- The way to win an atomic war is to make certain it never starts.
- Omar Bradley (1893 - 1981), Speech to Boston Chamber of Commerce, 1948
- All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players. They have their exits and their entrances; And one man in his time plays many parts... - William Shakespeare (1564 - 1616), "As You Like It", Act 2 scene 7
- The quality of mercy is not strain'd,
It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven Upon the place beneath. It is twice blest: It blesseth him that gives and him that takes. 'T is mightiest in the mightiest: it becomes The throned monarch better than his crown; His sceptre shows the force of temporal power, The attribute to awe and majesty, Wherein doth sit the dread and fear of kings; But mercy is above this sceptred sway, It is enthroned in the hearts of kings, It is an attribute to God himself; And earthly power doth then show likest God's, When mercy seasons justice. Therefore, Jew, Though justice be thy plea, consider this, That in the course of justice none of us Should see salvation: we do pray for mercy; And that same prayer doth teach us all to render The deeds of mercy. - William Shakespeare (1564 - 1616), "The Merchant of Venice", Act 4 scene 1
- Friendship is constant in all other things
Save in the office and affairs of love: Therefore all hearts in love use their own tongues; Let every eye negotiate for itself And trust no agent. - William Shakespeare (1564 - 1616), "Much Ado about Nothing", Act 2 scene 1
- Your hearts are mighty, your skins are whole.
- William Shakespeare (1564 - 1616), "The Merry Wives of Windsor", Act 4 scene 1

- Ovid (43 BC - 17 AD)
- O tyrant love, to what do you not drive the hearts of men.
- Virgil (70 BC - 19 BC)
- What an absurd thing it is to pass over all the valuable parts of a man, and fix our attention on his infirmities.
- Joseph Addison (1672 - 1719)
- The arts are the servant; wisdom its master.
- Seneca (5 BC - 65 AD)
- Gratitude is born in hearts that take time to count up past mercies.
