Victor Hugo Quotes, Cities Quotes, Two Quotes

We have learned that terrorist attacks are not caused by the use of strength; they are invited by the perception of weakness. And the surest way to avoid attacks on our own people is to engage the enemy where he lives and plans. We are fighting that enemy in Iraq and Afghanistan today so that we do not meet him again on our own streets, in our own cities.

A very awkward situation occurs often in New York City when you are walking down a relatively empty sidewalk and there happens to be a person walking right next to you in the same direction as you at the exact same pace as you.

Through me you pass into the city of woe: Through me you pass into eternal pain: Through me among the people lost for aye.

Before me things create were none, save things Eternal, and eternal I shall endure. All hope abandon, ye who enter here.
