The Christians and Jews can live side by side with the Muslims, as they did in the heart of Europe for over 800 years in Andalusia.

Robert Black

Women should not be penalized for being women. Equally, men should not be penalized for being men. I fear that in overly politically correct western Christian democracies, the latter is occurring. It should not be forgotten that nature will correct the pendulum, so that is does not swing too far either way.

Thomas Paine

As to the Christian system of faith, it appears to me as a species of Atheism — a sort of religious denial of God. It professes to believe in a man rather than in God. It is a compound made up chiefly of Manism with but little Deism, and is as near to Atheism as twilight is to darkness. It introduces between man and his Maker an opaque body, which it calls a Redeemer, as the moon introduces her opaque self between the earth and the sun, and it produces by this means a religious, or an irreligious, eclipse of light. It has put the whole orbit of reason into shade.

Dispositions of the mind, like limbs of the body, acquire strength by exercise.

Thomas Jefferson

The question whether the judges are invested with exclusive authority to decide on the constitutionality of a law has been heretofore a subject of consideration with me in the exercise of official duties. Certainly there is not a word in the Constitution which has given that power to them more than to the Executive or Legislative branches.

Anne Sexton

My death from the wrists, two name tags, blood worn like a corsage to bloom one on the left and one on the right.

Lee Krasner

In the late 30s the name Pollock was totally unknown and unheard of.

Lil Wayne

All about my riches/ My name should be Richard

We should therefore claim, in the name of tolerance, the right not to tolerate the intolerant.

Peter Greenaway

If Good approved of his creature's creation, He breathed the painted clay-model into life by signing His name.

Lloyd Alexander

Once you have courage to look upon evil, seeing it for what it is and naming it by its true name, it is powerless against you, and you can destroy it.
