We strive as hard to hide our hearts from ourselves as from others, and always with more success for in deciding upon our own case we are both judge, jury, and executioner, and where sophistry cannot overcome the first, or flattery the second, self-love is always ready to defeat the sentence by bribing the third.
Charles Caleb Colton
Image
You cannot have man legislating and playing God in Parliament, and at the same time believe that Allah is the only legislator.
Anjem Choudary
Image
Peace is only possible if men cease to place their happiness in the possession of things which cannot be shared, and if they raise themselves to a point where they adopt an abstract principle superior to their egotisms. In other words, it can only be obtained by a betterment of human morality.
Julien Benda

Now, one cannot read nonsense with impunity.
Victor Hugo
Image
The amount of love, kindness, patience I have for others is is directly proportional to how much love I have for myself, because we cannot give others what we ourselves do not have. And, unsurprisingly, the amount of love, respect, support, and compassion I receive from others is also in direct proportion to how much I love myself.

In winter there is no heat, no light, no noon, evening touches morning, there is fog, and mist, the window is frosted, and you cannot see clearly. The sky is but the mouth of a cave. The whole day is the cave.... Frightful season! Winter changes into stone the water of heaven and the heart of man.
Victor Hugo

In reading Chesterton, as in reading MacDonald, I did not know what I was letting myself in for. A young man who wishes to remain a sound Atheist cannot be too careful of his reading. There are traps everywhere — Bibles laid open, millions of surprises, as Herbert says, fine nets and stratagems. God is, if I may say it, very unscrupulous.
C. S. Lewis
Image
A political party cannot be all things to all people. It must represent certain fundamental beliefs which must not be compromised to political expediency, or simply to swell its numbers.
Ronald Reagan

Homosexuals cannot reproduce-so they must recruit ... and to freshen their ranks they must recruit the youth of America.
Anita Bryant

One can resist the invasion of an army but one cannot resist the invasion of ideas.
Victor Hugo
Image
The people themselves are not a homogeneous cultural collectivity but present numerous and variously combined cultural stratifications which, in their pure form, cannot always be identified within specific historical popular collectivities.
Antonio Gramsci
Image
There is no movement in the golf swing so difficult that it cannot be made even more difficult by careful study and diligent practice.
Tom Mulligan
Image
We cannot control what others choose to do, and so we cannot force our children to heaven, but we can determine what we will do. And we can decide that we will do all we can to bring down the powers of heaven into that family we want so much to have forever.
Henry B. Eyring
Image
An American in London...cannot but be impressed and charmed by the city. The momumentality of Washington, the thriving business of New York, the antique intimacy of Boston, plus a certain spacious and open feeling reminiscent of Denver and San Francisco-all these he finds combined for his pleasure.
John Updike
Image
It is a sin to regard the fact that God cannot do the impossible as a limitation on his powers.
Thomas Aquinas
Image
Science chases money, and money chases its tail, and the best minds of my generation cannot make bail.

Nobody will tell me what I can or I cannot do.
Victoria Azarenka

Patterns drawn in ultraviolet might make those ordinary little petals into the exotic peacocks of the botanical world, and yet we cannot appreciate them.
Victoria Finlay
Image
We cannot anticipate the moral circumstances under which we will live. And therefore [I refuse] to say that I will not live in a moral circumstance that requires violence.
George Friedman
Image
I am like God and God like me. I am as large as God. He is as small as I. He cannot above me nor I beneath him be.
Angelus Silesius
Image
The universal and absolute law is that natural justice which cannot be written down, but which appeals to the hearts of all.
Victor Cousin
Image
You cannot be defined by your skin color, where you come from. The world is yours, embrace it.
Angelique Kidjo
Image
We cannot hurt ourselves just for the sake of it. When you hurt somebody you hurt yourself. Down the line, the ripple of it comes back to you.
