General Quotes

“All eyes are opened, or opening, to the rights of man. The general spread of the light of science has already laid open to every view the palpable truth that the mass of mankind has not been born with saddles on their backs, nor a favored few booted and spurred, ready to ride them legitimately, by the grace of God. These are grounds of hope for others. For ourselves, let the annual return of this day forever refresh our recollection of these rights, and an undiminished devotion to them.”
Thomas Jefferson

“Part of being optimistic is keeping one's head pointed towards the sun, one's feet moving forward.”

Albert Einstein

“Growth comes through analogy; through seeing how things connect, rather than only seeing how they might be different.”

“You ask whether I have ever been in love: fool as I am, I am not such a fool as that. But if one is only to talk from first-hand experience, conversation would be a very poor business. But though I have no personal experience of the things they call love, I have what is better - the experience of Sappho, of Euripides, of Catallus, of Shakespeare, of Spenser, of Austen, of Bronte, of anyone else I have read.”
C.S. Lewis

“it’s important to make sure that we’re talking with each other in a way that heals, not in a way that wounds.”
