I have been obliged to crop even the seconds -- for who can trust to tomorrow?~ Lord Byron Who would be free themselves must strike the blow.~ Lord Byron Hereditary bondsmen! Know ye not Who would be free themselves must strike the blow?~ Lord Byron When we regard a man as morally responsible for an act, we regard him as a legitimate object of moral praise or blame in respect of it. But it seems plain that a man cannot be a legitimate object of moral praise or blame for an act unless in willing the act he is in some important sense a ‘free’ agent. Evidently free will in some sense, therefore, is a precondition of moral responsibility.~ C. Arthur Campbell The aim of art, the aim of a life, can only be to increase the sum of freedom and responsibility to be found in every man and in the world. It cannot, under any circumstances, be to reduce or suppress that freedom, even temporarily.~ Albert Camus Integrity has no need of rules.~ Albert Camus Freedom is not a gift received from the State or leader, but a possession to be won every day by the effort of each and the union of all.~ Albert Camus Freedom is not a reward or a decoration that is celebrated with champagne...Oh no! It's a...long distance race, quite solitary and very exhausting.~ Albert Camus All honor's wounds are self-inflicted.~ Andrew Carnegie I choose free libraries as the best agencies for improving the masses of the people, because they give nothing for nothing. They only help those who help themselves. They never pauperize. They reach the aspiring and open to these chief treasures of the world -- those stored up in books. A taste for reading drives out lower tastes.~ Andrew Carnegie Any fool can criticize, condemn and complain -- and most fools do.~ Dale Carnegie I was taught when I was a young reporter that it's news when we say it is. I think that's still true -- it's news when 'we' say it is. It's just who 'we' is has changed. Members of the public, people with modems, people with cell phones are now producers, editors. They can push and push and push on a story until it ends up being acknowledged by everyone.~ David Carr My mother worked as a domestic, two, sometimes three jobs at a time because she didn’t want to be on welfare. She felt very strongly that if she gave up and went on welfare, that she would give up control of her life and of our lives, and I think she was probably correct about that. … But, one thing that she provided us was a tremendous example of what hard work is like.~ Dr. Ben Carson Previous 20 quotes Next 20 quotes Share on Facebook Tweet Email Print
