“There is a saying that no man has tasted the full flavour of life until he has known poverty, love and war. The justness of this reflection commends it to the lover of condensed philosophy. The three conditions embrace about all there is in life worth knowing. A surface thinker might deem that wealth should be added to the list. Not so. When a poor man finds a long-hidden quarter-dollar that has slipped through a rip into his vest lining, he sounds the pleasure of life with a deeper plummet than any millionaire can hope to cast.” MenShouldLongWarPhilosophyMightThreeSoundWealthPleasurePoorKnownPovertyKnowingConditionsLoversReflectionEmbraceDollarsCastsDeeperSurfaceListsThinkerQuartersRipMillionairePoor ManFlavourPleasures Of LifeVestsLove And War Book:Delphi Complete Works of O.

“I vote because it's what small-d democracy is about.

Not always an immediate difference. But a difference.” PeopleBigsRememberFightingHoursDifferencesKnowingDemocracyGenerationsOughtVoteCastsMaking A DifferenceBallots Author:Ellen Goodman
“The House, being strong, should be generous ... but the constituents have a right to more than generosity.... The law gives me my seat. In the name of the law I ask for it. I regret that my personality overshadows the principles involved in this great struggle; but I would ask those who have touched my life, not knowing it, who have found for me vices which I do not remember in the memory of my life, I would ask them whether all can afford to cast the first stone ... then that, as best judges, they will vacate their own seats, having deprived my constituents of their right here to mine.” GivingShouldFirstsRememberLawAsksFoundHouseNamesStrongMemoriesPrinciplesStruggleKnowingAtheismMinesJudgingRegretPersonalityInvolvedStonesGive MeCastsVicesPositive AtheismGenerosityGenerousSeatsTouchedNot KnowingDeprivedI RegretConstituents Author:Charles Bradlaugh
“So the question never comes up. I love to work with actors who I feel really confident in knowing what I'm going to get from them.

“O, this faith is a living, busy, active, powerful thing! It is impossible that it should not be ceaselessly doing that which is good. It does not even ask whether good works should be done; but before the question can be asked, it has done them, and it is constantly engaged in doing them. But he who does not do such works, is a man without faith. He gropes and casts about him to find faith and good works, not knowing what either of them is, and yet prattles and idly multiplies words about faith and good works.” MenShouldDoeDoneAsksPowerfulKnowingImpossibleBusyCastsActiveEngagedNot KnowingGood Work Author:Martin Luther
“One of my own stray childhood fears had been to wonder what a whale might feel like had it been born and bred in captivity, then released into the wild-into its ancestral sea-its limited world instantly blowing up when cast into the unknowable depths, seeing strange fish and tasting new waters, not even having a concept of depth, not knowing the language of any whale pods it might meet. It was my fear of a world that would expand suddenly, violently, and without rules or laws: bubbles and seaweed and storms and frightening volumes of dark blue that never end.” WorldFeelsEndsMightLawLanguageWaterBornDarkMy OwnWonderKnowingSeeingSeaChildhoodStrangeConceptsBlueDepthCastsFishesStormBubblesFrighteningNot KnowingVolumeWhalesTastingCaptivitySeaweedBlowing UpDark Blue Author:Douglas Coupland
