Fred Rogers
 

There is no Heav'en, there is no Hell; these be the dreams of baby minds,
Tools of the wily Fetisheer, to 'fright the fools his cunning blinds.
Learn from the mighty Spi'rits of old to set thy foot on Heav'en and Hell;
In Life to find thy hell and heav'en as thou abuse or use it well.

 
Sir Richard Francis Burton

Heav'n did a recompense as largely send:
He gave to Mis'ry all he had, a tear,
He gained from Heav'n ('twas all he wished) a friend.

 
Thomas Gray
 

The First Amendment, I think, is the jewel of our Constitution.

Too black for heav'n, and yet too white for hell.

 
John Dryden
