Pericles

Freedom is the sure possession of those alone who have the courage to defend it.

Just because you do not take an interest in politics doesn't mean politics won't take an interest in you.

Having knowledge but lacking the power to express it clearly is no better than never having any ideas at all.

It took me realizing that a broken heart has never actually killed anyone to find the courage to ask for what I want, in just about every situation. That was part of my own growing up.

Power is not only what you have but what the enemy thinks you have.

All commend patience, but none can endure to suffer.
