With the author

Reputation is what men and women think of us; character is what God and angels know of us.

Thomas Paine

Of all the tyrannies that affect mankind, tyranny in religion is the worst.

Thomas Paine

To establish any mode to abolish war, however advantageous it might be to Nations, would be to take from such Government the most lucrative of its branches.

Thomas Paine

An army of principles can penetrate where an army of soldiers cannot.

Thomas Paine

War involves in its progress such a train of unforeseen circumstances that no human wisdom can calculate the end; it has but one thing certain, and that is to increase taxes.

Thomas Paine

Government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil; in its worst state, an intolerable one.

Thomas Paine

Every science has for its basis a system of principles as fixed and unalterable as those by which the universe is regulated and governed. Man cannot make principles; he can only discover them.

Thomas Paine

It is error only, and not truth, that shrinks from inquiry.

Thomas Paine

Same category

Businesses have moved from doing business to doing lobbying, and I think that's a very bad thing.

Angus Deaton

A bankruptcy judge can fix your balance sheet, but he cannot fix your company.

Gordon Bethune

We didn't know how to run a business, but we had dreams and talent.

Ruth Handler

A government of, by and for the people is obligated to conduct the nation's business in a manner that respects dissent.

Jim Leach

I used to be and I still am into psychology. I would like to be able to pursue something like that, but I don't know. The older I've gotten, the more endearing this business has become and I can't really imagine leaving it.

Lindsey Shaw

We all have a choice. We can create transformational action that will safeguard the living conditions for future generations. Or we can continue with our business as usual and fail.

Greta Thunburg

It's easy to make a buck. It's a lot tougher to make a difference.

Tom Brokaw

I have drawn my whole life. My parents were in the tapestry restoration business, and as a young girl, I would draw in the missing parts of the tapestry that needed to be rewoven.
