The only thing that makes one place more attractive to me then another is the quantity of heart I find in it.

Jane Welsh Carlyle

It's my belief that history is a wheel. 'Inconstancy is my very essence,' says the wheel. Rise up on my spokes if you like but don't complain when you're cast back down into the depths. Good time pass away, but then so do the bad. Mutability is our tragedy, but it's also our hope. The worst of time, like the best, are always passing away.

Boethius (Anicius Manlius Severi

In times of great stress or adversity, it's always best to keep busy, to plow your anger and your energy into something positive.

This extraordinary war in which we are engaged falls heavily upon all classes of people, but the most heavily upon the soldier. For it has been said, all that a man hath will he give for his life; and while all contribute of their substance the soldier puts his life at stake, and often yields it up in his countrys cause. The highest merit, then, is due to the soldier.

Abraham Lincoln

Morality is largely a matter of geography.

Elbert Hubbard

... the mind was designed not to defend what we want, but to discover what is ultimately true, which should shape our wants and satisfy them more deeply with God. The purpose of the mind is not to rationalize subjective preferences, but to recognize objective reality and to help the heart revel in God.

John Piper

Marriage must be a relation either of sympathy or of conquest.

The effort to understand the universe is one of the very few things that lifts human life a little above the level of farce, and gives it some of the grace of tragedy.

Steven Weinberg

What mattered was stil there. That was what they all felt, and what surprised them all. What mattered couldnt be shaken.

Jodi Lynn Anderson

The successor to politics will be propaganda. Propaganda, not in the sense of a message or ideology, but as the impact of the whole technology of the times.

Marshall McLuhan

If you want him to mourn, you had best leave him nothing.

Marcus Valerius Martial
