The religious superstition is encouraged by means of the institution of churches, processions, monuments, festivities....The so-called clergy stupefy the masses....They befog the people and keep them in an eternal condition of stupefaction
Leo Nikolaevich Tolstoy
I`m thrilled of the acceptance I get abroad. The people are so hearty, warm and grateful and I feel privileged having seen so many countries and some of the greatest monuments.
Daniel Radcliffe
Any movie I`ve ever made, the minute you walk on the set they tell you who`s the person to buy it from. Cher said they`re going to make two monuments to us -- the two girls who lived through Hollywood and never had cocaine.
Teri Garr
Who could look on these monuments without reflecting on the vanity of mortals in thus offering up testimonials of their respect for persons of whose very names posterity is ignorant?
Alysia Waters

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad
It is unacceptable that disabled veterans in Illinois rank at the bottom of the list when it comes to disability pay. We owe our disabled veterans more than speeches, parades and monuments.
Alan Uke
I have been told, `good idea,` but I just haven`t found the money. I have $2,000 and probably would need $20,000 to get all of the monuments built.
Larry Thomas
What you leave behind is not what is engraved in stone monuments, but what is woven into the lives of others.
Pericles
