One of Andrew's favorite quotes is:""Όπως έστρωσες θα κοιμηθείς." - Greek Proverb "The artist is nothing without the gift, but the gift is nothing without work." - Emile Zola "In the End, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends." - Martin Luther King Jr. "What we have done for ourselves alone dies with us; what we have done for others and the world remains and is immortal." - Albert Pike "Remembering that I’ll be dead soon is the most important tool I’ve ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything — all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure — these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart." -Steve Jobs "What do our opponents mean when they apply to us the label 'Liberal?' If by 'Liberal' they mean, as they want people to believe, someone who is soft in his policies abroad, who is against local government, and who is unconcerned with the taxpayer’s dollar, then the record of this party and its members demonstrate that we are not that kind of 'Liberal.' But if by a 'Liberal' they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people — their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties — someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a 'Liberal,' then I’m proud to say I’m a 'Liberal.' " - President John F. Kennedy "Of all the enemies to public liberty war is, perhaps, the most to be dreaded because it comprises and develops the germ of every other. War is the parent of armies; from these proceed debts and taxes … known instruments for bringing the many under the domination of the few.… No nation could preserve...Expand for more
its freedom in the midst of continual warfare." - James Madison "Remember to love your neighbor as you love yourself. And if you hate yourself, then please -- just leave your neighbor alone." - Jon Stewart. "Tha palepsoume sti skià." <Then We will Fight in the Shade> - Spartan warrior Dienekes "There are those who look at things the way they are, and ask why. I dream of things that never were, and ask why not?" - Robert Kennedy "We've been warned against offering the people of this Nation false hope. In the unlikely story that is America, there has never been anything false about Hope." - Barack Obama "I'm not a member of any organized political party, I'm a Democrat!" - Will Rogers "The Mind is a Terrible Thing" - Dan Quayle "He who controls the present, controls the past. He who controls the past, controls the future." - George Orwell People who demand perfection from others are incapable of providing it themselves because they lack the humility to learn from their mistakes. A conservative is a man with two perfectly good legs who, however, has never learned to walk forward. -Franklin D. Roosevelt, 1939 “Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children … This is not a way of life at all, in any true sense. Under the cloud of threatening war, it is humanity hanging from a cross of iron.” President, Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1953 Heat not a furnace for your foe so hot that it do singe yourself. - William Shakespeare "I was shown how fragile life was on Saturday. I saw the terror on bystanders’ faces. I saw the victims of a senseless crime. I saw lives change. I was reminded that we don’t know when or where our time on Earth will end. When or where we will breathe our last breath. For one man, it was in the middle of a busy food court on a Saturday evening. I say all the time that every moment we have to live our life is a blessing. So often I have found myself taking it for granted. Every hug from a family member. Every laugh we share with friends. Even the times of solitude are all blessings. Every second of every day is a gift. After Saturday evening, I know I truly understand how blessed I am for each second I am given." - Jessica Ghawi after escaping a shooting in a Toronto mall food court, one month before being killed in the Aurora Colorado theater shooting.".
