Safety lies in tending towards our highest and not in resting content with an inferior potentiality.....

Multitudes of people, drifting aimlessly to and fro without a set purpose, deny themselves such fulfillment of their capacities, and the satisfying happiness which attends it. They are not wicked, they are only shallow. They are not mean or vicious; they simply are empty -- shake them and they would rattle like gourds. They lack range, depth, and conviction.

As we harness our abilities to a steady purpose and undertake the long pull toward its accomplishment, rich compensations reward us. A sense of purpose simplifies life and therefore concentrates our abilities; and concentration adds power. — Kenneth Hildebrand

This intellectual morass is very dangerous, it seems to me. A form of censorship. — Edward Albee

Which is so sad, in retrospect, because of course no one cared. — Kate Christensen
