Quotations by unknown authors As human beings, we are endowed with freedom of choice, and we cannot shuffle off our responsibility upon the shoulders of God or nature. We must shoulder it ourselves. It is up to us. A. J. Toynbee Man is condemned to be free; because once thrown into the world, he is responsible for everything he does. Jean-Paul Sartre
French author & existentialist philosopher (1905 - 1980) We have forty million reasons for failure, but not a single excuse. Rudyard Kipling
British (Indian-born) author (1865 - 1936) Much misconstruction and bitterness are spared to him who thinks naturally upon what he owes to others rather than what he ought to expect from them. Madame Guizot Sin with the multitude, and your responsibility and guilt are as great and as truly personal, as if you alone had done the wrong.

Mole A good intention but fixed and resolute - bent on high and holy ends, we shall find means to them on every side and at every moment; and even obstacles and opposition will but make us "like the fabled specter-ships," which sail the fastest in the very teeth of the wind. Ralph Waldo Emerson
