"My grandkids say, 'Reality Bites.' O.K., but it also challenges and rewards...I believe our best days are yet to come."	George Herbert Walker Bush
"The academic mind can eat away the very basis of its own assurance ... produce contortions when it tries to bend over backward ... allow itself to be dismayed by the picture it has created of relentless historical process."	Herbert Butterfield
"The first step toward success is taken when you refuse to be a captive of the environment in which you first find yourself."	Mark Caine
"Real generosity toward the future consists in giving all to what is present."	Albert Camus
"What then is capital punishment but the most premeditated of murders, to which no criminal's deed, however calculated it may be, can be compared? For there to be an equivalence, the death penalty would have to punish a criminal, who had warned his victim of the date at which he would inflict a horrible death on him, and who from that moment onward had confined him at his mercy for months. Such a monster is not encountered in private life."	Albert Camus
"People love to admit they have bad handwriting or that they can't do math. And they will readily admit to being awkward: 'I'm such a klutz!' But they will never admit to having a poor sense of humor or being a bad driver."	George
"People love to admit they have bad handwriting or that they can't do math. And they will readily admit to being awkward: I'm such a klutz! But they will never admit to having a poor sense of humor or being a bad driver."	George
"Wouldn't it be weird if the only way people could die was that their heads suddenly exploded without warning? If there was simply no other cause of death? One day you'd be sitting there having a hot chocolate, and suddenly your head would explode. "	George
"A man with a half volition goes backwards and forwards, and makes no way on the smoothest road; a man with a whole volition advances on the roughest, and will reach his purpose, if there be even a little worthiness in it. The man without a purpose is like a ship without a rudder - a waif, a nothing, a no man. Have a purpose in life and having it, throw such strength of mind and muscle into your work as God has given you."	Thomas Carlyle
"Dear brightest star o'er Bethlehem, O let your precious light shine in with hope and peace toward men in every home tonight."	Swedish Carol
"One of the most basic principles for making and keeping peace within and between nations. . . is that in political, military, moral, and spiritual confrontations, there should be an honest attempt at the reconciliation of differences before resorting to combat."	James Earl "Jimmy" Carter, Jr.
"The basic difference between an ordinary person and a warrior is that a warrior takes everything as a challenge while an ordinary person takes everything as a blessing or a curse."	Carlos Castaneda
"Love and war are the same thing, and stratagems and policy are as allowable in the one as in the others"	Miguel Cerbantes
"Let me leap out of the frying-pan into the fire; or, out of God's blessing into the warm sun."	Miguel de Cervantes
"Thou art a cat, and a rat, and a coward."	Miguel de Cervantes
"We should seek by all means in our power to avoid war, by analysing possible causes, by trying to remove them, by discussion in a spirit of collaboration and good will. I cannot believe that such a programme would be rejected by the people of this country, even if it does mean the establishment of personal contact with the dictators."	Neville Chamberlain
"If you cry 'Forward!' you must without fail make plain in what direction to go. Don't you see that if, without doing so, you call out the word to both a monk and a revolutionary, they will go in directions precisely opposite?"	Anton Pavlovich Chekhov
"Those that set in motion the forces of evil cannot always control them afterwards."	Charles W. Chesnutt
"Marriage is an adventure, like going to war."	Gilbert Keith Chesterton
"Personally, I'm in favor of democracy, which means that the central institutions of society have to be under popular control. Now, under capitalism, we can't have democracy by definition. Capitalism is a system in which the central institutions of society are in principle under autocratic control. Thus, a corporation or an industry is, if we were to think of it in political terms, fascist; that is, it has tight control at the top and strict obedience has to be establishedat every level--there's little bargaining, a little give and take,but the line of authority is perfectly straightforward. Just as I'm opposed to political fascism, I'm opposed to economic fascism. I think that until the major institutions of society are under the popular control of participants and communities, it's pointless to talk about democracy."	Noam Chomsky
