«In the End, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends.»
«It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.»
«I am not only a pacifist but a militant pacifist. I am willing to fight for peace. Nothing will end war unless the people themselves refuse to go to war.»
«I do think it's a big mistake to assume that creating this new big department is the be-all and end-all in home defense. . . . It may do more good than harm. But it is not all that can be done.»
«Not every end is the goal. The end of a melody is not its goal, and yet if a melody has not reached its end, it has not reached its goal. A parable.»
«When a love comes to an end, weaklings cry, efficient ones instantly find another love, and the wise already have one in reserve.»
«When one is in love, one always begins by deceiving one's self, and one always ends by deceiving others. That is what world calls a romance.»
«The good ended happily, and the bad unhappily. That is what Fiction means.»
