The system of revealed truth which this Book contains is like that of the universe, concealed from common observation yet...the centuries have established its Divine origin.

The flattery of posterity is not worth much more than contemporary flattery, which is worth nothing.

Jorge Luis Borges

Genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration.

Thomas Alva Edison

I love going over to Europe.

David Boreanaz

Business, labor and civil society organizations have skills and resources that are vital in helping to build a more robust global community.

Kofi Annan

The continuous invention of new ways of observing is man's special secret of living.

J. Z. Young

You may all go to Hell, and I will go to Texas.

Davy Crockett

There is no such thing as a nonpolitical speech by a politician.

Richard Milhous Nixon

Scepticism, as I said, is not intellectual only; it is moral also; a chronic atrophy and disease of the whole soul. A man lives by believing something; not by debating and arguing about many things. A sad case for him when all that he can manage to believe is something he can button in his pocket, and with one or the other organ eat and digest! Lower than that he will not get.

Thomas Carlyle

As with real reading, the ability to comprehend subtlety and complexity comes only with time and a lot of experience. If you don't adequately acquire those skills, moving out into the real world of real people can actually become quite scary.

Jeffrey Kluger

I don't pretend to understand the Universe - it's a great deal bigger than I am.

Thomas Carlyle

As long as there are guns, the individual that wants a gun for a crime is going to have one and going to get it. The only person who's going to be penalized and have difficulty is the law-abiding citizen, who then cannot have it if he wants protection-the protection of a weapon in his home, for home protection.

Ronald Reagan

I am not the least afraid to die.

Charles Darwin
