Results from Cole's Quotables:

Above all, we are coming to understand that the arts incarnate the creativity of a free people. When the creative impulse cannot flourish, when it cannot freely select its methods and objects, when it is deprived of spontaneity, then society severs the root of art.: John Fitzgerald Kennedy
Freedom of speech and freedom of action are meaningless without freedom to think. And there is no freedom of thought without doubt.: Bergen Evans, The Natural History of Nonsense (1946)
The mind has a thousand eyes. And the heart but one; Yet the life of a whole life dies When love is done.: Francis William Bourdillon
Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. If you love what you are doing, you will be successful.: Herman Cain
Character is doing the right thing when nobody's looking. There are too many people who think that the only thing that's right is to get by, and the only thing that's wrong is to get caught.: J. C. Watts
How is one to live a moral and compassionate existence when one is fully aware of the blood, the horror inherent in life, when one finds darkness not only in one's culture but within oneself? If there is a stage at which an individual life becomes truly adult, it must be when one grasps the irony in its unfolding and accepts responsibility for a life lived in the midst of such paradox. One must live in the middle of contradiction, because if all contradiction were eliminated at once life would collapse. There are simply no answers to some of the great pressing questions. You continue to live them out, making your life a worthy expression of leaning into the light.: Barry Lopez, Arctic Dreams
The mind cannot long act the role of the heart.: Francois de la Rochefoucauld (1613 - 1680)
When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives mean the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares.: Henri Nouwen, Out of Solitude
What then have I done? What, except yield to a natural feeling, inspired by beauty, sanctioned by virtue and kept at all times within the bounds of respect. It's innocent expression prompted not by hope but by trust.: Vicomte de Valmont, Les Liaisons Dangereuses
If we deny love that is given to us, if we refuse to give love because we fear pain or loss, then our lives will be empty, our loss greater.: Unknown
