-- David McCullough

“I'll break your chains; so sing, Takuto. As loud and as much as you want. You don't have to hold back anything.”
“I was going to go to church, but I decided to get doughnuts instead.”
“A beautiful soul has no other merit than its own existence.”
“Democracy is our most valuable possession. Upholding it is our duty and our responsibility. This means a continuous, decisive and self-confident argument; it means effort and endeavor to reach compromise and long-lasting consensus. These form the cornerstones of the only form of political system that can guarantee freedom.”
“Money and fame made me believe I was entitled. I was wrong and foolish.”
“Most men judge your importance in their lives by how much you can hurt them.”
“But my body was like a harp and her words and gestures were like fingers running upon the wires.”
“If you are anxious about death, then you don't have a sense of the oneness of things-you feel that after death, you will be no more.”
