a question is embarrassing for a moment, but not asking is embarrassing for a lifetime.

There are moments when all anxiety and stated toil are becalmed in the infinite leisure and repose of nature.

Man is free at the moment he wishes to be.

Life must have its sacred moments and its holy places. We need the infinite, the limitless, the uttermost -- all that can give the heart a deep and strengthening peace.

Life has no meaning, the moment you lose the illusion of being eternal.

Everyone here has the sense that right now is one of those moments when we are influencing the future.

But there are certain meanings that are lost forever the moment they are explained in words.

At the moment that we persuade a child, any child, to cross that threshold, that magic threshold into a library, we change their lives forever, for the better.
