If we are just specks of dust hit by lightning, if we have no spark of God in us, why not just take whatever we can and devil take the hindmost? I mean, we are fools not to do that if there is no right or wrong. ~Ben Stein

The best men in all ages keep classic traditions alive. ~George Santayana
#quotes #george-santayana #traditions
We have different forms assigned to us in the school of life, different gifts imparted. All is not attractive that is good. Iron is useful, though it does not sparkle like the diamond. Gold has not the fragrance of a flower. So different persons have various modes of excellence, and we must have an eye to all. ~William Wilberforce
#quotes #william-wilberforce #personality

The only thing I really regret in life is not having a daughter. ~Gabriel Garcia Marquez
