We're special because dreams that are impossible anywhere else, come true here. That's not just my story. That's your story. That's our story.

The greatest Glory of a free-born People, Is to transmit that Freedom to their Children.

The value of a principle is the number of things it will explain.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Take care in your minutes, and the hours will take care of themselves.

Lord Chesterfield

The true greatness of a nation is not measured by the vastness of its territory, or by the multitude of its people, or by the profusion of its exports and imports; but by the extent to which it has contributed to the life and thought and progress of the world. A man's greatness is not estimated by the size of his body or of his purse; not by his family connections or social position, however high these may be. He may bulk large in public estimation today, but tomorrow he will be forgotten like a dream, and his very servants may secure a higher position and a name lasting possibly a little longer.A man's greatness is estimated by his influence, not over the votes and empty cheers of a changing and passing crowd, but by his abiding, inspiring influence in their bidden thoughts, upon their ways of thinking, and consequently of acting. That is why the Wycliffes, Shakespeares, Miltons, Newtons, Wesleys, and Gladstones of English history live, and will live, in everlasting memory, while lesser men are remembered only through them, and the crowd of demagogues, pretenders, and self-seekers are named, if ever named, only to point a moral, or adorn a tale.So with nations. A great nation is not one which, like Russia, has an enormous territory ; or, like China, has an enormous population. It is the nation which gives mankind new modes of thought, new ideals of life, new hopes, new aspirations; which lifts the world out of the rut, and sets it going on a cleaner and brighter road.

My own life has in some ways been a decades-long tour of the sibling experience. I have full sibs, I have half-sibs, and for a time I had step-sibs.

Jeffrey Kluger

The Dharma is the truth that all natures are pure.

Bodhidharma

On this tenth day of June, 1940, the hand that held the dagger has struck it into the back of its neighbor.

There is a heroism in crime as well as in virtue. Vice and infamy have their altars and their religion.

There was never a good war, or a bad peace.

Benjamin Franklin
