Racism? But isn't it only a form of misanthropy?

Joseph Brodsky

To love and be loved is the great happiness of existence.

Sydney Smith

What is termed Sin is an essential element of progress. Without it the world would stagnate, or grow old, or become colorless. By its curiosity Sin increases the experience of the race. Through its intensified assertion of individualism it saves us from monotony of type. In its rejection of the current notions about morality, it is one with the higher ethics.

Oscar Wilde

We shouldn't be surprised that conditions in the universe are suitable for life, but this is not evidence that the universe was designed to allow for life. We could call order by the name of God, but it would be an impersonal God. There's not much personal about the laws of physics.

Stephen Hawking

Politics have no relation to morals.

Niccolo Machiavelli

Know then thyself, presume not God to scan The proper study of mankind is man.

Alexander Pope

Absolute faith corrupts as absolutely as absolute power.

Eric Hoffer

Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful people with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan 'press on' has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.

Calvin Coolidge

A sense of humor keen enough to show a man his own absurdities will keep him from the commission of all sins, or nearly all, save those worth committing.

Samuel Butler

Obstinacy is the result of the will forcing itself into the place of the intellect.

Arthur Schopenhauer
