I should be proud to have my memory graced, but only if the monument be placed... here, where I endured three hundred hours in line before the implacable iron bars.

Courage: Great Russian word, fit for the songs of our children's children, pure on their tongues, and free.

Who will grieve for this woman? Does she not seem too insignificant for our concern? Yet in my heart I never will deny her, Who suffered death because she chose to turn.

All has been looted, betrayed, sold; black death's wing flashed ahead.

Courageous people do not fear forgiving, for the sake of peace.

Universal peace sounds ridiculous to the head of an average family.

Today, I am blessed to be living a dream. And yet, if it all went away tomorrow, I know I would still have peace.

Happiness is a byproduct of function, purpose, and conflict; those who seek happiness for itself seek victory without war.
