I have no faith in human perfectability. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active - not more happy - nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago. - Edgar Allan Poe

The reason death sticks so closely to life isn't biological necessity—it's envy. Life is so beautiful that death has fallen in love with it, a jealous, possessive love that grabs at what it can. But life leaps over oblivion lightly, losing only a thing or two of no importance, and gloom is but the passing shadow of a cloud.
-- from Life of Pi

Much water may not put out love, or the deep waters overcome it: if a man would give all the substance of his house for love, it would be judged a price not great enough

Twain and Abraham Lincoln have both been credited for this quote however it sound strange that they were considering......

"Give a man a fish, he eats for a day. Teach a man how to fish, he eats for a lifetime". Not sure who said this, but its a great quote, showing us that by simply giving someone food/water will not do as much good as showing them how to get their own..

Another:

"You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain."

Harvey Dent, The Dark Knight

"Some men just want to watch the world burn"

Pretty sure its from batman.. >_>

There was another one that Ir eally liked, but forget it D:

I need to use that one the next time someone tries to tell me that teaching is all about giving people the answers, not helping people learn how to find the answer for themselves.
