Quotes

"It's better to be six feet apart right now than six feet under."

Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer

"Blognito ergo sum!"

The Culture Ghost

"Caedite eos! Novit enim Dominus qui sunt eius."

Abbé Arnaud-Amaury of Citeaux

"Das war ein Vorspiel nur, dort wo man Bücher verbrennt, verbrennt man auch am Ende Menschen."

Heinrich Heine

"Все счастливые семьи похожи друг на друга, каждая несчастливая семья несчастлива по-своему."

Толстой Лев Николаевич

"Кто что ни говори, а подобные происшествия бывают на свете, - редко, но бывают."

Гоголь Николай Васильевич

"A person who has a cat by the tail knows a whole lot more about cats than someone who has just read about them."

Mark Twain

"There are two novels that can change a bookish 14-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs."

John Rogers

"The presence of those seeking the truth is infinitely to be preferred to the presence of those who think they've found it."

Sir Terry Pratchett
