“It is not enough that France should be regarded as a country which enjoys the remains of a freedom acquired long ago. If she is still to count in the world—and if she does not intend to, she may as well perish—she must be seen by her own citizens and by all men as an ever-flowing source of liberty. There must not be a single genuine lover of freedom in the whole world who can have a valid reason for hating France.”
—Simone Weil (1909–1943)
“Mr. Christian, it is about time for many people to begin to come to the White House to discuss different phases of the coal strike.

In no event bring him to me.”
—Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)

—Katharine Whitehorn (b. 1926)
“The limits of prudence: one cannot jump out of a burning building gradually.”
