Being rich is a good thing. Not just in the obvious sense of benefitting you and your family, but in the broader sense. Profits are not a zero sum game. The more you make, the more of a financial impact you can have.

Of all the cankers of human happiness none corrodes with so silent, yet so baneful an influence, as indolence

For me, Barack Obama's election was a milestone of the most extraordinary kind. On the day he was elected I felt such hope in my heart. I thought we were seeing the beginning of a new era of equal opportunity across race and gender such as America had never known before.

If God exists and we are made in his image we can have real meaning, and we can have real knowledge through what he has communicated to us.

Francis Schaeffer

Thou mak'st me merry: I am full of pleasure; let us be jocund

William Shakespeare

And heaven had wanted one immortal song. But wild Ambition loves to slide, not stand, And Fortune's ice prefers to Virtue's land.

In everyone there sleeps. A sense of life lived according to love. To some it means the difference they could make. By loving others, but across most it sweeps. As all they might have done had they been loved. That nothing cures.

Philip Larkin

I want no epitaphs of profound history and all that type of thing. I contributed. I would hope they would say that, and I would hope somebody liked me.

Brian Clough

Even the rich are hungry for love, for being cared for, for being wanted, for having someone to call their own.

Mother Theresa

It's only when you're flying above it that you realize how incredible the Earth really is.

Philippe Perrin

The most heroic word in all languages is revolution.

Eugene Debs

It's always sad if anybody you know has a personal problem.

Lee Child
