“If you asked somebody, 'what do you wish for in life?' they wouldn't say 'happiness.' I would have answered 'excitement, knowledge,' God knows - I mean, many, many different things, but certainly not 'happiness'. It seemed like a foreign concept to wish for something that specific and that singular.” IfsKnowsMeanDifferentWishConceptsExcitementDifferent ThingsGod Knows Author:Connie Nielsen
“The free enterprise concept inherent in the economic model of capitalism should mean common people, or lower and middle class wage-earners, have greater potential to rise up and gain financial independence. In reality, however, free enterprise all too often leads to an almost total lack of government regulation that in turn allows the global elite to run amuck in Gordon Gecko-style financial coups.” PeopleShouldMeanRealityGovernmentRunningTurnsCommonClassGreaterEconomicMiddleStyleModelsConceptsCapitalismGainsIndependenceFinancialEnterpriseMiddle ClassElitesRegulationInherentFree EnterpriseCoupsGovernment RegulationFinancial IndependenceEconomic Models Author:James Morcan
“Contrary to popular misconception, Islam does not mean peace but rather means submission to the commands of Allah alone.

“Emotional dependence is the opposite of emotional strength. It means needing to have others to survive, wanting others to "do it for us," and depending on others to give us our self-image, make our decisions, and take care of us financially. When we are emotionally dependent, we look to others for our happiness, our concept of "self," and our emotional well-being. Such vulnerability necessitates a search for and dependence on outer support for a sense of our own worth.” GivingWellsLooksMeanSelfCareDecisionSupportEmotionalConceptsOppositesTake CareWell BeingVulnerabilityBeing YourselfDependentDependenceEmotional StrengthEmotional Well BeingDepending On Others Author:Sue Thoele
“When one gives up the Christian faith, one pulls the right to Christian morality out from under one's feet. This morality is by no means self-evident. Christianity is a system, a whole view of things thought out together. By breaking one main concept out of it, the faith in God, one breaks the whole. It stands or falls with faith in God.” GivingMeanSelfWholeChristianTogetherFallViewsChristianityBreakFeetMoralityGiving UpConceptsFaith In GodEvidentChristian FaithChristian Morality Book:Twilight of the Idols Source: Twilight of the Idols
“One of the silliest lines ever said in a feature film came from Love Story, the 1970s hit, which immortalized the phrase, "Love means never having to say you're sorry."
