| Quote:Everybody can be great... because anybody can serve. You don't have to have a college degree to serve. You don't have to make your subject and verb agree to serve. You only need a heart full of grace. A soul generated by love.[Martin Luther King Jr.] Quote:Knowledge is of two kinds. We know a subject ourselves, or we know where we can find information upon it.[Samuel Johnson] Quote:Don't use words too big for the subject. Don't say 'infinitely' when you mean 'very'; otherwise you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite.[C.S. Lewis] Quote:The very idea of freedom presupposes some objective moral law which overarches rulers and ruled alike. Subjectivism about values is eternally incompatible with democracy. We and our rulers are of one kind only so long as we are subject to one law. But if there is no Law of Nature, the ethos of any society is the creation of its rulers, educators and conditioners; and every creator stands above and outside his own creation.[C.S. Lewis] Quote:For having lived long, I have experienced many instances of being obliged, by better information or fuller consideration, to change opinions, even on important subjects, which I once thought right but found to be otherwise.[Benjamin Franklin] Quote:Individual rights are not subject to a public vote; a majority has no right to vote away the rights of a minority; the political function of rights is precisely to protect minorities from oppression by majorities (and the smallest minority on earth is the individual).[Ayn Rand] Quote:Humor is the only test of gravity, and gravity of humor; for a subject which will not bear raillery is suspicious, and a jest which will not bear serious examination is false wit.[Aristotle] Quote:The poets have been mysteriously silent on the subject of cheese.[GK Chesterton] Quote:Saturate yourself with your subject and the camera will all but take you by the hand.[Margaret Bourke-White] Quote:Educate your children to self-control, to the habit of holding passion and prejudice and evil tendencies subject to an upright and reasoning will, and you have done much to abolish misery from their future and crimes from society.[Benjamin Franklin] Quote:The constitution vests the power of declaring war in Congress; therefore no offensive expedition of importance can be undertaken until after they shall have deliberated upon the subject and authorized such a measure.[George Washington] Quote:Government consists in nothing else but so controlling subjects that they shall neither be able to, nor have cause to do it harm.[Nicolo Machiavelli] Quote:Liberty has never come from the government. Liberty has always come from the subjects of it. The history of liberty is a history of resistance.[Woodrow Wilson] Quote:A subject for a great poet would be God's boredom after the seventh day of creation.[Friedrich Nietzsche] Quote:Grasp the subject, the words will follow. [Cato the Elder] Quote:The ideals which have lighted my way, and time after time have given me new courage to face life cheerfully, have been Kindness, Beauty, and Truth. The trite subjects of human efforts, possessions, outward success, luxury have always seemed to me contemptible. [Albert Einstein] Quote:Humor is the only test of gravity, and gravity of humor; for a subject which will not bear raillery is suspicious, and a jest which will not bear serious examination is false wit. [Aristotle] Quote:Poets have been mysteriously silent on the subject of cheese. [G. K. Chesterton] Quote:The best way to become acquainted with a subject is to write a book about it.
