The weapon of the Republic is terror, and virtue is its strength.

Humanity does not ask us to be happy. It merely asks us to be brilliant on its behalf.

Orson Scott Card, Ender's Game

Be ready for the revelation of the truth.

Elia M. Ramollah

I have a fantasy where Ted Turner is elected President but refuses because he doesn't want to give up power.

Arthur C. Clarke

You must recognize, embrace, and be honest about what is real for you today and allow that understanding to inform the choices you make. Only then will you be able to build the future of your dreams.

Suze Orman

Someone who thinks the world is always cheating him is right. He is missing that wonderful feeling of trust in someone or something.

Andrew V. Madson

There is a price which is too great to pay for peace, and that price can be put in one word. One cannot pay the price of self-respect.

Woodrow Wilson

I don't know if this is the kind of retrospective analysis that people are fond of applying to their work or actions, but it feels like I knew I was going to be famous and I knew that an element of that would be traumatic, so that if I could make myself something big and otherworldly, it would be a kind of defence.

Russell Brand

There is no great discoveries and advances, as long as there is an unhappy child on earth. / Ne možemo govoriti o napretku ?ovje?anstva, dok na svijetu ima nesretne djece.

Albert Einstein

In depression...faith in deliverance, in ultimate restoration, is absent. The pain is unrelenting, and what makes the condition intolerable is the foreknowledge that no rememdy will come, not in a day, an hour, a month, or a minute. It is hopelessness even more than pain that crushes the soul.

William Styron, from 'Darkness V

I am less to you than your ivory Hermes or your silver Faun. You will like them always. How long will you like me? Till I have my first wrinkle, I suppose. I know, now, that when one loses one's good looks, whatever they may be, one loses everything. Your picture has taught me that. Lord Henry Wotton is perfectly right. Youth is the only thing worth having. When I find that I am growing old, I shall kill myself.

Oscar Wilde

Lying is forbidden in Iraq. President Saddam Hussein will tolerate nothing but truthfulness as he is a man of great honour and integrity. Everyone is encouraged to speak freely of the truths evidenced in their eyes and hearts.

Muhammad Saeed al-Sahhaf

Live one day at a time emphasizing ethics rather than rules.

Wayne Dyer
