To punish drug takers is like a drunk striking the bleary face it sees in the mirror. Drugs will not be brought under control until society itself changes, enabling men to use them as primitive man did: welcoming the visions they provided not as fantasies, but as intimations of a different, and important, level of reality.

Everyone knows that if you've got a brother, you're going to fight.

Liam Gallagher

Life is lived on the edge.

Will Smith

The sailor is frankness, the landsman is finesse. Life is not a game with the sailor, demanding the long head

Herman Melville, Billy Budd

Every man builds his world in his own image. He has the power to choose, but no power to escape the necessity of choice.

Ayn Rand

You who write, choose a subject suited to your abilities and think long and hard on what your powers are equal to and what they are unable to perform.

Horace

The well adjusted make poor prophets. A pleasant existence blinds us to the possibilities of drastic change. We cling to what we call our common sense, our practical point of view. Actually, these are names for an all-absorbing familiarity with things as they are.... Thus it happens that when the times become unhinged, it is the practical people who are caught unaware...still clinging to things that no longer exist.

Eric Hoffer

Ere fancy you consult, consult your purse

Benjamin Franklin

Mountains are the beginning and the end of all natural scenery.

John Ruskin

The human mind has first to construct forms, independently, before we can find them in things.

Albert Einstein

Unless our conception of patriotism is progressive, it cannot hope to embody the real affection and the real interest of the nation.

Jane Addams

The science of today is the technology of tomorrow.

Edward Teller

If you don't give up, you still have a chance. And when you are small, you have to be very focused and rely on your brain, not your strength.

Jack Ma
