Always recognize that human individuals are ends, and do not use them as means to your end.
Immanuel Kant
Even philosophers will praise war as ennobling mankind, forgetting the Greek who said: 'War is bad in that it begets more evil than it kills.'
Immanuel Kant
If man makes himself a worm he must not complain when he is trodden on.
Immanuel Kant
that one was in reference to a larger argument about the worm-ness -from another fellow?- which I forget, but made it rather entertaining to read this quote
Old men, fear me! You will shatter under my ruthless apathetic assault!

"I am convinced that this world is of no importance, and that the only people who care about dates are imbeciles and Spanish teachers." -- Jean Arp, 1921

Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.
Nelson Mandela
I detest racialism, because I regard it as a barbaric thing, whether it comes from a black man or a white man.
Nelson Mandela
I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.
Nelson Mandela
BOO-YAH, Hal Jordan! BATMAN WINS AGAIN!
If the United States of America or Britain is having elections, they don't ask for observers from Africa or from Asia. But when we have elections, they want observers.
Nelson Mandela
It is better to lead from behind and to put others in front, especially when you celebrate victory when nice things occur. You take the front line when there is danger. Then people will appreciate your leadership.
Nelson Mandela

For every prohibition you create you also create an underground.
Jello Biafra
If you love god, burn a church.
Jello Biafra
I'm totally down with insurrection in the street. I've had a great time with that over the years. Insurrection in the voting booth is the other part of the equation.
Jello Biafra
Respecting other people's cultures is well and good, but I draw the line at where some branches of Islam, what they do to women. It's indefensible.
Jello Biafra
You can spend the money on new housing for poor people and the homeless, or you can spend it on a football stadium or a golf course.

or does he? It’s not about being without fear. We’ve made the Green Lantern Corps about overcoming fear. You’re not fearless. You overcome fear. You work through your fear. You’re faced with something that’s hard to face, you’re afraid to tackle an issue you don’t want to tackle, and the best thing you can do is to find the willpower to tackle it, to overcome it. It’s hard to do, but you have to do it. I think that overcoming fear is something all of us have to do. We don’t always succeed, but we have to try.

Civilization is the progress toward a society of privacy. The savage's whole existence is public, ruled by the laws of his tribe. Civilization is the process of setting man free from men.
Ayn Rand
Happiness is that state of consciousness which proceeds from the achievement of one's values.
Ayn Rand
I swear, by my life and my love of it, that I will never live for the sake of another man, nor ask another man to live for mine.
Ayn Rand
The smallest minority on earth is the individual. Those who deny individual rights cannot claim to be defenders of minorities.
Ayn Rand
There are two sides to every issue: one side is right and the other is wrong, but the middle is always evil.
Ayn Rand
There is a level of cowardice lower than that of the conformist: the fashionable non-conformist.

John Buchan:
The task of leadership is not to put greatness into humanity, but to elicit it, for the greatness is already there.
To live for a time close to great minds is the best kind of education.
The true definition of a snob is one who craves for what separates men rather than for what unites them.
Public life is regarded as the crown of a career, and to young men it is the worthiest ambition. Politics is still the greatest and the most honorable adventure.

"There's three kinds of people: dicks, pussies, and assholes. Pussies think everyone can get along, and dicks just want to fuck all the time without thinking it through. But then you got your assholes. And all the assholes want us to shit all over everything! So, pussies may get mad at dicks once in a while, because pussies get fucked by dicks. But dicks also fuck assholes. And if they didn't fuck the assholes, you know what you'd get? You'd get your dick and your pussy all covered in shit"

Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired, signifies in the final sense a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. - Dwight D. Eisenhower
But when you give a feast, invite the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind, and you will be blessed,
because they cannot repay you. You will be repaid at the resurrection of the just. [Luke 14:13 &14.]
"Then he will say to those on his left, 'Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me.' They also will answer, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?' He will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did not do for one of the least among you, you did not do for me.'"
-Matthew 25:41-45

"You always know the mark of a coward. A coward hides behind freedom. A brave person stands in front of freedom and defends it for others."
"Half of life is fucking up - the other half is dealing with it."
"When life hands you a lemon, say "Oh yeah, I like lemons. What else you got?"
