We Quotes

In solemn awe pronounce the name, and in its naked deathless splendor leave it shining on Picture Quote #1

What I'm doing is writing stories about women who care about justice. They are women who think about the difference between right and wrong, what's legal and illegal, ethical and unethical, moral and immoral Picture Quote #1

Beauty is the disinterested one, without which the ancient world refused to understand itself, a word which both imperceptibly and yet unmistakably has bid farewell to our new world, a world of interests, leaving it to it's own avarice and sadness Picture Quote #1

We do not practice so that we can control our thoughts. We practice so that our thoughts do not control us Picture Quote #1

We live in the midst of alarms; anxiety beclouds the future; we expect some new disaster with each newspaper we read Picture Quote #1

Men are not flattered by being shown that there has been a difference of purpose between the Almighty and them Picture Quote #1

If slavery is right, all words, acts, laws, and constitutions against it, are themselves wrong, and should be silenced, and swept away Picture Quote #1

Neither let us be slandered from our duty by false accusations against us, nor frightened from it by menaces of destruction to the Government nor of dungeons to ourselves. Let us have faith that right makes might, and in that faith, let us, to the end, dare to do our duty as we understand it Picture Quote #1

Certainly it is not so easy to pay something as it is to pay nothing, but it is easier to pay a large sum than it is to pay a larger one. And it is easier to pay any sum when we are able than it is to pay it before we are able Picture Quote #1

They cannot but remain face to face; and intercourse, either amicable or hostile, must continue between them Picture Quote #1

Good books are to the young mind what the warming sun and the refreshing rain of spring are to the seeds which have lain dormant in the frosts of winter. They are more, for they may save from that which is worse than death, as well as bless with that which is better than life Picture Quote #1
