The search for truth is not a trade by which a man can support himself; for a priest it is a supreme peril

Alfred Loisy

But only art and music have the power to bring peace.

Yoko Ono

Kids are meant to believe that their stepping stone to massive money is 'The X Factor.' Luck is great, but most of life is hard work. We do not celebrate people who have made success out of serious hard work.

Iain Duncan Smith

Sin brought death, and death will disappear with the disappearance of sin.

Mary Baker Eddy

There is one kind of robber whom the law does not strike at, and who steals what is most precious to men: time.

Napoleon Bonaparte

Really, I have to laugh because there was a whole set of stories that made me sound like the Dragon Lady, you know, 'tough this and tough that.' Then there is this business about 'gooey.' The bottom line is I am a pragmatic idealist.

Madeleine Albright

Joseph Jackson

Charles H. Parkhurst

In God's body shop, each of us was customized. But science came along to substitute statistical inference for free will. We are now a tribe of likelihoods.

Oscar Wilde

Music is my religion.

Jimi Hendrix
