"Life is like music, it must be composed by ear, feeling and instinct, not by rule. Nevertheless one had better know the rules, for they sometimes guide in doubtful cases, though not often." Samuel Butler 4.3913 average rating Rate this Quote
"But the greatest menace to our civilization today is the conflict between giant organized systems of self-righteousness -- each system only too delighted to find that the other is wicked -- each only too glad that the sins give it the pretext for still deeper hatred and animosity." Herbert Butterfield 5.0000 average rating Rate this Quote

"One's family is the most important thing in life. I look at it this way: One of these days I'll be over in a hospital somewhere with four walls around me. And the only people who'll be with me will be my family." Robert C. Byrd 4.5000 average rating Rate this Quote

"Indeed, the Founders mentioned the pagan authors in so many heartfelt speeches, pamphlets and letters that today's sweeping references to America's 'Christian' roots and 'Judeo-Christian heritage' ought to be amended. Maybe these terms should be reserved to explain the traditional religions and morality of individuals, families, congregations, small communitities. Politically, our notions of virtue and vice have had another genesis." Colin Campbell Rate this Quote
"[Jesus'] ministry was clearly defined, and the alternatives to the illusion and temptations of the desert were spelled out. A choice was made--life abundant, full, and free for all. Make no mistake about it, the day that choice was made, Jesus became suspect. That day in the temple he sealed the fate already prepared for him. How was the world to understand one who rejected an offer of power and control?" Joan B. Campbell 4.6000 average rating Rate this Quote
"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 4.3000 average rating Rate this Quote
"I sometimes think of what future historians will say of us. A single sentence will suffice for modern man: he fornicated and read the papers." Albert Camus 4.0000 average rating Rate this Quote

"It takes 20 years to make an overnight success." Eddie Cantor 5.0000 average rating Rate this Quote
"It's a scientific fact that if you stay in California you lose one point of your IQ every year." Truman Capote 5.0000 average rating Rate this Quote
