John Irving
There is no nation on earth powerful enough to accomplish our overthrow. Our destruction, should it come at all, will be from another quarter. From the inattention of the people to the concerns of their government, from their carelessness and negligence. I must confess that I do apprehend some danger. I fear that they may place too implicit a confidence in their public servants, and fail properly to scrutinize their conduct; that in this way they may be made the dupes of designing men, and... Daniel Webster
What we need most right now, at this moment, is a kind of patriotic grace - a grace that takes the long view, apprehends the moment we're in, comes up with ways of dealing with it, and eschews the politically cheap and manipulative. That admits affection and respect. That encourages them.

Peggy Noonan
Soren Kierkegaard quote: "It is very important in life to know when your cue comes."
It is very important in life to know when your cue comes. Soren Kierkegaard
Please, don't torture me with cliches. If you're going to try to intimidate me, have the courtesy to go away for a while, acquire a better education, improve your vocabulary, and come back with some fresh metaphors. Dean Koontz
John Steinbeck quote: "You stay out here a little while, an' if you smell any roses,..."
You stay out here a little while, an' if you smell any roses, you come let me smell, too. John Steinbeck
What do you do there, moon, in the sky? Tell me what you do, silent moon. When evening comes you rise and go contemplating wastelands; then you set. Giacomo Leopardi
We reap a reward merely in the act of helping others. We never know how, or if, that reward will come back to us. Helping is the reward; none other is needed nor better. Terry Goodkind
Yogi Berra quote: "If the fans don’t wanna come out to the ballpark, no one can..."
If the fans don’t wanna come out to the ballpark, no one can stop ‘em. Yogi Berra
Alvin Toffler quote: "The future always comes too fast and in the wrong order."
The future always comes too fast and in the wrong order. Alvin Toffler
It seemed to him that nothing would ever be explained, and that all of a sudden each day was slipping away, that time was flying by and they were getting old and nothing would ever come clear. Kim Stanley Robinson
Herschel Walker quote: "SUCCESS is being able to come home, lay your head on the..."
SUCCESS is being able to come home, lay your head on the pillow and SLEEP in PEACE. Herschel Walker
And we will be ready, at the end of every day will be ready, will not say no to anything, will try to stay awake while everyone is sleeping, will not sleep, will make the shoes with the elves, will breathe deeply all the time, breathe in all the air full of glass and nails and blood, will breathe it and drink it, so rich, so when it comes we will not be angry, will be content, tired enough to go, gratefully, will shake hands with everyone, bye, bye, and then pack a bag, some snacks, and go to... Dave Eggers

It's a patent absurdity on the face of it to hate people because they live round the corner and speak a different vernacular, so to speak. James Joyce
