You only have power over people so long as you don't take everything away from them. But when you've robbed a man of everything he's no longer in your power -- he's free again.

Truth indeed rather alleviates than hurts, and will always bear up against falsehood, as oil does above water.

Miguel de Cervantes

We are in a strange period of history in which a revolutionary has to be a patriot and a patriot has to be a revolutionary.

George Orwell

The heart may think it knows better: the senses know that absence blots people out. We really have no absent friends. The friend becomes a traitor by breaking, however unwillingly or sadly, out of our own zone: a hard judgment is passed on him, for all the pleas of the heart.

Elizabeth Bowen

I was planning on my future as a homeless person. I had a really good spot picked out.

Larry David

Words have no power to impress the mind without the exquisite horror of their reality.

Edgar Allan Poe

Mary Guyette

A man who first tried to guess 'what the public wants,' and then preached that as Christianity because the public wants it, would be a pretty mixture of fool and knave

C.S. Lewis

What can I know? What ought I to do? What can I hope?

Immanuel Kant

You may be a princess or the richest woman in the world, but you cannot be more than a lady.

Jennie Jerome Churchill

There is no single truth in a world ruled by many political parties.

Toba Beta

Poor people cannot rely on the government to come to help you in times of need. You have to get your education. Then nobody can control your destiny.

Charles Barkley

The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.

Mark Twain
