President Obama's version of America is a divided one - pitting us against each other based on our income level, gender, and social status. His policies have failed! We are not better off than we were 4 years ago, and no rhetoric, bumper sticker, or campaign ad can change that.

'Age' is the acceptance of a term of years. But maturity is the glory of years.

Martha Graham

Always bear in mind that your own resolution to succeed is more important than any one thing.

Abraham Lincoln

Force is not a remedy.

John Bright

If people take anything from my music, it should be motivation to know that anything is possible as long as you keep working at it and don't back down.

Eminem

What I like about cities is that everything is king size, the beauty and the ugliness.

Joseph Brodsky

Our lives are not determined by what happens to us but by how we react to what happens, not by what life brings to us, but by the attitude we bring to life. A positive attitude causes a chain reaction of positive thoughts, events, and outcomes. It is a catalyst, a spark that creates extraordinary results.

Anon.

I have seen, and heard, much of Cockney impudence before now; but never expected to hear a coxcomb ask two hundred guineas for flinging a pot of paint in the public's face.

John Ruskin

A lie which is half a truth is ever the blackest of lies.

Alfred Tennyson

Who would dare assign to art the sterile function of imitating nature?

Charles Baudelaire

There is no sea more dangerous than the ocean of practical politics none in which there is more need of good pilotage and of a single, unfaltering purpose when the waves rise high.

Thomas Huxley

Modern science is fast-moving, and no laboratory can exist for long with a program based on old facilities. Innovation and renewal are required to keep a laboratory on the frontiers of science.

Burton Richter

First sign of madness, talking to your own head.
