“We must take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented. Sometimes we must interfere. When human lives are endangered, when human dignity is in jeopardy, national borders and sensitivities become irrelevant. Wherever men and women are persecuted because of their race, religion, or political views, that place must - at that moment - become the center of the universe.”
― Elie Wiesel, The Night Trilogy: Night, Dawn, The Accident

“I generally avoid temptation unless I can't resist it.”
― Mae West

“I see when men love women. They give them but a little of their lives. But women when they love give everything.”
― Oscar Wilde

“We understand death for the first time when he puts his hand upon one whom we love”
― Madame De Stael
