Hillary Clinton

16 Mar 2010 In : Quotes of the day

“Don’t confuse having a career with having a life.”
Hillary Clinton quotes

These pools that, though in forests, still reflect
The total sky almost without defect,
And like the flowers beside them, chill and shiver,
Will like the flowers beside them soon be gone,
And yet not out by any brook or river,
But up by roots to bring dark foliage on.
The trees that have it in their pent-up buds
To darken nature and be summer woods –
Let them think twice before they use their powers
To blot out and drink up and sweep away
These flowery waters and these watery flowers
From snow that melted only yesterday.



– Spring Pools by Robert Frost

When the blind lead the blind, no wonder they both fall into — matrimony. -Farquhar, George

  I believe there are more instances of the abridgement of the freedom of the people by gradual and silent encroachments of those in power than by violent and sudden usurpations.
