War is to man what maternity is to a woman. From a philosophical and doctrinal viewpoint, I do not believe in perpetual peace.

Many women, particularly young women, have claimed the right to use the most explicit sex terms, including extremely vulgar ones, in public as well as private. But it is men, far more than women, who have been liberated by this change. For now that women use these terms, men no longer need to watch their own language in the presence of women. But is this a gain for women?

Margaret Mead

To reason about love is to lose reason.

Boufflers

If a man has good manners and is not afraid of other people he will get by, even if he is stupid.

David Eccles

Love cannot endure indifference. It needs to be wanted. Like a lamp, it needs to be fed out of the oil of another's heart, or its flame burns low.

Henry Ward Beecher

Once the last trace of emotion has been eradicated, nothing remains of thought but absolute tautology.

Theodor Wiesengrund Adorno

All your Western theologies, the whole mythology of them, are based on the concept of God as a senile delinquent.

Tennessee (Thomas Lanier) Willia

It seems that this situation is not restricted to science but is more generally human.

Felix Bloch

The miracle on earth are the laws of heaven.

Jean Paul Richter

If capitalism is to remain a healthy, vibrant economic system, corporations must participate in taking care of the society and the environment in which they live.

Simon Mainwaring

From heresy, frenzy and jealousy, good Lord deliver me.

Ludovico Ariosto

Nay, be a Columbus to whole new continents and worlds within you, opening new channels, not of trade, but of thought. Every man is the lord of a realm beside which the earthly empire of the Czar is but a petty state, a hummock left by the ice.

Henry David Thoreau

My goal was not to be famous or rich but to be good at what I did. And that required going to New York and studying and working in the theater.

Shirley Knight
