In religion and politics, people's beliefs and convictions are in almost every case gotten at second hand, and without examination.

Robots have a rich and storied history in movies.

John Podhoretz

These can never be true friends: Hope, dice, a prostitute, a robber, a cheat, a goldsmith, a monkey, a doctor, a distiller.

Proverb

Man cannot do without beauty, and this is what our era pretends to want to disregard.

Albert Camus

We do not deny any nation's legitimate interest in security. But protecting the security of one nation by robbing another of its national independence and national traditions is not legitimate. In the long run, it is not even secure.

Ronald Reagan

After a fellow gets famous it does not take long for someone to bob up that used to sit next to him in school.

Kin Hubbard

Revolution! The people howls and cries, Freedom, that's what we're needing! We've needed it for centuries, our arteries are bleeding. The stage is shaking, the audience rock. The whole thing is over by nine o'clock.

Kurt Tucholsky

Without doubt God is the universal moving force, but each being is moved according to the nature that God has given it. He directs angels, man, animals, brute matter, in sum all created things, but each according to its nature, and man having been created free, he is freely led. This rule is truly the eternal law and in it we must believe.

Joseph De Maistre

His hands may have been the one to heal you, but it will be mine that awaken you.

Charlotte Featherstone

Democrats are going to proudly run on the fact that we turned the economy around. It was our policies under President Obama's leadership through the Recovery Act, through investing in the automobile industry.

Debbie Wasserman Schultz

Winning a competition in architecture is a ticket to oblivion. It's just an idea. Ninety-nine per cent never get built.

Daniel Libeskind

Friendship is the marriage of the soul, and this marriage is liable to divorce.

Voltaire

Convicções profundas só as têm as criaturas superficiais. Os que não reparam para as coisas quase que as veem apenas para não esbarrar com elas, esses são sempre da mesma opinião, são os íntegros e os coerentes. A política e a religião gastam dessa lenha, e é por isso que ardem tão mal entre a Verdade e a Vida.

Fernando Pessoa
