There are no dreams too large, no innovation unimaginable and no frontiers beyond our reach.

Thomas Jefferson

A man who pretends to understand women is bad manners. For him to really to understand them is bad morals.

Henry James

Courage becomes a worthwhile and meaningful virtue when it is regarded not so much as a willingness to die manfully but as a determination to live decently.

Thomas S. Monson

There is no society known where a more or less developed criminality is not found under different forms. No people exists whose morality is not daily infringed upon. We must therefore call crime necessary and declare that it cannot be non-existent, that the fundamental conditions of social organization, as they are understood, logically imply it.

Emile Durkheim

Richard Nixon is a no good, lying b-----d. He can lie out of both sides of his mouth at the same time, and if he ever caught himself telling the truth, he'd lie just to keep his hand in.

Harry S. Truman

The love of money grows as the money itself grows.

Juvenal

Come live with me, and be my love, and we will all the pleasures prove.

Christopher Marlowe

Our friends are generally ready to do everything for us, except the very thing we wish them to do.

William Hazlitt
