When I want to understand what is happening today or try to decide what will happen tomorrow, I look back.

Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.

For too long in this society, we have celebrated unrestrained individualism over common community.

Joe Biden

One of the various theories proposed to explain the negative result of the famous Michelson-Morley experiment with light waves (conceived to measure the absolute space), was based on the ballistic hypothesis, i.e. on postulating that the speed of light predicted by Maxwell's equations was not given as relative to the medium but as relative to the transmitter (firearm). Had that been the case, the experiment negative results would have not caused such perplexity and frustration (as we shall see in forthcoming sections).

Felix Alba-Juez

Repentance won't cure mischief.

Scottish Proverb

There are two good rules which ought to be written on every heart - never to believe anything bad about anybody unless you positively know it to be true never to tell even that unless you feel that it is absolutely necessary, and that God is listening.

Henry Van Dyke

The most affectionate creature in the world is a wet dog

Ambrose Bierce

The sea, the great unifier, is man's only hope. Now, as never before, the old phrase has a literal meaning: we are all in the same boat.

Jacques Yves Cousteau

Hermann Hesse

To perceive means to immobilize... we seize, in the act of perception, something which outruns perception itself.

Henri Bergson

I married him for a green card. We had a really great, caring relationship it just obviously wasn't right for me.

Portia de Rossi

The best-laid schemes o' mice an 'menGang aft agley.

Robert Burns, "To A Mouse"

The fundamental defect of fathers, in our competitive society, is that they want their children to be a credit to them.

Bertrand Russell
