Intelligence plus character-that is the goal of true education.

Karis Nemik's Manifesto, Andor

There will be times when the struggle seems impossible. I know this already. Alone, unsure, dwarfed by the scale of the enemy. Remember this. Freedom is a pure idea. It occurs spontaneously and without instruction. Random acts of insurrection are occurring constantly throughout the galaxy. There are whole armies, battalions that have no idea that they've already enlisted in the cause. Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward. And then remember this. The Imperial need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that. And know this, the day will come when all these skirmishes and battles, these moments of defiance will have flooded the banks of the Empire's authority and then there will be one too many. One single thing will break the siege. Remember this. Try.

Emma Jane Rae

Weeping willow with your tears running down,
why do you always weep and frown?
is it because he left you one day?
is it because he couldnt not stay?
on your branches he would swing,
do you love the happiness that he would bring?
he found shelter in your shade,
we thought his laughter would never fade!
Weeping willow stop your tears,
there is something to calm your fears,
you think death as you do forever part,
i know he will always be in your heart!

Nat "King" Cole, Nature Boy

The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return.

1 Corinthians 1:27

But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong.

John 16:33 NIV

I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.

Philippians 1: 20, 21 NIV

²⁰ I can hardly wait to continue on my course. I don't expect to be embarrassed in the least. On the contrary, everything happening to me in this jail only serves to make Christ more accurately known, regardless of whether I live or die. They didn't shut me up; they gave me a pulpit!

²¹ Alive, I'm Christ's messenger; dead, I'm his bounty. Life versus even more life! I can't lose.

Genesis 50:20, NIV

You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives.

C. S. Lewis

You never know how much you really believe anything until its truth or falsehood becomes a matter of life or death to you.

Carl Sagan

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

Isaac Asimov

I believe in evidence. I believe in observation, measurement, and reasoning, confirmed by independent observers. I'll believe anything, no matter how wild and ridiculous, if there is evidence for it. The wilder and more ridiculous something is, however, the firmer and more solid the evidence will have to be.

"Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence." ~ Carl Sagan

The best memories are ones that you could never, ever forget.

Lisa Dollar

When an adult says, 'Hi,' he means, 'I acknowledge your presence.' When a child says, 'Hi,' he means, 'I like you. Let's play tag, and afterwards we can throw sand at each other.' I hope I always say hi like a child.

Jean-Baptiste Poquelin Molière

Nearly all men die of their remedies, and not of their illnesses.

Psalm 139:13-18 NIV

¹³ For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. ¹⁴ I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful,I know that full well. ¹⁵ My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth. ¹⁶ Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be. ¹⁷ How precious to me are your thoughts,^[a] God! How vast is the sum of them! ¹⁸ Were I to count them, they would outnumber the grains of sand— when I awake, I am still with you.
