Edward Abbey


A patriot must always be ready to defend his country against his government.

Peter de Gaston Levis


To judge the real importance of an individual, we should think of the effect his death would produce.

Simms


Neither praise nor blame is the object of true criticism. Justly to discriminate, firmly to establish, wisely to proscribe, and honestly to award - these are the true aims and duties of criticism.

Henry David Thoreau


I have never found a companion that was so companionable as solitude. We are for the most part more lonely when we go abroad among men than when we stay in our chambers. A man thinking or working is always alone, let him be where he will.

Alfred North Whitehead


Periods of tranquility are seldom prolific of creative achievement. Mankind has to be stirred up.

Harry Emerson Fosdick

I have been assured by a very knowing American of my acquaintance in London, that a young healthy child well nursed is at a year old a most delicious, nourishing, and wholesome food, whether stewed, roasted, baked, or boiled, and I make no doubt that it will equally serve in a fricassee, or a ragout.

Vince Lombardi

Walt Whitman


And whether I come to my own today or in ten thousand or ten million years, I can cheefully take it now, or with equal cheerfulness I can wait... And as to you, Life, I reckon you are the leavings of many deaths, (No doubt I have died myself ten thousand times before.)
