You can't say history teaches us this or that; it gives us more questions than answers, and many answers to every question.

Amin Maalouf

Today, we come together to confess our need of God. Those perpetrators who took us on to tear us apart, it has worked the other way. It has backfired; it has brought us together.

Billy Graham

Information can tell us everything. It has all the answers. But they are answers to questions we have not asked, and which doubtless don't even arise.

Jean Baudrillard

I think about the poet Rainer Maria Rilke who said that it's the questions that move us, not the answers. As a writer, I believe that it's our task, our responsibility, to hold the mirror up to social injustices that we see and to create a prayer of beauty. The questions serve us in that capacity.

Terry Tempest Williams

What shames us, what we most fear to tell, does not set us apart from others; it binds us together if only we can take the risk to speak it.

Starhawk

We do not ask the right questions when we are young, so we miss the important answers. Now it is too late to ask, too late for the illuminating answers, and the unanswered questions haunt us for a lifetime.

In every generation, politicians let us down, but music can lift us above the fighting and the mistakes. It does not offer answers to specific political questions. Instead, it looks beyond them.

Stephen Hough

There're a lot of old religious beliefs that keep us stuck. Because we're afraid of the answers, a lot of us just don't ask the questions of God.

Echo Bodine

We have a stake in one another...what binds us together is greater than what drives us apart.

Barack Obama

I have always believed that what brings us together is stronger than what pulls us apart.

Barack Obama

The Lord gives us friends to push us to our potential — and enemies to push us beyond it.

Robert Breault

The ideals that bind us together are as old as our nation, but so are the forces that pull us apart.

William J. Clinton

All answers are only found in the super-conscious. It takes us to a point where we don't ask questions anymore because that part of us which would ask goes away.

Frederick Lenz

It's not the questions that get us in trouble - it's the answers.
