"Over the years, we have come to identify quality in a college not by whom it serves but by how many students it excludes. Let us not be a sacred priesthood protecting the temple, but rather the fulfillers of dreams." Robert J. Kibbee 5.0000 average rating Rate this Quote
"Discrimination is a hellhound that gnaws at Negroes in every waking moment of their lives to remind them that the lie of their inferiority is accepted as truth in the society dominating them." Martin Luther King, Jr. 4.4444 average rating Rate this Quote

"Nixon had three goals: to win by the biggest electoral landslide in history; to be remembered as a peacemaker; and to be accepted by the 'Establishment' as an equal. He achieved all these objectives at the end of 1972 and the beginning of 1973. And he lost them all two months later-partly because he turned a dream into an obsession." Henry Alfred Kissinger 4.0000 average rating Rate this Quote

T. E. Lawrence 4.8966 average rating Rate this Quote

If a dream affords the dreamer some light on himself, it is not the person with closed eyes who makes the discovery but the person with open eyes lucid enough to fit thoughts together. Dream- a scintillating mirage surrounded by shadows- is essentially poetry." Michel Leiris 4.0000 average rating Rate this Quote

Clive Staples Lewis 4.6250 average rating Rate this Quote

Clive Staples Lewis 4.7500 average rating Rate this Quote
