"To put the world right in order, we must first put the nation in order; to put the nation in order, we must first put the family in order; to put the family in order, we must first cultivate our personal life; we must first set our hearts right."
Confucius
"To show resentment at a reproach is to acknowledge that one may have deserved it."
Tacitus
"To sin by silence when they should protest makes cowards of men."
Abraham Lincoln
"To waste, to destroy, our natural resources, to skin and exhaust the land instead of using it so as to increase its usefulness, will result in undermining in the days of our children the very prosperity which we ought by right to hand down to them."
Theodore Roosevelt
"Today's students can put dope in their veins or hope in their brains. If they can conceive it and believe it, they can achieve it. They must know it is not their aptitude, but their attitude, that will determine their altitude."
Jesse Jackson
"Too much of a good thing can be wonderful. "
Mae West
"Traditions are group efforts to keep the unexpected from happening."
Barbara Tober
"Traffic is like a bad dog. It isn't important to look both ways when crossing the street. It's more important to not show fear."
P.J. O'Rourke
"Under certain circumstances, profanity provides a relief denied even to prayer."
Mark Twain
"Until you've lost your reputation, you never realize what a burden it was or what freedom really is."
Margaret Mitchell
"Wal-Mart, what's that? Do they, like, make walls there?"
Paris Hilton
"Watch what people are cynical about, and one can often discover what they lack."
George Patton
"Water, taken in moderation, cannot hurt anybody."
Mark Twain
"We all wish to be judged by our peers, by the men 'after our own heart.' Only they really know our mind and only they judge it by standards we fully acknowledge. Theirs is the praise we really covet and the blame we really dread. The little pockets of early Chrstians survived because they cared exclusively for the love of 'the bretheren' and stopped their ears to the opinion of the Pagan society around them. But a circle of criminals, cranks, or perverts survives in just the same way; by becoming deaf to the opinion of the outer world, by discounting it as the chatter of outsiders who 'don't understand,' of the 'conventional,' the 'bourgeois,' the 'Establishment,' of prigs, prudes, and humbugs."
C.S. Lewis
"We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars."
Oscar Wilde
"We are all victims of mythology in one way or another. We are the inheritors, and many times the propogators, of a desire to believe what we want to believe, regardless of whether or not it is true."
J.V. Stewart
"We are all worms, but I do believe I am a glow-worm."
Winston Churchill
"We are discreet sheep; we wait to see how the drove is going, and then go with the drove."
Mark Twain
"We are healed from suffering only by experiencing it to the full."
Marcel Proust
"We are just an advanced breed of monkeys on a minor planet of a very average star. But we can understand the Universe. That makes us something very special."
Stephen Hawking
