This arena is a special place. Everybody loves it. To be able to stand behind the bench and be a part of a great tournament for the '96 Elite is fun. The kids, having a chance to play in the building where the Penguins play, it's a special feeling for them. ~Mario Lemieux

If Darwin could see what we now see, what we now know about the ocean, about the atmosphere, about the nature of life, as we now understand it, about the importance of microbes. I think he would just beam with joy that many of the thoughts and the glimpses of the majesty of life on Earth that he had during his life, now magnified many times over. ~Sylvia Earle

Whom drink made wits, though nature made them fools. ~Charles Churchill

What Clinton severed with his welfare reform was the obligation of the federal government to step in when the states failed and to monitor these programs. ~Robert Scheer

Mozart eliminates the idea of haste from life. His airs could not lag as they make their journey through the listener's attention; they are not the right shape for loitering. But it is as true that they never rush, they are never headlong or helter-skelter, they splash no mud, they raise no dust. ~Rebecca West
#quotes #rebecca-west #mozart #music
We understand ourselves through stories, by making stories out of our lives. Storytellers give people structure with which they can begin to look at their own lives and try to make sense of them. ~Bill Harley

May God in his mercy enable us without obstinacy to perceive our errors. ~Michael Servetus

Where men of judgment creep and feel their way, the positive pronounce without dismay. ~William Cowper
#quotes #william-cowper #judging
A philosopher is, no doubt, entitled to examine even those distinctions that are to be found in the structure of all languages; in that case, such a distinction may be imputed to a vulgar error, which ought to be corrected in philosophy. ~Thomas Reid

Patience is the only way you can endure the gray periods. ~Teri Hatcher
#quotes #teri-hatcher #patience
Weep now, but tomorrow be strong. Remember who we are and that whatever else is taken from us, they will never strip our honour and our pride. ~Elizabeth Chadwick
#quotes #elizabeth-chadwick #honor #pride
Happy are men who yet before they are killed, can let their veins run cold. ~Wilfred Owen
#quotes #wilfred-owen #war #death
I keep my house tidy, because then I can think clearly. I feel the same about myself. Presenting yourself well is a working-class thing; my dad was a printer, but he wore a tie most days. The ungroomed look belongs more to the middle classes. ~Gary Kemp

Anyone who is not an anarchist agrees with having a policeman at the corner of the street; but the danger at present is that of finding the policeman half-way down the chimney or even under the bed. ~Gilbert K. Chesterton
