—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Politics is not the art of the possible. It consists in choosing between the disastrous and the unpalatable.”
—John Kenneth Galbraith (b. 1908)
“You will never be happy if you continue to search for what happiness consists of. You will never live if you are looking for the meaning of life.”
—Albert Camus (1913–1960)
