Kevin J. Anderson quote: "There will come a time of fire and night, when enemies rise..."
There will come a time of fire and night, when enemies rise and empires fall, when the stars themselves begin to die. Kevin J. Anderson
The idea of equality is a by-product of the sentiment of envy. Since it must always prove beyond human ower to raise the inferior mass to a superior stratum, apostles of equality must ever be inferiors seeking to reduce their betters to their level. It follows that a nation that once admits this doctrine of equality will be dragged by it to the level, moral, intelletual and political, of its most worthless class. Rafael Sabatini
Knowledge is not wisdom: cleverness is not, not without awareness of our death, not without recalling just how brief our flare is. He who overreaches will, in his overreaching, lose what he possesses, betray what he has now. That which is beyond us, which is greater than the human, the unattainably great, is for the mad, or for those who listen to the mad, and then believe them. Euripides
Crime is naught but misdirected energy. So long as every institution of today, economic, political, social, and moral, conspires to misdirect human energy into wrong channels; so long as most people are out of place doing the things they hate to do, living a life they loathe to live, crime will be inevitable, and all the laws on the statutes can only increase, but never do away with, crime. Emma Goldman
Life passes by now like the scenery outside a car window. I breathe and eat and sleep as I always did, but there seems to be no great purpose in my life that requires active participation on my part...I do not know where I am going or when I will get there. Nicholas Sparks
Barbara Kingsolver quote: "No reporter worth his buttons will let the facts intrude on a..."
No reporter worth his buttons will let the facts intrude on a good story. Barbara Kingsolver
As long as it is admitted that the law may be diverted from its true purpose--that it may violate property instead of protecting it--then everyone will want to participate in making the law, either to protect himself against plunder or to use it for plunder. Frederic Bastiat
Jerry Garcia quote: "If the thunder don't get ya then the lightning will."
If the thunder don't get ya then the lightning will. Jerry Garcia
Alfred Hitchcock quote: "If I won't be myself, who will?"
If I won't be myself, who will? Alfred Hitchcock
Because everyone is guilty for everyone else. For all the 'wee ones,' because there are little children and big children. All people are 'wee ones.' And I'll go for all of them, because there must be someone who will go for all of them. Fyodor Dostoevsky
Any concentration of the will displaces life and gives it bias in motion. Reality, he believed, was always trying to copy the imagination of man, from which it derived. Lawrence Durrell
Julius Caesar quote: "The greatest enemy will hide in the last place you would ever..."
The greatest enemy will hide in the last place you would ever look. Julius Caesar
Say what you will, there is something fine about our old aristocracy. I'll bet Trotsky couldn't hit a moving secretary with an egg on a dark night. P. G. Wodehouse
The Lost Tribe. How long, how long must I regret? I never found my people yet; I go about, but cannot find The blood-relations of the mind. Through my little sphere I range, And though I wither do not change; Must not change a jot, lest they Should not know me on my way. Sometimes I think when I am dead They will come about my bed, For my people well do know When to come and when to go. I know not why I am alone, Nor where my wandering tribe is gone, But be they few, or be they far, Would I... Ruth Pitter
Neil Gaiman quote: "Here, far from our homes, we will be forgotten by our gods."
Here, far from our homes, we will be forgotten by our gods. Neil Gaiman
