We're all working together; that's the secret.

Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire.

William Butler Yeats

Strength is the sign of vigor, the sign of life, the sign of hope, the sign of health, and the sign of everything that is good. As long as the body lives, there must be strength in the body, strength in the mind, strength in the hand.

Swami Vivekananda

We wonder if we will be the first generation in American history to leave our children with fewer opportunities and a less prosperous nation than the one we inherited.

Paul Ryan

Being naked approaches being revolutionary; going barefoot is mere populism.

John Updike, In Hugging the Shor

The universe is made of stories, not of atoms.

Muriel Rukeyser

Those bitter sorrows of childhood!-- when sorrow is all new and strange, when hope has not yet got wings to fly beyond the days and weeks, and the space from summer to summer seems measureless.

George Eliot

...but I still think that to the unprejudiced, the fossil record of plants is in favor of special creation.

E.J.H. Corner

Publicity in women is detestable. Anonymity runs in their blood. The desire to be veiled still possesses them. They are not even now as concerned about the health of their fame as men are, and, speaking generally, will pass a tombstone or a signpost without feeling an irresistible desire to cut their names on it.

Virginia Woolf

We worked with the engineers in the design and construction and testing phases in those various areas, then we would get back together at the end of the week and brief each other as to what had gone on.

Alan Shepard

Old folks love to seem wise- and if you are silly enough to correspond with grey hairs, take the consequence.

Ignatius Sancho

Nothing can be beautiful which is not true.

John Ruskin

As selfishness and complaint pervert the mind, so love with its joy clears and sharpens the vision.

Helen Keller
