Plato

Man is still the most extraordinary computer of all.

John F. Kennedy

I believe marriage is between a man and a woman. I am not in favor of gay marriage. But when you start playing around with constitutions, just to prohibit somebody who cares about another person, it just seems to me that's not what America's about.

Barack Obama

Johnny Cash

Listen to the cry of a woman in labor at the hour of giving birth — look at the dying man's struggle at his last extremity, and then tell me whether something that begins and ends thus could be intended for enjoyment.

Soren Kierkegaard

Behavior is what a man does, not what he thinks, feels, or believes.

Emily Dickinson
