"Will we act upon life, or will we merely be acted upon?"

-- Stephen Covey

“For all the cruelty and hardship of our world, we are not mere prisoners of fate. Our actions matter, and can bend history in the direction of justice.”
“A woman is beautiful when she stands out as an individualâ€”it's a woman who has her own style and the confidence to pull it off. Half the women on the streets in New York City achieve this. I get so inspired every time I'm there.”
“Yours for the unshackled exercise of every faculty by every human being.”
“I read my Bible and I pray and all of that. I really do. But at the same time, I dont think being gay is a sin. Period.”
“Darkness is only light's absence.”

“I was watching the Blackburn game on TV on Sunday when it flashed on the screen that George (Ndah) had scored in the first minute at Birmingham. My first reaction was to ring him up. Then I remembered he was out there playing.”
“Luckily, I'm not afraid to make a fool of myself.”
“The arrival of the Barbary pirates radically changed English attitudes. Instead of patriotic pirates plundering foreign cargoes and bringing them homes to enrich their countrymen, the 'Turks' were in the usual Mediterranean business of slave-raiding - and now the English were the victims. The West Country men suffered the heaviest, and did not appreciate the irony. The Newfoundland fishery, dominated by Devon ports, lost at least 20 ships in 1611 alone.”
