"A bad beginning makes a bad ending."
Euripides
"A bad book about the love of God remains a bad book."
Thomas Merton
"A good man can be stupid and still be good. But a bad man must have brains."
Maxim Gorky
"A good novel tells you the truth about its hero; but a bad novel tells you the truth about its author."
Gilbert Keith Chesterton
"A great NOW will be a great WAS! A bad NOW will always be a bad WAS, and all you can hope for is a Great GONNA BE!"
Sid Ceaser
"A group of politicians deciding to dump a President because his morals are bad is like the Mafia getting together to bump off the Godfather for not going to church on Sunday."
Russell Wayne Baker
"A little girl can be sweeter (and badder) oftener than anyone else in the world. She can jitter around, and stomp, and make funny noises that frazzle your nerves, yet just when you open your mouth she stands there demure with that special look in her eyes. A girl is Innocence playing in the mud, Beauty standing on its head, and Motherhood dragging a doll by the foot."
Alan Marshall Beck
"A man cannot do good before he is made good."
Martin Luther
"A plane is a bad place for an all-out sleep, but a good place to begin rest and recovery from the trip to the faraway places you've been, a decompression chamber between Here and There. Though a plane is not the ideal place really to think, to reassess or reevaluate things, it is a great place to have the illusion of doing so, and often the illusion will suffice."
Shana Alexander
"A resolution to avoid an evil is seldom framed till the evil is so far advanced as to make avoidance impossible."
Thomas Hardy
"A thing is not necessarily true because badly uttered, nor false because spoken magnificently."
Saint Augustine
"All that is necessary for the forces of evil to win in the world is for enough good men to do nothing."
Edmund Burke
"Always behave like a duck -- keep calm and unruffled on the surface but paddle like the devil underneath."
Jacob M(orton) Braude
"An act of goodness is of itself an act of happiness. No reward coming after the event can compare with the sweet reward that went with it."
Count Maurice Maeterlink
"Art is one of the means whereby man seeks to redeem a life which is experienced as chaotic, senseless, and largely evil."
Aldous Leonard Huxley
"As an atheist you have to rationalize things... Then you have to try and make some sort of sense out of your problems. And if you try and find you can't, you have no choice but to be good and scared -- but that's okay!"
Billy Joel
"As I rejected amnesty, so I reject revenge. I ask all Americans who ever asked for goodness and mercy in their lives, who ever sought forgiveness for their trespasses, to join in rehabilitating all the casualties of the tragic conflict of the past." (On Americans who avoided conscription during the Vietnam War, to Veterans of Foreign Wars)"
Gerald R. Ford
"As long as we think we can save ourselves by our own will power, we will only make the evil in us stronger than ever."
Heini Arnold
"Bad officials are elected by good citizens who do not vote."
George Jean Nathan
"Bad times have a scientific value. These are occasions a good learner would not miss."
Ralph Waldo Emerson
