"My son is 7 years old. I am 54. It has taken me a great many years to reach that age. I am more respected in the community, I am stronger, I am more intelligent and I think I am better than he is. I don't want to be a pal, I want to be a father."
Clifton Paul Fadiman
"Should we feel at times disheartened and discouraged, a confiding thought, a simple movement of heart towards God will renew our powers. Whatever He may demand of us, He will give us at the moment the strength and the courage that we need."
François de Salignac de la Mothe Fenelon
"Patience and time do more than strength or passion."
Jean de La Fontaine

Kahlil Gibran
"The fewer the facts, the stronger the opinion."
Arnold H. Glasgow
"The strongest and most effective [force] in guaranteeing the long-term maintenance of … power is not violence in all the forms deployed by the dominant to control the dominated, but consent in all the forms in which the dominated acquiesce in their own domination."
Maurice Godelier
"The strongest bulwark of authority is uniformity; the least divergence from it is the greatest crime."
Emma Goldman
"To insist on strength ... is not war-mongering. It is peace-mongering."
Barry Morris Goldwater
"Courage is very important. Like a muscle, it is strengthened by use."
Ruth Gordon

Amy Grant
"Life only demands from you the strength you possess. Only one feat is possible--not to have run away."
Dag Hjalmar Agné Carl Hammarskjold
"If you think a weakness can be turned into a strength, I hate to tell you this, but that's another weakness."
Jack Handey [Deep Thoughts]
"The memories of my family outings are still a source of strength to me. I remember we'd all pile into the car---I forget what kind it was---and drive and drive. I'm not sure where we'd go, but I think there were some trees there. The smell of something was strong in the air as we played whatever sport we played. I remember a bigger, older guy we called 'Dad.' We'd eat some stuff, or not, and then I think we went home. I guess some things never leave you."
Jack Handey [Deep Thoughts]
