Madonna CicconeWolves which batten upon lambs, lambs consumed by wolves, the strong who immolate the weak, the weak victims of the strong: there you have Nature, there you have her intentions, there you have her scheme: a perpetual action and reaction, a host of vices, a host of virtues, in one word, a perfect equilibrium resulting from the equality of good and evil on earth.

Assata ShakurThe surest way to know our gold, is to look upon it and examine it in God's furnace, where he tries it that we may see what it is.

If we would weigh ourselves justly we must weigh ourselves in God's scales that he makes use of to weigh us.

Rajiv GandhiShe'd assumed she'd be married and have kids by this age, that she would be grooming her own daughter for this, as her friends were doing. She wanted it so much she would dream about it sometimes, and then she would wake up with the skin at her wrists and neck red from the scratchy lace of the wedding gown she'd dreamed of wearing.

And her desire to marry wasn't strong enough, would never be strong enough, to allow her to marry a man she didn't love.

This war must be brought about so that Nazism is destroyed and that the political Zionism be strong enough to institute a sovereign state of Israel in Palestine.

One may bask at the warm fire of faith or choose to live in the bleak uncertainty of reason--but one cannot have both.

Timothy PickeringYou can have large projects and implement them by means of a few of the smallest things.

Pope Francis
