"Government is an association of men who do violence to the rest of us." ― Leo Tolstoy Topic(s): Death More From Leo Tolstoy "The changes in our life must come from the impossibility to live otherwise than according to the demands of our conscience not from our mental resolution to try a new form of life." "True life is lived when tiny changes occur." "If so many men, so many minds, certainly so many hearts, so many kinds of love." More In Death "The compact which exists between the North and the South is a covenant with death and an agreement with hell."― William Lloyd Garrison "A lot of times people’s main motives and plan in life is to hurt as many people as they can, but I think there’s enough good people that help make the world a good place."― Tina Yothers "I think that when something happens when you’re growing up, like a death or divorce, it does open the world slightly because things aren’t as straightforward."― Felicity Jones
