He would rather lose his power for doing right, than keep his power by doing wrong. Because he loves his people more than he loves his office.

The weight of the world is love. Under the burden of solitude, under the burden of dissatisfaction.

Allen Ginsberg

You don't need an explanation for everything, Recognize that there are such things as miracles - events for which there are no ready explanations. Later knowledge may explain those events quite easily.

Harry Browne

The press is no substitute for institutions. It is like the beam of a searchlight that moves restlessly about, bringing one episode and then another out of darkness into vision. Men cannot do the work of the world by this light alone. They cannot govern society by episodes, incidents, and eruptions. It is only when they work by a steady light of their own, that the press, when it is turned upon them, reveals a situation intelligible enough for a popular decision.

Walter Lippmann

... nothing in Nature is black or white, few solutions are clean and clear; rather, reality, and especially our models of it, possess shades of gray throughout.

Eric Chaisson

'Chasing Amy' was an amazing role, but then after that, I went and did 'Big Daddy' and you're the girlfriend or you're the best friend. I wasn't getting the Nicole Kidman roles.

Joey Lauren Adams

If the wife sins, the husband is not innocent.

Italian Proverb

If only, I thought, I could talk to Eugene just one more time. This was before I came to understand that you cannot make someone fall in love with you But here's what you can do. By arguing and pleading and screaming and crying and throwing plates and phoning a lot and bringing hot food and sending flowers and buying gifts and doing unsolicited favors and remembering a birthday and being nice and declaring your abiding love and trying hard or sometimes merely by being present, you can make someone who was hitherto lukewarm really detest you.

Patricia Marx

If you want to make good use of your time, you've got to know what's most important and then give it all you've got.

Lee Iacocca

Democracy give every man the right to be his own oppressor.

James Russell Lowell

Wisdom mitigates the risk of being honest.

Toba Beta

We have not passed that subtle line between childhood and adulthood until we move from the passive voice to the active voice - that is, until we have stopped saying It got lost, and say, I lost it.

Sydney J. Harris

The further you progress, the higher the ideal of perfection toward which you strive rises.

Leo Tolstoy
