"Make sure you never, never argue at night. You just lose a good night's sleep, and you can't settle anything until morning anyway."
Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy
"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
"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.
"I have a dream that my 4 children will one day live in a nation Where they will not be judged by the color of their skin But by the content of their character."
Martin Luther King, Jr.
"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
"One mind awake can awaken another, The second awake can awaken their next door brother. Three awake can awaken the town By turning the whole place upside down. Many awake can make such a fuss That they finally awaken the rest of us."
Helen Kromer
"I will try to follow the advice that a university president once gave a prospective commencement speaker. 'Think of yourself as the body at an Irish wake,' he said. 'They need you in order to have the party, but no one expects you to say very much.'"
Anthony Lake
"All men dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dream with open eyes, to make it possible."
T. E. Lawrence
"It may be that those who do most, dream most."
Stephen Butler Leacock
"Life is something that happens when you can't get to sleep."
Fran Lebowitz
"Not being tense but ready. Not thinking but not dreaming. Not being set but flexible. Liberation from the uneasy sense of confinement. It is being wholly and quietly alive, aware and alert, ready for whatever may come."
Bruce Lee
"When action grows unprofitable, gather information; when information grows unprofitable, sleep."
Ursula K. LeGuin
"Dream is not a revelation. 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
"Where all is but dream, reasoning and arguments are of no use, truth and knowledge nothing."
Michel Leiris
"Of all tyrannies a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."
Clive Staples Lewis
"A man who is eating or lying with his wife or preparing to go to sleep in humility, thankfulness and temperance, is, by Christian standards, in an infinitely higher state than one who is listening to Bach or reading Plato in a state of pride."
Clive Staples Lewis
"Good communication is as stimulating as black coffee, and just as hard to sleep after."
Anne Spencer Morrow Lindbergh
"Thou art gone from my gaze like a beautiful dream, And I seek thee in vain by the meadow and stream."
George Linley
"Where all is but dream, reasoning and arguments are of no use, truth and knowledge nothing."
John Locke
"A dreamer lives forever, And a toiler dies in a day."
John Locke
