Results from Cole's Quotables:

The best way to cheer yourself is to try to cheer someone else up.: Mark Twain (1835 - 1910)
We pass the word around; we ponder how the case is put by different people, we read the poetry; we meditate over the literature; we play the music; we change our minds; we reach an understanding. Society evolves this way, not by shouting each other down, but by the unique capacity of unique, individual human beings to comprehend each other.: Lewis Thomas (1913 - 1993), The Medusa and the Snail (1979)
I like to believe that people in the long run are going to do more to promote peace than our governments. Indeed, I think that people want peace so much that one of these days governments had better get out of the way and let them have it.: Dwight D. Eisenhower (1890 - 1969)
Feeling good about government is like looking on the bright side of any catastrophe. When you quit looking on the bright side, the catastrophe is still there.: P. J. O'Rourke (1947 - ), Parliament of Whores (1991)
Whenever people agree with me I always feel I must be wrong.: Oscar Wilde (1854 - 1900)
The past is but the past of a beginning.: H. G. Wells (1866 - 1946)
Fact of the matter is, there is no hip world, there is no straight world. There's a world, you see, which has people in it who believe in a variety of different things. Everybody believes in something and everybody, by virtue of the fact that they believe in something, use that something to support their own existence.: Frank Zappa (1940 - 1993)
Respect your efforts, respect yourself. Self-respect leads to self-discipline. When you have both firmly under your belt, that's real power.: Clint Eastwood (1930 - )
It takes tremendous discipline to control the influence, the power you have over other people's lives.: Clint Eastwood (1930 - )
Politics are a lousy way for a free man to get things done. Politics are, like God's infinite mercy, a last resort.: P. J. O'Rourke (1947 - ), Parliament of Whores (1991)
