Philosophy

"That discipline, therefore, which corrects the eagerness of worldly passions which fortifies the heart with virtuous principles, which enlightens the mind with useful knowledge, and furnishes to it a matter of enjoyment from within itself, is of more consequence to real felicity than all the provision which was can make out of the goods of fortune."

Hugh Blair On the Proper Estimate of Human Life (from Sermons Edinburgh, 1780)

Jerusalem

"But we hope, too, that through all the noise and excitement you'll glimpse a single golden thread of purpose - the idea of Jerusalem - of the better world, the world of real freedom and true equality, a world that can be built through the prosperity of industry, through the caring nation that built the welfare state, through the joyous energy of popular culture, through the dream of universal communication. A belief that we can build Jerusalem. And that it will be for everyone."

Danny Boyle, Olympics Opening Ceremony 2012
