Sex is the last refuge of the miserable.

A theory of the middle class: that it is not to be determined by its financial situation but rather by its relation to government. That is, one could shade down from an actual ruling or governing class to a class hopelessly out of relation to government, thinking of government as beyond its control, of itself as wholly controlled by government. Somewhere in between and In gradations is the group that has the sense that gov't exists for it, and shapes its consciousness accordingly.

Lionel Trilling

As surely as I am the living God, everyone will kneel before me, and everyone will confess that I am God.

Jesus Christ

My money is yours give you a lil more 'cause I love ya, love ya. With me girl is where you belong...-Love Me

Justin Bieber

This is Democratic bedrock: we don't let people lie in the ditch and drive past and pretend not to see them dying. Here on the frozen tundra of Minnesota, if your neighbor's car won't start, you put on your parka and get the jumper cables out and deliver the Sacred Spark that starts their car. Everybody knows this. The logical extension of this spirit is social welfare and the myriad government programs with long dry names all very uninteresting to you until you suddenly need one...

Garrison Keillor, Homegrown Demo

It's easy to look back and see it, and it's easy to give the advice. But the sad fact is, most people don't look beneath the surface until it's too late.

Wendelin Van Draanen

So the question becomes, If you are ever faced with this choice are you willing to die for what you believe in? For that is the only way you will deny him. [...] It's a difficult question and not one you can answer until you're faced with it. Keep in mind that many people have died for their beliefs; it's actually quite common. The real courage is in living and suffering for what you believe.

Christopher Paolini

Belief is a moral act for which the believer is to be held responsible.

H. A. Hodges

We can't form our children on our own concepts we must take them and love them as God gives them to us.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

The most common lie is that which one lies to himself; lying to others is relatively an exception.

Friedrich Nietzsche

Honor isn't about making the right choices. It's about dealing with the consequences.

Midori Koto

Opportunities to find deeper powers within ourselves come when life seems most challenging.

Joseph Campbell

In long experience I find that a man who trusts nobody is apt to be the kind of man nobody trusts.

Harold MacMillan
