Here is everything which can lay hold of the eye, ear and imagination--everything which can charm and bewitch the simple and ignor...ant. I wonder how Luther ever broke the spell.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
Listen to me, imbecile. If the Treasury is important, then human life is not. This is clear. All those who think like you ought to... admit this reasoning and count their lives for nothing because they hold money for everything.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
I am fooling only myself when I say my mother exists now only in the photograph on my bulletin board or in the outline of my hand ...or in the armful of memories I still hold tight. She lives on in everything I do. Her presence influenced who I was, and her absence influences who I am. Our lives are shaped as much by those who leave us as they are by those who stay. Loss is our legacy. Insight is our gift. Memory is our guide.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
I wonder that we Americans love our country at all, it having no limits and no oneness; and when you try to make it a matter of th...e heart, everything falls away except one's native State;Mneither can you seize hold of that, unless you tear it out of the Union, bleeding and quivering.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
Frances Stevens: Even in this light, I can tell where your eyes are looking. Look John, hold them--diamonds--the only thing in the... world you can't resist. Then tell me you don't know what I'm talking about. Ever had a better offer in your whole life, one with everything? John Robie: I've never had a crazier one.

That whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
Now, since our condition accommodates things to itself, and transforms them according to itself, we no longer know things in their... reality; for nothing comes to us that is not altered and falsified by our Senses. When the compass, the square, and the rule are untrue, all the calculations drawn from them, all the buildings erected by their measure, are of necessity also defective and out of plumb. The uncertainty of our senses renders uncertain everything that they produce.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
