Let those who would be happy be firm. Jane Austen
Do you think everybody misses somebody? Like I miss my mama?” “Mmmm-hmmm,” said Gloria. She closed her eyes. “I believe, sometimes, that the whole world has an aching heart. Kate DiCamillo
Liberation, I guess, is everybody getting what they think they want, without knowing the whole truth. Or in other words, liberation finally amounts to being free from things we don't like in order to be enslaved by things we approve of. Here's to the eternal tandem. Robert Fulghum
How many victims must that be? Slaughtered in vain across the land, And how many strugles must that be?
