Teach me to do the best I can To help and cheer my fellowman; Teach me to lose my selfish need, And glory in the larger deed, Which smothers the road and lights the day, For all who chance to come my way.

That happens every time I get behind a guitar, regardless of what I'm saying, 'cause music is freedom and being free is the closest I've ever felt to being spiritual.

Ben Harper

The strongest man in the world is he who stands alone.

Henrik Ibsen

A blush is no language; only a dubious flag - signal which may mean either of two contradictories

George Eliot

Go fish and hunt far and wide day by day - farther and wider - and rest thee by many brooks and hearth-sides without misgiving. Remember thy Creator in the days of thy youth. Rise free from care before the dawn, and seek adventures. Let the noon find thee by other lakes, and the night overtake thee everywhere at home. There are no larger fields than these, no worthier games than may here be played.

Henry David Thoreau, Walden, ch.

Gravitation is not responsible for people falling in love.

Albert Einstein

Knowledge is the most democratic source of power.

Alvin Toffler

I have made this letter longer than usual, only because I have not had the time to make it shorter.

Blaise Pascal

In our instinctive rebellion against pain, we are children again, and demand an active will to wreak our vengeance on.

George Eliot

The Britons are quite separated from all the world.

Virgil

Barack Obama is the worst president in history. In my generation, we'll inherit a weakened country, drug cartels in Mexico, tax cartels in D.C. What's happened to America? I love Arizona. I was raised right. Somebody has to go to Washington and knock the hell out of the place.

Ben Quayle

The power to tax is the power to destroy.

John Marshall

Everything is clearer when you're in love.

John Lennon
