Anna Lappe, O Magazine, June 2003  
It's a sad day when you find out that it's not accident or time or fortune, but just yourself that kept things from you.

Lillian Hellman (1905 - 1984)  
The thought manifests as the word;
The word manifests as the deed;
The deed develops into habit;
And habit hardens into character;
So watch the thought and its ways with care,
And let it spring from love
Born out of concern for all beings…
As the shadow follows the body,
As we think, so we become.

Buddha (563 BC - 483 BC), Dhammapada  
Let us develop the resources of our land, call forth our powers, build up its institutions, promote all its great interests, and see whether we also, in our day and generation, may not perform something worthy to be remembered.

Daniel Webster (1782 - 1852), Address at the laying of the cornerstone of the bunker hill monument
