To give pleasure to a single heart by a single act is better than a thousand heads bowing in prayer.
Mahatma Gandhi

Adam Arkin
We are a people who do not want to keep much of the past in our heads. It is considered unhealthy in America to remember mistakes, neurotic to think about them, psychotic to dwell on them.
Lillian Hellman
We are like horses who hurt themselves as soon as they pull on their bits - and we bow our heads. We even lose consciousness of the situation, we just submit. Any re-awakening of thought is then painful.
Simone Weil

George Farquhar
We have a choice - we can both think and feel, using our heads and our hearts.
