a few years by its fading.

W. H. Auden

As for myself: I had come to the conclusion that there was nothing sacred about myself or any human being, that we were all machines, doomed to collide and collide and collide. For want of anything better to do, we became fans of collisions. Sometimes I wrote well about collisions, which meant I was a writing machine in good repair. Sometimes I wrote badly, which meant I was a writing machine in bad repair. I no more harbored sacredness than did a Pontiac, a mousetrap, or a South Bend Lathe.

Kurt Vonnegut

Fear not the path of Truth for the lack of People walking on it.

Robert F. Kennedy

We never become really and genuinely our entire and honest selves until we are dead -- and not then until we have been dead years and years. People ought to start dead and then they would be honest so much earlier.

Mark Twain

I apologize for my terrible interview skills. I wasn't prepared to expose stories about something so special and wonderfully private that is happening in my life. I guess a part of me wishes that I'd never have to and that maybe I could protect this special time. I was dreaming.

Heath Ledger

We wander for distraction, but we travel for fulfillment.

Hilaire Belloc

Look beneath the surface; let not the several quality of a thing nor its worth escape thee.

Marcus Aurelius

Love the moment and the energy of that moment will spread beyond all boundaries.

Corita Kent
