Protecting the rights of even the least individual among us is basically the only excuse the government has for even existing.

This life as a simple citizen and laborer has its benefits not only for the person himself but perhaps also for his country. After all, there is room for only one Prime Minister, but for those who make the desert bloom there is room for hundreds, thousands and even millions. And the destiny of the state is in the hands of the many rather than of a single individual. There are times when an individual feels he should do those things which only can and should be done by the many.

David BenGurion

Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.

Helen Keller

Since I was an atheist for many years and came to believe in God through my studies in science, it frustrated me to see students and parents who viewed faith and science as enemies.

John Clayton

Fame is like caviar, you know - it's good to have caviar but not when you have it at every meal.

Marilyn Monroe

There is no self-knowledge but an historical one. No one knows what he himself is who does not know his fellow men, especially the most prominent one of the community, the master's master, the genius of the age.

Karl Wilhelm Friedrich Schlegel

Where there is a will there is a way. is an old true saying. He who resolves upon doing a thing, by that very resolution often scales the barriers to it, and secures its achievement. To think we are able, is almost to be so -- to determine upon attainment is frequently attainment itself.

Samuel Smiles

To be able to endure odium is the first art to be learned by those who aspire to power.

Lucius Annaeus Seneca

I was a teen star. That's disgusting enough.

John Cusack

It is the logic of consumerism that undermines the values of loyalty and permanence and promotes a different set of values that is destructive of family life.

Christopher Lasch

Community health centers do a great deal with limited resources. They provide critical medical care services to many who would otherwise have no other place to go or would end up in an emergency room.

Jan Schakowsky

Some mischievous people always there. Last several thousand years, always there. In future, also.

Dalai Lama

With sticky thinking you can become unstuck!
