When a man you don't like does it,
he is a liar who has broken his promise.
- Franklin Pierce Adams

in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.
- Mark Twain
Whatever your work and whatever its worth,
No matter how strong or clever,

And wherever you chance to hit it,
Though close be your aim to the bull's-eye fame,
There are those who will never admit it.
- Ella Wheeler Wilcox
Living in the present moment requires discretion toward memory.

As for our present moment, delight.
And dedication to remain fully present to all the possibility.
- Mary Anne Radmacher

ignorance and crime, and dries up
all the fountains of joy in the world.
- Helen Keller

you have to find your innermost core on your own,
with no guide, no guiding scriptures.

they are simply avoiding the great adventure
of religion by believing.

- P. J. O'Rourke
An individual who breaks a law that
conscience tells him is unjust,

- Martin Luther King, Jr.

without liberty, no happiness can be enjoyed by society.

Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will

and always so when it violates the rights of the individual.
- Thomas Jefferson
I submit that an individual who breaks the law
that conscience tells him is unjust
and willingly accepts the penalty by staying in jail
to arouse the conscience of the community over its injustice,
is in reality expressing the very highest respect for law.

From one point of view, one individual's vote
doesn't make any difference whatsoever.
The probability of an election swinging
by a single vote is infinitesimal.
On the other hand, if everybody took the attitude
that voting didn't matter, there could never
be a democratically elected government - at all.
So, does your vote matter? You bet your vote matters.
And, at least as much as your vote matters,
your intention for the future of the world matters.
That's so important, it's worth saying again.
At Least As Much As Your Vote Matters,
Your Intention For The Future Of The Entire World Matters.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
Instead of comparing our lot with that
of those who are more fortunate than we are,

It then appears that we are among the privileged.
- Helen Keller
In matters of conscience,
the law of the majority has no place.

it is time to pause and reflect.

because the minority is generally formed by those
who really have an opinion.

The majority of men meet with failure
because of their lack of persistence

the place of those which fail.

Truth always rests with the minority,
and the minority is always stronger than the majority,
because the minority is generally formed by those
who really have an opinion,
while the strength of a majority is illusory,
formed by the gangs who have no opinion -
and who, therefore, in the next instant
(when it is evident that the minority is the stronger)
assume its opinion... while truth again reverts to a new minority.
- Soren Kierkegaard
We may consider each generation as a distinct nation,
with a right, by the will of its majority,
to bind themselves, but none to
bind the succeeding generation,
more than the inhabitants of another country.
- Thomas Jefferson
All, too, will bear in mind this sacred principle,
that though the will of the majority is in all cases to prevail,
that will to be rightful must be reasonable;
that the minority possess their equal rights,
which equal law must protect, and to violate would be oppression.
- Thomas Jefferson
Always be a first-rate version of yourself,
instead of a second-rate version of somebody else.

by age, sex, color, class, or religion,
children must have the opportunity
to learn that within each range,
some people are loathsome and some are delightful.
