What do we live for if not to make life less difficult for each other?

– George EliotRate it:

What do we mean when we say that first of all we seek liberty? I often wonder whether we do not rest our hopes too much upon constitutions, upon laws and upon courts. These are false hopes; believe me, these are false hopes. Liberty lies in the hearts of men and women; when it dies there, no constitution, no law, no court can save it; no constitution, no law, no court can even do much to help it… What is this liberty that must lie in the hearts of men and women? It is not the ruthless, the unbridled will; it is not the freedom to do as one likes. That is the denial of liberty and leads straight to its overthrow. A society in which men recognize no check on their freedom soon becomes a society where freedom is the possession of only a savage few -- as we have learned to our sorrow. What then is the spirit of liberty? I cannot define it; I can only tell you my own faith. The spirit of liberty is the spirit which is not too sure that it is right; the spirit of liberty is the spirit which seeks to understand the minds of other men and women; the spirit of liberty is the spirit which weighs their interests alongside its own without bias...

– Learned HandRate it:

What do you believe is worse? Living life alone, lacking in popularity or changing yourself to be accepted by others? I think the latter is worse, and I believe it is much more important to think for yourself than to allow others to control you with their opinions. I think it’s a sign of weakness to allow others to think for you just to be accepted.

– Chaim PotokRate it:

What does it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and yet loses his soul?

– Jesus Christ, Matthew 16:26Rate it:

What does lasting value mean in a society that is only interested in immediate results? How should we judge a community that simply takes short term projects in account and merely looks at a short-sighted horizon? In point of fact, a clear vision goes beyond a misty horizon. Through its mental dimension, the quality of vision stands out to the sheer physical, geographical or time-based horizon. ("Horizon and Vision" )

– Erik PevernagieRate it:

What does mean a journalist? In my view, a journalist, who has not any improper, wrong and favouring connections with any party, groups or religious schools of thought; he, who just writes the facts and realities regardless caste, creed, and colour, and the personal interests. He, who respects every person as a human with dignity and honour; he, who is not a tool of the masterminds. The journalistic principle is only “fairness with morality.” A real journalist is more than the holy person because of that person, maybe anyone of any particular religion, but a journalist is for all the humans; he who has not such qualities, can be everything, but not a journalist.
