More quotes by John Millington Synge
Even when you're making a movie about life, death is a presence, and I guess it's part of my dramatic viewpoint. I'm not sure why exactly. Maybe I'm drawn to it as a story element.
– Gus Van Sant

– William Hazlitt

More quotes by Lascelles Abercrombie
Environmental concern is now firmly embedded in public life: in education, medicine and law in journalism, literature and art.
– Barry Commoner
More quotes by Barry Commoner
Environmental concern is a little like dieting or paying off credit-card debt - an episodically terrific idea that burns brightly and then seems to fade when we realize there's a reason we need to diet or pay down our debt. The reason is that it's really, really hard, and too many of us in too many spheres of life choose the easy over the hard.

– Bev Perdue
More quotes by Bev Perdue

– Louis E. Boone
More quotes by Louis E. Boone
Don't ever know who you may meet, or just because a person may not be dressed up all fancy, don't mean they're not an important person. You just don't ever know who you're gonna meet in life. So that's why I look at everybody as equal. Can't just judge. I treat everybody with respect. Every man.

– Henry Miller
More quotes by Henry Miller
Despite the fact that in America we incarcerate more juveniles for life terms than in any other country in the world, the truth is that the vast majority of youth offenders will one day be released. The question is simple and stark. Do we want to help them change or do we want to help them become even more violent and dangerous?

– Charlotte Perkins Gilman
More quotes by Charlotte Perkins Gilman

– Angie Stone
More quotes by Angie Stone
Clinton is a big personality who has led a big life, and for some of the media conventional wisdom to boil it down to a view that 'all people are really interested in' are a few moments of madness in the Oval Office gets him, the importance of the presidency, and the significance of his life, all wrong.

China has not established the rule of law and if there is a power above the law there is no social justice. Everybody can be subjected to harm. I'm just a citizen: my life is equal in value to any other. But I'm thankful that when I lost my freedom so many people shared feelings and put such touching effort into helping me.
– Ai Weiwei
More quotes by Ai Weiwei
