Ambition is a dream with a V8 engine.
There is nothing respecting which a man may be so long unconscious as of the extent and strength of his prejudices.
Francis Jeffrey
Yes, I always remember my dad's, mom's and my grandma's perfumes.
Marc Jacobs
The ideal death, I think, is what was the ideal Victorian death, you know, with your grandchildren around you, a bit of sobbing. And you say goodbye to your loved ones, making certain that one of them has been left behind to look after the shop.
Terry Pratchett
I'm honest about the journey I've been on, so I definitely don't take dating lightly anymore.
Demi Lovato

Theresa May
I'm in the perfect position. It's a sports position and a political position where I can help better the lives of athletes around the world.
Angela Ruggiero
A major league pitching coach is a really difficult job. It takes a big commitment in terms of time, travel and workload.
David Cone
For strange effects and extraordinary combinations we must go to life itself, which is always far more daring than any effort of the imagination.
Arthur Conan Doyle
I'm interested in learning more about myself and what I value in myself and letting that be the beautiful part of me, rather than putting on the makeup or wearing the right designer.
Jessica Simpson
Light in Nature creates the movement of colors.
Robert Delaunay
The politician in my country seeks votes, affection and respect, in that order. With few notable exceptions, they are simply men who want to be loved.
Edward R. Murrow
I'm an amateur science enthusiast. I'm not even a professional enthusiast. I don't know anything I never even passed biology in high school. But I read the science section of the newspaper.
Dave Eggers
Yoga is wonderful. It clears up most health problems. It also gives you an overview.
Helen Reddy
We are really on top of one another at the moment and I think it is amazing how we stay so close. Maybe that's the test. Why not totally put yourself together, rather than always wonder whether you actually like each other?
Linda McCartney
It's amazing. I can't believe how brilliant the whole thing is - my daughter, Georgia, is just wonderful.
Edward Hall
The Universal Declaration of Human Rights describes the family as the natural and fundamental unit of society. It follows that any choice and decision with regard to the size of the family must irrevocably rest with the family itself, and cannot be made by anyone else.
Garrett Hardin
Without economic development, any potential for political openness and freedom will be questionable.
Jose Maria Aznar
I'm trying to figure myself out through my movies. Whether it's big stuff like what we're doing here, or little stuff like, 'Why aren't I happier?' With every film I feel like I'm apologising for something. I feel I'm most successful when I'm looking for something that embarrasses me about my character that I'd like to expose.
Jason Reitman
No matter how long he lives, no man ever becomes as wise as the average woman of forty-eight.
H. L. Mencken
I write in order to attain that feeling of tension relieved and function achieved which a cow enjoys on giving milk.
I go on working for the same reason that a hen goes on laying eggs.
Life is a constant oscillation between the sharp horns of dilemmas.
You really have to look inside yourself and find your own inner strength, and say, 'I'm proud of what I am and who I am, and I'm just going to be myself.'
Mariah Carey
I was a mixture of being incredibly old for my age and incredibly backwards. I was born quite old, but then I stopped growing. I lived with my mum and dad till I was 30.
Helena Bonham Carter
The first method for estimating the intelligence of a ruler is to look at the men he has around him.
Niccolo Machiavelli
Why am I so famous? What am I doing right? What are the others doing wrong?
Barbra Streisand
I'm a very driven, ambitious, positive person. But I'm a spiritual person as well. I believe in creative visualization. So for me to go to America - which I find such a positive place - well, I took to it like a duck to water.
Victoria Beckham
Christians can bring peace to multi-religious Europe because we are able to understand the role of faith in the lives of other believers better than atheists.
Timothy Radcliffe
We live in a society of victimization, where people are much more comfortable being victimized than actually standing up for themselves.
Marilyn Manson
On stage, we just want to generate hysteria. We don't care about looking cool or posing.
Adrian Edmondson
We're seeing quite a lot of people who really would like a return to class-based politics.
Patricia Hewitt
My mom would be leaving the house and she'd say, 'Don't you pull out all of the old dresses in the attic and put on a show again!' And the door would close, and that's exactly what I'd do. The show was calling me!
Michael Patrick King
I have simplified my politics into an utter detestation of all existing governments; and, as it is the shortest and most agreeable and summary feeling imaginable, the first moment of an universal republic would convert me into an advocate for single and uncontradicted despotism. The fact is, riches are power, and poverty is slavery all over the earth, and one sort of establishment is no better, nor worse, for a people than another.
Lord (George Gordon) Byron
A bargain is in its very essence a hostile transaction do not all men try to abate the price of all they buy? I contend that a bargain even between brethren is a declaration of war.
I like his holiness very much, particularly since an order, which I understand he has lately given, that no more miracles shall be performed.
I believe it is essential for our planetary future to develop tools that can change the consciousness which has created the crisis that we are in.
Stanislav Grof
What a strange thing is the propagation of life! A bubble of seed which may be spilt in a whore's lap, or in the orgasm of a voluptuous dream, might (for aught we know) have formed a Caesar or a Bonaparte -- there is nothing remarkable recorded of their sires, that I know of.
I should be very willing to redress men wrongs, and rather check than punish crimes, had not Cervantes, in that all too true tale of Quixote, shown how all such efforts fail.
This sort of adoration of the real is but a heightening of the beau ideal.
My attachment has neither the blindness of the beginning, nor the microscopic accuracy of the close of such liaisons.
