Author: Henry Labouchere
About: Abuse
"Knowledge, without common sense, says Lee, is folly; without method, it is waste; without kindness, it is fanaticism; without religion, it is death. But with common sense, it is wisdom with method, it is power; with clarity, it is beneficence; with religion, it is virtue, and life, and peace."

"Youth is a wonderful thing. What a crime to waste it on children."
Author: George Bernard Shaw
About: Age
"E'en in mid-harvest, while the jocund swain
Pluck'd from the brittle stalk the golden grain,
Oft have I seen the war of winds contend,
And prone on earth th' infuriate storm descend,
Waste far and wide, and by the roots uptorn,
The heavy harvest sweep through ether borne,
As light straw and rapid stubble fly
In dark'ning whirlwinds round the wintry sky."
Author: Virgil or Vergil (Publius Virgilius Maro Vergil)

[Lat., Trahit ipse furoris
Impetus, et visum est lenti quaesisse nocentum.]"
Author: Lucanus (Marcus Annaeus Lucan)

"Nuclear waste is a heavy burden to lay on our children and their children and their children's children and their children's children's children and their children's children's children's children..."
Author: Rufina M. Laws
About: Burden
"Who has not marveled at the might of kings When voyaging down the river of dead years? What deeds of death to still an hour of fears, What waste of wealth to gild a moth's frail wings! A Caesar to the breeze his banner flings, An Alexander with his bloody spears, A Herod heedless of his people's tears! And Rome in ruin while Nero laughs and sings: Ye actors of a drama, cruel and cold, Your names are by-words in Love's temple now, Your pomp and glory but a winding-sheet; Then Christ came scorning regal power and gold To wear warm blood-drops on a willing brow, And we, in love, forever kiss His feet."
