As long as you live and breath, believe. Believe for those who cannot. Believe even if you stopped believing. Believe for the sake of the dead, for love, to keep your heart beating, believe. Never give up, never despair, let no mystery confound you into the conclusion that mystery cannot be yours (Who Quotes)
So the people will pay the penalty for their kings' presumption, who, by devising evil, turn justice from her path with tortuous speech (Who Quotes)

A man who works evil against another works it really against himself, and bad advice is worst for the one who devised it (Who Quotes)
