Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a quote about communication security shaping the future?
Yes. One quote states: "The decisions we make about communication security today will determine the kind of society we live in tomorrow." It's a forward-looking statement about the long-term stakes of today's choices. For more thoughtful, big-picture lines, see Good quotes.
Is there a quote about how sports teams are built today compared to the past?
Yes. One quote points out that the rules have changed, and there's no set way to build a team today - it's really about how much money you want to spend, since a champion team can lose ground the moment somebody else makes a key acquisition. It's a candid take on money's role in modern sports.
Does this page touch on imperialism, at home or abroad?
Yes - one quote observes that it's becoming increasingly apparent to thoughtful Americans that a country cannot fight the forces and ideas of imperialism abroad while maintaining any form of imperialism at home. Browse Life quotes for more reflective, socially-minded lines.
Is there a quote about fanaticism becoming mainstream over time?

What does "today" mean across these different quotes?
It marks a moment of decision or change throughout - security choices today shaping tomorrow's society, how teams are built today versus in the past, imperialism as a today-and-tomorrow problem, and fanaticism turning into tomorrow's fashionable creed. For more first-person takes, see Me quotes.

One historical quote argues that confronting injustice abroad requires confronting it at home too, a civil-rights-era argument still cited today. A closing line warns that today's extreme view often becomes tomorrow's accepted one. See also Good and I Am.
