Tis ten to one this play can never please. All that are here. Some come to take their ease. And sleep an act or two; but those, we fear, W' have frighted with our trumpets. William Shakespeare
I feel the greatest destroyer of peace today is 'Abortion', because it is a war against the child... A direct killing of the innocent child, 'Murder' by the mother herself... And if we can accept that a mother can kill even her own child, how can we tell other people not to kill one another? How do we persuade a woman not to have an abortion? As always, we must persuade her with love... And we remind ourselves that love means to be willing to give until it hurts... Mother Teresa
I saw all races, all colors, blue eyed blonds to black skinned Africans in true brotherhood! In unity! Living as one! Worshiping as one! No segregationists, no liberals; they would not have known how to interpret the meaning of those words Malcolm X
Jane Jacobs quote: "Cities have the capability of providing something for..."
Cities have the capability of providing something for everybody, only because, and only when, they are created by everybody. Jane Jacobs
Ray Stannard Baker quote: "Looking back, I have this to regret, that too often when I..."
Looking back, I have this to regret, that too often when I loved, I did not say so Ray Stannard Baker
Join with those who sing, tell stories, talk pleasure in life, and have joy in their eyes, because joy is contagious, and can prevent others from becoming paralysed by depression, loneliness and difficulties. Paulo Coelho
There have been hermaphrodites around forever, Cal. Forever. Plato said that the original human being was a hermaphrodite. Did you know that? The original person was two halves, one male, one female. Then these got separated. That's why everybody's always searching for their other half. Except for us. We've got both halves already. Jeffrey Eugenides
They went to university because someone, at a time when universities seemed important, said that in order to rise in the world, you had to have a degree. And thus the world was deprived of some excellent gardeners, bakers, antique dealers, sculptors, and writers. Paulo Coelho
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them. With Major Major it had been all three. Even among men lacking all distinction he inevitably stood out as a man lacking more distinction than all the rest, and people who met him were always impressed by how unimpressive he was. Joseph Heller
Empathy is not simply a matter of trying to imagine what others are going through, but having the will to muster enough courage to do something about it. In a way, empathy is predicated upon hope. Cornel West
Chuck Palahniuk quote: "Generations have been working in jobs they hate, just so they..."
Generations have been working in jobs they hate, just so they can buy what they don't really need. Chuck Palahniuk
She regretted having taken his hand, she wanted to get away from there as soon as possible, to hide her shame, never again to see that man who had witnessed all that was most sordid in her, and who nevertheless continued to treat her with such tenderness. But again she remembered Mari's words: She didn't need to explain her life to anyone, not even to the young man standing before her. Paulo Coelho
They were offered the choice between becoming kings or the couriers of kings. The way children would, they all wanted to be couriers. Therefore there are only couriers who hurry about the world, shouting to each other - since there are no kings - messages that have become meaningless. They would like to put an end to this miserable life of theirs but they dare not because of their oaths of service. Franz Kafka
I have spent considerable of my leisure time in this past year in the improvement of my mind but I find that much of it has been spent extremely foolish and that walking in the pasture at dusk with virtuous, amiable and genteel young ladies I experience none but swineish passions. I commenced to read Russell’s Modern Europe sometime last summer. John Cheever
Dorothy L. Sayers quote: "She couldn't have found anything nastier to say if she had..."
She couldn't have found anything nastier to say if she had thought it out with both hands for a fortnight. Dorothy L. Sayers
