i agree. how can we be shocked and appauled at the lack of moral fortitude of society at large, when "we" as a society insist upon the right to choose.\n\ni am pro choice. but the reality of which Mother Teresa speaks is true, may she rest in peace.

Quotes can be funny.\nQuotes can be true.\nQuotes can be sad.\nQuotes can describe you.\nQuotes can be false.\nQuotes can be blue.\nQuotes are timeless.\nQuotes, that are perfect, are so few.\n\nThese are some of the ones that I think near perfection.\n\nLife begins to end when we are silent about the things that matter.

Pretty much the quote states that even the more powerful people in the world make mistakes and aren't always correct in their ways of solving problems.  And that a truly good person would be able to see that they're way isn't the right way and will allow other solutions to the problem, as long as the problem gets resolved peacefully.  And that the worst thing a person can do is be too proud to take someone else's advice.  In Antigone, her father I believe (it's been a while since I read this) is so set in his ways and believing he's right, that he won't see things from Antigone's point of view.  Due to his pride, it results in his daughter's death (I'm pretty sure she dies in this), which is not an affective solution to the problem.  I'm sorry I can't remember quotes and things of that sort.  But I hope I put you on the right track!  Good luck!

Al Franken may have quoted Benjamin Franklin. It's a good quote and makes a very good point. Unfortunately, the key word here is "deserve."\n\nWe're constitutionally obligated to provide safety even to those lunk-heads who would try to usurp our rights out of their own fear.\n\nAlso, "liberty" is an unalienable right and can't be "deserved."\n\nIt's a bombastic quote that can't be put into practical use.

You are upsetting me.  I have searched all of Orwell's works with that quote and no source is turning up, just that it is a quote attributed to Orwell.  I have read 1984 several times, and this quote is ringing all kinds of bells.  It has to be from that book.  I will keep looking for it.  It is personal now.\n\nGot it...\n"The Collected Essays, Journalism and Letters of George Orwell" Volume 4, page 51

Full quote:\n\n"If Tyranny and Oppression come to this land, it will be in the guise of fighting a foreign enemy."\n\nFear is a very powerful weapon.  When the people of a community or nation are fearful of an outside force threatening their lives they will give up freedoms for the assurance of safety.  It's always easier to incite fear when the enemy is "not one of us."\n\nAs an example....\n\nSome say this is what George W. Bush did over four years ago after September 11, 2001.  The United States was in shock.  An enemy had entered our country, done great damage to property and killed thousands of people.  Nothing of this magnitude had happened like this since Pearl Harbor.\n\nIn an attempt to cut off any future terrorist attacks the President proposed and Congress passed new laws that made sweeping changes in privacy laws allowing oversight and intrusion hitherto not seen before in the U.S.\n\nGenerally a majority of the American public has supported these limitations.  The danger lies, as Madison pointed out, in making sure that these changes are kept in check.

those are all good quotes but this is the one i live by: \n\n"In the end, its the chances we never took that we regret the most" \n\nOn the show frasier, frasier said it on his season finale and i never forgot it, i try to live by it but it is not always easy. i would love to know who originally came up with it is.  whenever i get scared to take a class i just read this saying, i even framed it on my wall

The premise of the quote is rooted in the belief that first of all there is a 'truth' to be known.  And knowing that truth and being unhappy because of that truth is better then living under false pre-tense and feeling happy.  ie. having a girlfriend who you know is cheating on you and staying with her. Is better than being happy and not knowing that your girlfriend is cheating on you.\n\nI think the quote takes the possibly to the extreme.  The person who created this quote doesn't necessarily believe that the 'truth' means that someone will be unhappy.  Rather that the 'truth' is the most important thing.

figured out and carried out, as best I could, my purpose for being alive:  for me that means being loving, honest, ethical, of service to others. . .\n\nSomeone said "why is this in ethics or spirituality?"  I cannot think of a better place to put it, and thanks for giving us something to think about.\n\nFinally, that tim McGraw song, if you liked it or thought it was corny. . . still had some good points.\n"someday I hope you get the chance to live like you were dying."  peace

This is a slight modification of a quote by Clemenceau (not Churchill, to whom it has been wrongly attributed).  It is a catchy phrase, of course, and that explains its popularity, but as for its substance, it isn't ungenerous to say that the quote is both heartless and brainless itself.  It is heartless in that it is offensive to both young people who oppose socialism and to old ones who redeem it.  It is brainless in that, in its simplicity, it contends that a significant contingent of renowned scientists (who are indeed disproportionately liberal and somewhat socialst) are brainless.  (To claim that Bertrand Russell and Albert Einstein were brainless is indeed brainless in itself.)

If you wish to wander into the realm of existentialism, I'd suggest hitting your thumb with a hammer.\n\nPain is the greatest qualifier of life.\n\nBTW: liked the words.
