Phillips Brooks


Life comes before literature, as the material always comes before the work. The hills are full of marble before the world blooms with statues.

Cullen Hightower


There's always somebody who is paid too much, and taxed too little - and it's always somebody else.

Eric Hoffer, "The True Believer", 1951

Oliver Cromwell


I beseech you, in the bowels of Christ, think it possible you may be mistaken.

John Dryden


All human things are subject to decay,And, when Fate summons, monarchs must obeyThis Flecknoe found, who like Augustus youngWas call'd to empire, and had govern'd longIn prose and verse, was own'd, without disputeThrough all the realms of nonsense, absolute.

Kurt Vonnegut, Jr.

Barbara Hall


You're alive. Do something. The directive in life, the moral imperative was so uncomplicated. It could be expressed in single words, not complete sentences. It sounded like this Look. Listen. Choose. Act.

Sir Francis Bacon, "Of Death"


Men fear death as children fear to go in the dark; and as that natural fear in children is increased by tales, so is the other.

H. L. Mencken


Man is never honestly the fatalist, nor even the stoic. He fights his fate, often desperately. He is forever entering bold exceptions to the rulings of the bench of gods. This fighting, no doubt, makes for human progress, for it favors the strong and the brave. It also makes for beauty, for lesser men try to escape from a hopeless and intolerable world by creating a more lovely one of their own.
