..."you do not get the point. There is a Remnant there that you know nothing about. They are obscure, unorganized, inarticulate, each one rubbing along as best he can. They need to be encouraged and braced up because when everything has gone completely to the dogs, they are the ones who will come back and build up a new society; and meanwhile, your preaching will reassure them and keep them hanging on. Your job is to take care of the Remnant, so be off now and set about it."
A little long I suppose, but I like Isaiah's Job.

“I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”

“Don't ever become a pessimist, Ira; a pessimist is correct oftener than an optimist, but an optimist has more fun--and neither can stop the march of events.”
“I am free because I know that I alone am morally responsible for everything I do. I am free, no matter what rules surround me. If I find them tolerable, I tolerate them; if I find them too obnoxious, I break them. I am free because I know that I alone am morally responsible for everything I do.”
“May you live as long as you wish and love as long as you live.”
“Everything is theoretically impossible, until it is done.”
“Mighty little force is needed to control a man whose mind has been hoodwinked; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free man, a man whose mind is free. No, not the rack, not fission bombs, not anything - you can't conquer a free man; the most you can do is kill him.”
“Courage is the complement of fear. A man who is fearless cannot be courageous. [He is also a fool.]”
“One of the sanest, surest, and most generous joys of life comes from being happy over the good fortune of others.”
“The price of freedom is the willingness to do sudden battle anywhere, any time and with utter recklessness.”
“The best things in history are accomplished by people who get tired of being shoved around.”
“when faced with a problem you do not understand, do any part of it you do understand, then look at it again.”
“Secrecy is the beginning of tyranny”
“My old man says when it's time to be counted, the important thing is to be man enough to stand up.”

"It is not despair, despair is only for those who see the end beyond all doubt. We do not."
"The sun went down beyond the sea, but day will come again"
"Success awaits those who steadfastly commit to any requisite sacrifice"
"Know how many times I've heard that? 'Rest in peace kiwi', 'Time to die kiwi' every damn night, and yet. I'm still here."

Book of Pslam
23 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.
Remember friends, only with God can you be able to stand firm in truth and goodness because the Lord will provide and the Lord will defeat all evil and sin in the end of time.

“Moderate strength is shown in violence, supreme strength is shown in levity.”
“Always be comic in a tragedy”
“Listen to me," cried Syme with extraordinary emphasis. "Shall I tell you the secret of the whole world? It is that we have only known the back of the world. We see everything from behind, and it looks brutal. That is not a tree, but the back of a tree. That is not a cloud, but the back of a cloud. Cannot you see that everything is stooping and hiding a face? If we could only get round in front”

"In a time of deceit telling the truth is a revolutionary act."
"If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear."
"Being in a minority, even a minority of one, did not make you mad.
There was truth and there was untruth,
and if you clung to the truth even against the whole world, you were not mad."
