People who want a cure, provided they can have it without pain, are like those who favour progress, provided they can have it without change.

Anthony de Mello

Most of nature is inherently chaotic. It's not rigidly determined in the old sense. It's not rigidly predictable.

Rupert Sheldrake

I'm not in favour of a regulation-free world. I align myself with Teddy Roosevelt, who broke up the trusts. Regulation is necessary, but it should be in favour of the consumer, the citizen, and freedom.

Garry Kasparov

When you are present, your mind is silent. Free of opinions, concepts and beliefs and free of projections from the past and anxiety about the future, it is a perfectly clear instrument of expression. And the expression comes from the center of your Being.

Leonard Jacobson

Above all, every member of the university has an obligation to permit free expression in the university. No member has a right to prevent such expression. Every official of the university, moreover, has a special obligation to foster free expression and to ensure that it is not obstructed.

C. Vann Woodward

Freedom is the quality of being free from the control of regulators and tax collectors. If I want to be free their control, I must not impose controls on others.

Hans F. Sennholz

I always just had a dream to spend more time with my father. But at the end of the day, my mom was the one who kept me in soccer,who kept me doing my homework, who provided me with meals on a daily basis.

Hope Solo

Play is the highest expression of human development in childhood for it alone is the free expression of what is in a child's soul.

Friedrich Frobel

Free speech is essential to education, especially to a liberal education, which encourages the search for truths in art and science. If expression is restricted, the range of inquiry is also curtailed... The beneficiaries of a free society have a duty to pursue the truth and to protect the freedom of expression that makes possible the search for a new enlightenment.

Norman Dorsen

There is no use in deceiving ourselves. American public opinion rejects the market economy, the capitalistic free enterprise system that provided the nation with the highest standard of living ever attained. Full government control of all activities of the individual is virtually the goal of both national parties.

Ludwig von Mises

Only the truth and its expression can establish that new public opinion which will reform the ancient obsolete and pernicious order of life; and yet we not only do not express the truth we know, but often even distinctly give expression to what we ourselves regard as false. If only free men would not rely on that which has no power, and is always fettered upon external aids; but would trust in that which is always powerful and free the truth and its expression!

Leo Tolstoy

I am in favour of migration; I simply want to control the numbers.

Michael Gove

I'm here now because of my faith. That's what got me singing and what has kept me singing. That is what I have: what has kept me doing right and has provided me with the chances and the attitude and the skills to do this.

Aaron Neville

I despise Birth-Control first because it is ... an entirely meaningless word; and is used so as to curry favour even with those who would first recoil from its real meaning. The proceeding these quack doctors recommend does not control any birth.

Gilbert K. Chesterton

Look I'm in favour of free movement of labour but not free movement of benefits; people who come here should come to work and that is extremely important that that is dealt with.

Liz Kendall

Did you ever notice that everyone in favour of birth control has already been born ?

Benny Hill
