“Whatever you do will be insignificant, but it is very important that you do it.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“If by a "Liberal" they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people-their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights and their civil liberties-someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a "Liberal", then I'm proud to say I'm a "Liberal.”
John F. Kennedy, Profiles in Courage

“Oh, the wickedness of man is very great," said Villefort, "since it surpasses the goodness of God.”
Alexandre Dumas, The Count of Monte Cristo

“Excitement, like enthusiasm, sometimes renders us unconscious to the things of earth.”
Alexandre Dumas, Works of Alexandre Dumas

“(stare in dimidio rerum),”
