"You have to lead people gently toward what they already know is right."	Philip
"To keep the fire burning brightly, there's one easy rule: keep the two logs together, near enough to keep each other warm and far enough apart -- about a finger's breadth -- for breathing room. Good fire, good marriage, same rule."	Marnie Reed Crowell
"Existence, as we know it, is full of sorrow. To mention only one minor point: every man is a condemned criminal, only he does not know the date of his execution. This is unpleasant for every man. Consequently every man does everything possible to postpone the date, and would sacrifice anything that he has if he could reverse the sentence. Practically all religions and all philosophies have started thus crudely, by promising their adherents some such reward as immortality. No religion has failed hitherto by not promising enough; the present breaking up of all religions is due to the fact that people have asked to see the securities. Men have even renounced the important material advantages which a well-organized religion may confer upon a State, rather than acquiesce in fraud or falsehood, or even in any system which, if not proved guilty, is at least unable to demonstrate its innocence. Being more or less bankrupt, the best thing that we can do is to attack the problem afresh without preconceived ideas. Let us begin by doubting every statement. Let us find a way of subjecting every statement to the test of experiment. Is there any truth at all in the claims of various religions? Let us examine the question."	Aleister Crowley
"We must conquer war or war will conquer us."	Ely Culbertson
"To be nobody-but-yourself--in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else--means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting."	E(dward) E(stlin) Cummings
"To be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting."	E(dward) E(stlin) Cummings
"Every step toward Christ kills a doubt. Every thought, word, and deed for Him carries you away from discouragement."	Theodore Ledyard Cuyler
"Once you have flown, you will walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward; for there you have been, there you long to return."	Leonardo da Vinci
"Fight for your opinions, but do not believe that they contain the whole truth or the only truth."	Charles Anderson Dana
"The man who fights for his fellow-man is a better man than the one who fights for himself."	Clarence Seward Darrow
" "As the representatives of the people we are here to declare that our resolve has not been weakened by these horrific and cowardly acts." [referring to the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon]"	Tom Daschle
"The most difficult thing is the decision to act, the rest is merely tenacity. The fears are paper tigers. You can do anything you decide to do. You can act to change and control your life; and the procedure , the process is its own reward."	Robyn Davidson
"I worked night and day for twelve years to prevent the war, but I could not. The North was mad and blind, would not let us govern ourselves, and so the war came."	Jefferson Davis
"Love is the strongest force the world possesses, and yet it is the Greatness of a road leading towards the unknown."	General Charles De Gaulle
"I predict you will sink step by step into a bottomless quagmire, however much you spend in men and money." (On Vietnam War)"	General Charles De Gaulle
"Imagination is the one weapon in the war against reality."	Jules de Gaultier
"I am about to put foward some major ideas; they will be heard and pondered. If not all of them please, surely a few will; in some sort, then, I shall have contributed to the progress of our age, and shall be content."	Marquis de Sade
"I have no country to fight for; my country is the earth, and I am a citizen of the world."	Eugene V. Debs
"Each problem that I solved became a rule which served afterwards to solve other problems."	Rene Descartes
"In communities where men build ships for their own sons to fish or fight from, quality is never a problem."	J. Deville
