All of us in society are supposed to believe that cruelty to animals is wrong and that it is a good thing to prevent needless suffering.

Observe your enemies, for they first find out your faults.

Antisthenes

I am a part of everything that I have read.

John Kieran

You know well I couldn't bear to live with a low common man after you two; and it's wicked and cruel of you to insult me by pretending I could.

George Bernard Shaw

It is better that a man should tyrannize over his bank balance than over his fellow-citizens and whilst the former is sometimes denounced as being but a means to the latter, sometimes at least it is an alternative.

John Maynard Keynes

There are moments when very little truth would be enough to shape opinion. One might be hated at extremely low cost.

Jean Rostand

An expert is a person who avoids the small errors while sweeping on to the grand fallacy.

Steven Weinberg

One of the great things personally coming to Hawai'i is my friendship of Jim Nicholson.

Dan Fouts

In a broken nest there are few whole eggs.

Chinese Proverb

I feel that my relationship with Kasparov now is much the same as it had been before the match - good. As for his reaction, well it can't be nice to lose your title after so long, but he was very generous.

Vladimir Kramnik

One of the juiciest pleasures of life is to be able to salute and embrace, as elected leaders and honored representatives, people whom you first met when they were on the run or in exile or (like Adam) in and out of jail. I was to have this experience again, and I hope to have it many more times in the future: it sometimes allows me to feel that life is full of point.

Christopher Hitchens

Once you begin to take yourself seriously as a leader or as a follower, as a modern or as a conservative, then you become a self-conscious, biting, and scratching little animal whose work is not of the slightest value or importance to anybody.

Virginia Woolf

There are events which are so great that if a writer has participated in them his obligation is to write truly rather than assume the presumption of altering them with invention.

Ernest Hemingway
