Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.
You can't depend on your eyes when your imagination is out of focus. Kindness is the language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see. The secret of getting ahead is getting started. The best way to cheer yourself is to try to cheer someone else up. Truth is stranger than fiction, but it is because fiction is obliged to stick to possibilities; truth isn't. The trouble is not in dying for a friend, but in finding a friend worth dying for. I have never let my schooling interfere with my education. The man who does not read has no advantage over the man who cannot read. A lie can travel halfway around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes. It could probably be shown by facts and figures that there is no distinctly native American criminal class except Congress. |
