"Fear can only prevail when victims are..." - Quote by Thomas Jefferson

“Resort is had to ridicule only when reason is against us.”

“While old men feel sensibly enough their own advance in years, they do not sufficiently recollect it in those whom they have seenyoung.”

“No man will labor for himself who can make another labor for him.”

“The same thing could have happened on Halloween if somebody in the neighborhood had jumped out and scared him.”

“As a Buddhist, I view death as a normal process, a reality that I accept will occur as long as I remain in this earthly existence. Knowing that I cannot escape it, I see no point in worrying about it. I tend to think of death as being like changing your clothes when they are old and worn out, rather than as some final end. Yet death is unpredictable: We do not know when or how it will take place. So it is only sensible to take certain precautions before it actually happens.”

“When fear is excessive it can make many a man despair.”

“I have always been of opinion that a man who desires to get married should know either everything or nothing.”

“If he who does not know kept silent, discord would cease.”

“Not to know what happened before means to remain forever a child.”
