Quote: Ralph Waldo Emerson I am the lover of uncontained and immortal beauty. In the wilderness, I find something more dear and connate than in streets or villages. In the tranquil landscape, and especially in the distant line of the horizon, man beholds somewhat as beautiful as his own nature. Ralph Waldo Emerson
Quote: Marcus Aurelius If someone can prove me wrong and show me my mistake in any thought or action, I shall gladly change. I seek the truth, which never harmed anyone: the harm is to persist in one's own self-deception and ignorance. Marcus Aurelius
Quote: Theodore Roosevelt Every immigrant who comes here should be required within five years to learn English or leave the country. Theodore Roosevelt
Quote: Albert Einstein I appeal to all men and women, whether they be eminent or humble, to declare that they will refuse to give any further assistance to war or the preparation of war. Albert Einstein
Quote: Anthony Bourdain I've seen zero evidence of any nation on Earth other than Mexico even remotely having the slightest clue what Mexican food is about or even come close to reproducing it. It is perhaps the most misunderstood country and cuisine on Earth. Anthony Bourdain
Quote: Elon Musk I would like to fly in space. Absolutely. That would be cool. I used to just do personally risky things, but now I've got kids and responsibilities, so I can't be my own test pilot. That wouldn't be a good idea. But I definitely want to fly as soon as it's a sensible thing to do. Elon Musk
Quote: Abraham Lincoln I am humble . I have been solicited by my friends to become a candidate for the Legislature. My politics are short and sweet, like the old woman's dance. Abraham Lincoln
Quote: Albert Einstein The woman who follows the crowd will usually go no further than the crowd. The woman who walks alone is likely to find herself in places no one has ever been before. Albert Einstein
Quote: Mother Teresa God has created us to love and to be loved, and this is the beginning of prayer-to know that He loves me, that I have been created for greater things. Mother Teresa
Quote: Voltaire Such is the feebleness of humanity, such is its perversity, that doubtless it is better for it to be subject to all possible superstitions, as long as they are not murderous, than to live without religion. Voltaire
Quote: George Orwell If people cannot write well, they cannot think well, and if they cannot think well, others will do their thinking for them. George Orwell
Quote: Theodore Roosevelt In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag... We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language... and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people. Theodore Roosevelt
Quote: Martin Luther King Jr. Nonviolence means avoiding not only external physical violence but also internal violence of spirit. You not only refuse to shoot a man, but you refuse to hate him. Martin Luther King Jr.
Quote: David Bergen Depression One day, at my office, I wrote down some names and dates and notes, and I wrote a title, 'The Age of Despair,' and then some other 'Ages' - Innocence, God, Reason, Hope - and I wrote this as well: 'Woman, born in 1930, lives till the age of 80 or so, suffers depression, marries a car dealer, has children who grow up to confuse her.' David Bergen Depression
Quote: Henry Kissinger Leadership Leadership is absolutely vital if there are comparable countries which can affect the security of the world you live in. Between Lincoln and Roosevelt's time, America was protected by huge oceans and, in practice, by the British navy. Today, it's different, and the obsession of the Obama administration has been for retrenchment. Henry Kissinger Leadership
Quote: Zig Ziglar Family U.S. President Theodore Roosevelt has been described as founder of the Bull Moose Party, the man who led his troops up San Juan Hill in the Spanish-American War, a big game hunter, family man, civic servant and a host of other things. Zig Ziglar Family
Quote: Averell Harriman Leadership Roosevelt was the one who had the vision to change our policy from isolationism to world leadership. That was a terrific revolution. Our country's never been the same since.W. Averell Harriman Leadership
Quote: Michael Ignatieff Leadership Since Franklin Roosevelt's leadership in setting up the United Nations and the Nuremberg trials, the U.S. has promoted universal legal norms and the institutions to enforce them while seeking, by hook or by crook, to exempt American citizens, especially soldiers, from their actual application. Michael Ignatieff Leadership
Quote: Gore Vidal Depression By 1939, the Depression was back. Unemployment was huge. Roosevelt didn't have any quick fix. Remember, the New Deal, Works Progress Administration, and Civilian Conservation Corps - all that happened years before. Roosevelt was riding a storm. Gore Vidal Depression
Quote: Winston Churchill Meeting Franklin Roosevelt was like opening your first bottle of champagne; knowing him was like drinking it. Winston Churchill
Quote: Tina Brown Depression Franklin D. Roosevelt was fortunate: He didn't take office until nearly four years after the Wall Street crash, by which time the Republicans' responsibility for the Depression was taken for granted. Tina Brown Depression
Quote: Robert Dallek Depression George Washington sets the nation on its democratic path. Abraham Lincoln preserves it. Franklin Roosevelt sees the nation through depression and war. Robert Dallek Depression
Quote: Winston Churchill One day President Roosevelt told me that he was asking publicly for suggestions about what the war should be called. I said at once 'The Unnecessary War'. Winston Churchill
