Fyodor Dostoevsky

Oscar Wilde

"The crew of the space shuttle Challenger honored us by the manner in which they lived their lives. We will never forget them, nor the last time we saw them, this morning, as they prepared for their journey and waved goodbye and 'slipped the surly bonds of earth' to 'touch the face of God.'"
Ronald Reagan
"I have sworn upon the altar of God, eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man."
Thomas Jefferson
"Our memory is like a shop in the window of which is exposed now one, now another photograph of the same person. And as a rule the most recent exhibit remains for some time the only one to be seen."
Marcel Proust
"Forgiveness is not an occasional act: it is a permanent attitude."
Martin Luther King Jr.
"There is no man, however wise, who has not at some period of his youth said things, or lived in a way the consciousness of which is so unpleasant to him in later life that he would gladly, if he could, expunge it from his memory."
Marcel Proust
"It is seldom indeed that one parts on good terms, because if one were on good terms, one would not part."
Marcel Proust
