I have said it on several occasions, several times from this podium, that providing a quality education for our children is high on my priority list. I will not stop now.

Should we find a second form of life right here on our doorstep, we could be confident that life is a truly cosmic phenomenon. If so, there may well be sentient beings somewhere in the galaxy wondering, as do we, if they are not alone in the universe.

Paul Davies

He who believes in freedom of the will has never loved and never hated.

Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach

If people bring so much courage to this world the world has to kill them to break them, so of course it kills them. The world breaks every one and afterward many are strong at the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good, and the very gentle, and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure it will kill you too, but there will be no special hurry.

Ernest Hemingway

We should reject big government and look inside ourselves for all the things that built this country into what it was.

Glenn Beck

It is rather for us here dedicated to the great task remaining before us, that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion.

Abraham Lincoln

I always carry lip balm and lipstick. Lipstick is a very important beauty product because I find that lips are the most beautiful feature of anyone's face.

Fan Binbing

I'm famous by default. I came out of the womb, and people wanted to know who I was because of my parents.

Frances Bean Cobain

I never was good at learning things. I did just enough work to pass. In my opinion it would have been wrong to do more than was just sufficient, so I worked as little as possible.

Manfred von Richthofen

What is not started today is never finished tomorrow.

Johann von Goethe

I have to remind my dad, 'Journalists - no matter how many cigars they smoke with you - are not your friends, so don't talk to them.'

Cameron Diaz

Duty is the most sublime word in our language. Do your duty in all things. You cannot do more. You should never wish to do less.

General Robert E. Lee

When people talk, listen completely. Most people never listen.

Ernest Hemingway
