Mankind is a great, immense family… This is proved by what we feel in our hearts at Christmas.
Our heart ever changes its place till it finds love, and then it has its rest.

As a camel beareth labour, and heat, and hunger, and thirst, through deserts of sand, and fainteth not; so the fortitude of a man shall sustain him through all perils.
Restaurants get you in with food to sell you liquor; religions get you in with belief to sell you rules.

Make haste in doing good; check your mind from evil; for the mind of him who is slow in doing meritorious actions delights in evil.

It's weird to feel like you miss someone you're not even sure you know.
-David Foster Wallace
If women were particular about men's characters, they would never get married at all.
-George Bernard Shaw
Music, when combined with a pleasurable idea, is poetry; Music, without the idea, is simply music; the idea, without the music, is prose, from its very definitiveness.
-Edgar Allan Poe
