A hero is someone we can admire without apology.
Kitty Kelley
A jealous lover of human liberty, deeming it the absolute condition of all that we admire and respect in humanity, I reverse the phrase of Voltaire, and say that, if God really existed, it would be necessary to abolish him.
Mikhail Bakunin
A man likes his wife to be just clever enough to appreciate his cleverness, and just stupid enough to admire it.
