| "History is the version of past events that people have decided to agree upon." -Napoleon "You can't depend on your eyes when your imagination is out of focus." -Mark Twain "Tradition means giving votes to the most obscure of all classes, our ancestors. It is the democracy of the dead. Tradition refuses to submit to that arrogant oligarchy who merely happen to be walking around." -GK Chesterton "Love never dies a natural death. It dies because we don't know how to replenish it's source. It dies of blindness and errors and betrayals. It dies of illness and wounds; it dies of weariness, of witherings, of tarnishings." -Anais Nin "Imagination is a quality given a man to compensate him for what he is not, and a sense of humor was provided to console him for what he is." -Oscar Wilde "It's difficult in times like these: ideals, dreams and cherished hopes rise within us, only to be crushed by grim reality. It's a wonder I haven't abandoned all my ideals, they seem so absurd and impractical. Yet I cling to them because I still believe, in spite of everything, that people are truly good at heart." -Anne Frank "In Christianity neither morality nor religion come into contact with reality at any point." -Friedrich Nietzsche "We do not write because we want to; we write because we have to." -W. Somerset Maugham "Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counsellors, and the most patient of teachers." -Charles W. Eliot "Where is human nature so weak as in the bookstore?" -Henry Ward Beecher |
