"Promises and pie-crust are made to be broken."
    -- Jonathan Swift
"By academic freedom I understand the right to search for truth and to publish and teach what one holds to be true. This right implies also a duty one must not conceal any part of what on has recognized to be true. It is evident that any restriction on academic freedom acts in such a way as to hamper the dissemination of knowledge among the people and thereby impedes national judgment and action."
    -- Albert Einstein
"Get rid of imagined guilt. You did the best you could at the time, all things considered. If you made mistakes, learn to accept that we are all imperfect. Only hindsight is 20-20. If you are convinced that you have real guilt, consider professional or spiritual counseling (with a competent and trustworthy counselor). If you believe in God a pastor can help you believe also in God's forgiveness."
    -- Amy Hillyard Jensen

It is no use s aying that radium is scarce- how scarce? You can not evade quantity. You may fly to poetry and music and quantity and number will face you in your rhythms and your octaves.Get Image
We cannot think first and act afterward. From the moment of birth we are immersed in action, and can only fitfully guide it by taking thought.Get Image
We think in generalities, but we live in detail.Get Image
What is morality in any given time or place? It is what the majority then and there happen to like, and immorality is what they dislike.Get Image
