| Quote:I think that a young state, like a young virgin, should modestly stay at home, and wait the application of suitors for an alliance with her; and not run about offering her amity to all the world; and hazarding their refusal. Our virgin is a jolly one; and tho at present not very rich, will in time be a great fortune, and where she has a favorable predisposition, it seems to me well worth cultivating.[Ambrose Bierce] Quote:An election is coming. Universal peace is declared and the foxes have a sincere interest in prolonging the lives of the poultry.[T.S. Eliot] Quote:The Psalmists in telling everyone to praise God are doing what all men do when they speak of what they care about.[C.S. Lewis] Quote:Talent is cheaper than table salt. What separates the talented individual from the successful one is a lot of hard work.[Stephen King] Quote:The whole religious complexion of the modern world is due to the absence from Jerusalem of a lunatic asylum.[Thomas Paine] Quote:If eighty percent of your sales come from twenty percent of all of your items, just carry those twenty percent.[Henry Kissinger] Quote:Both tears and sweat are salty, but they render a different result. Tears will get you sympathy; sweat will get you change.[Jesse Jackson] Quote:Speaking the Truth in times of universal deceit is a revolutionary act.[George Orwell] Quote:Nonviolence is the greatest force at the disposal of mankind. It is mightier than the mightiest weapon of destruction devised by the ingenuity of man.[Mahatma Gandhi] Quote:If, as I can't help suspecting, the dead also feel the pains of separation (and this may be one of their purgatorial sufferings), then for both lovers, and for all pairs of lovers without exception, bereavement is a universal and integral part of our experience of love.[C.S. Lewis] Quote:The salvation of a single soul is more important than the production or preservation of all the epics and tragedies in the world.[C.S. Lewis] Quote:An idea is salvation by imagination. [Frank Lloyd Wright] Quote:The quality of mercy is not strain'd, <br>It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven <br>Upon the place beneath. It is twice blest: <br>It blesseth him that gives and him that takes. <br>'T is mightiest in the mightiest: it becomes <br>The throned monarch better than his crown; <br>His sceptre shows the force of temporal power, <br>The attribute to awe and majesty, <br>Wherein doth sit the dread and fear of kings; <br>But mercy is above this sceptred sway, <br>It is enthroned in the hearts of kings, <br>It is an attribute to God himself; <br>And earthly power doth then show likest God's, <br>When mercy seasons justice. Therefore, Jew, <br>Though justice be thy plea, consider this, <br>That in the course of justice none of us <br>Should see salvation: we do pray for mercy; <br>And that same prayer doth teach us all to render <br>The deeds of mercy. [William Shakespeare] Quote:Death is more universal than life; everyone dies but not everyone lives. [Aeschylus] Quote:The universal brotherhood of man is our most precious possession.

For if, by ill luck, people understood each other, they would never agree. [Charles Baudelaire] Quote:Being plied with fine food always puts me in mind of the slammer, cause the food was jumpin' in there too--high in fat but nice and salty. You know what the worst deprivation in there was? My music. Radio belonged to my cell mate, the Blonde Hammer. He was into that jazz-fusion thing at the time. I tell you what, enough Spyro Gyra and you're hoping you'll get killed in a knife fight. [Barbara Hall] Quote:All progress is based upon a universal innate desire on the part of every organism to live beyond its income. [Samuel Butler] Quote:In the modern world of business, it is useless to be a creative original thinker unless you can also sell what you create. Management cannot be expected to recognize a good idea unless it is presented to them by a good salesman.
