"History: a collection of epitaphs...." - Quote by Elbert Hubbard

“A college degree does not lessen the length of your ears; it only conceals it.”

“A little more persistence, a little more effort, and what seemed hopeless failure may turn to glorious success.”

“If you work for a man, in Heavens name work for him! If he pays you wages that supply your bread and butter, work for him, stand by him, and stand by the institution he represents.”

“The Indian is but a sketch in red crayon of a rudimental manhood. To the problem of his relation to the white race, there is one solution: extermination.”

“Most of the songs came from Europe and Africa and now they were coming back to us. Many of [Bob] Dylan's best songs came from Scotland, Ireland or England. It was a sort of cultural exchange.”

“The error of those who reason by precedents drawn from antiquity, respecting the rights of man, is that they do not go far enough into antiquity.”

“Many more will have to suffer, many more will have to die , don't ask me why !”

“All who suffer are full of hatred; all who live drag a remorse: the dead alone have broken their chains.”

“A culture that denies death inevitably becomes shallow and superficial, concerned only with the external form of things. When death is denied, life loses its depth.”
