“That which does not kill us makes us stronger.”
― Friedrich Nietzsche

“So many books, so little time.”
― Frank Zappa

“Folks are usually about as happy as they make their minds up to be.”
― Abraham Lincoln

“The preachers and lecturers deal with men of straw, as they are men of straw themselves. Why, a free-spoken man, of sound lungs, cannot draw a long breath without causing your rotten institutions to come toppling down by the vacuum he makes. Your church is a baby-house made of blocks, and so of the state.

...The church, the state, the school, the magazine, think they are liberal and free! It is the freedom of a prison-yard.”
― Henry David Thoreau, I to Myself: An Annotated Selection from the Journal of Henry D. Thoreau
