When the number of factors coming into play in a phenomenological complex is too large scientific method in most cases fails.

Discretion is being able to raise your eyebrow instead of your voice.

Glorious, stirring sight! The poetry of motion! The real way to travel! The only way to travel! Here today -- in next week tomorrow! Villages skipped, towns and cities jumped -- always somebody else's horizons! O bliss! O poop-poop! O my! O my!

Kenneth Grahame

Truth gets well if she is run over by a locomotive, while error dies of lockjaw if she scratches her finger.

William Cullen Bryant

My focus as part of the leadership is to keep talking about the independent voters, independent voters - how do we get the independent voters back?

Henry Cuellar

A wounded deer leaps the highest.

Emily Dickinson

For any new technology there is always controversy and there always some fear associated with it. I think that's just the price of being first sometimes.

Hugh Grant

We were wise indeed, could we discern truly the signs of our own time; and by knowledge of its wants and advantages, wisely adjust our own position in it. Let us, instead of gazing idly into the obscure distance, look calmly around us, for a little, on the perplexed scene where we stand. Perhaps, on a more serious inspection, something of its perplexity will disappear, some of its distinctive characters and deeper tendencies more clearly reveal themselves; whereby our own relations to it, our own true aims and endeavors in it, may also become clearer.

Thomas Carlyle

Politicians should never put themselves first: governments should put people first and all of us should put our country first.

If I was afraid of being killed, I would never speak out against the government.

Aung San Suu Kyi

Scars are just another kind of memory.

M.L. Stedman

And above all things, never think that you're not good enough yourself. A man should never think that. My belief is that in life people will take you at your own reckoning

Anthony Trollope

Every actual State is corrupt. Good men must not obey the laws too well. What satire on government can equal the severity of censure conveyed in the word Politic, which now for ages has signified cunning, intimating that the State is a trick?

Ralph Waldo Emerson
