    “Sometimes, immersed in his books, there would come to him
    the awareness of all that he did not know, of all that he had not read;
    and the serenity for which he labored was shattered as he realized the
    little time he had in life to read so much, to learn what he had to know.”

    From Darren Shan's Cirque Du Freak, Steve "Leopard" Leonard's last words:

    "and when I finish with your toes and fingers, I'll move on to your nose and ears!" Steve yelled. "But
    first I'll cut your eyelids off, so you can see everything that I'm gonna do. After that I'll"
    "Steve," I wheezed, stopping him midflow. "Want to know the secret of winning a fight like this? Less
    talking ? more stabbing." [...] Steve's gaze slid to the handle of the knife sticking out of his chest. "Oh," he said tonelessly.

    That is a long, long list.

    "Forgive your enemies, but never forget their names." - John F. Kennedy

    "Courage is the complement of fear. A fearless man cannot be courageous. He is also a fool." - Robert A. Heinlein, from the notebook of Lazerus Long.

    "Sell not virtue to purchase wealth, nor liberty to purchase power." - Benjamin Franklin, Poor Richard's Almanac, 1738

    "Fairy tales do not tell children the dragons exist. Children already know that dragons exist. Fairy tales tell children the dragons can be killed." - G. K. Chesterton

    "To think that because those who wield power in society wield in the end that of government, therefore it is of no use to attempt to influence the constitution of the government by acting on opinion, is to forget that opinion is itself one of the greatest active social forces. One person with a belief is a social power equal to ninety-nine who have only interests." - John Stuart Mill, On Representative Government

    "Live free or die: Death is not the worst of evils." - General John Stark

    "The only freedom which deserves the name, is that of pursuing our own good in our own way, so long as we do not attempt to deprive others of theirs, or impede their efforts to obtain it." - John Stuart Mill, On Liberty

    "War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself." - John Stuart Mill, On Liberty

    "No one can be a great thinker who does not recognize that as a thinker it is his first duty to follow his intellect to whatever conclusions it may lead. Truth gains more even by the errors of one who, with due study, and preparation, thinks for himself, than by the true opinions of those who only hold them because they do not suffer themselves to think." - John Stuart Mill, On Liberty

    "We may indeed in counsel point to the higher road, but we cannot compel any free creature to walk upon it. That leadeth to tyranny, which disfigureth good and maketh it seem hateful." - Morgoth's Ring, J.R.R. Tolkien

    "The attempt to silence a man is the greatest honor you can bestow on him. It means you recognize his superiority to yourself." - Joseph Sobran

    "The driving is like that of Jehu, son of Nimshi — He drives like a madman." - 2 Kings 9:20

    "A fortress circumvented ceases to be an obstacle. A fortress destroyed ceases to be a threat. Do not forget the difference." - Attributed to Leman Russ, primarch of the Space Wolves.

    "There is no act, however virtuous, for which ingenuity may not find some bad motive." - Thomas Jefferson, letter to Edward Dowse, 1803.

    "Whenever I hear anyone arguing for slavery I feel a strong impulse to see it tried on him personally." - Abraham Lincoln

    "For every action there is an equal and opposite government program." - Bob Wells

    "Anyone who clings to the historically untrue — and thoroughly immoral — doctrine that 'violence never solves anything' I would advise to conjure up the ghosts of Napoleon Bonaparte and of the Duke of Wellington and let them debate it. The ghost of Hitler could referee, and the jury might well be the Dodo, the Great Auk, and the Passenger Pigeon. Violence, naked force, has settled more issues in history than has any other factor, and the contrary opinion is wishful thinking at its worst. Breeds that forget this basic truth have always paid for it with their lives and freedoms." - Robert A. Heinlein, "Starship Troopers"

    "The whole point of free expression is not to make ideas exempt from criticism but to expose them to it." - Garry Wills

    "Never offend people with style when you can offend them with substance." - Sam Brown

    "Pacifism is a shifty doctrine under which a man accepts the benefits of the social group without being willing to pay - and claims a halo for his dishonesty." — Robert A. Heinlein

    "Anyone who considers protocol unimportant has never dealt with a cat." - Robert A. Heinlein

    "To fight and conquer in all our battles is not supreme excellence; supreme excellence consists in breaking the enemy's resistance without fighting." - Sun Tzu

    Need I go on?
    "Courage is the complement of fear. A fearless man cannot be courageous. He is also a fool." -- Robert Heinlein

    "Station is the paradox of the world of my people, the limitation of our power within the hunger for power. It is gained through treachery and invites treachery against those who gain it . Those most powerful in Menzoberranzan spend there days watching over there shoulders, defending against the daggers that would find there backs. There deaths usually come from the front"
