Anger ventilated often hurries towards forgiveness; anger concealed often hardens into revenge.
Art is a jealous mistress, and, if a man have a genius for painting, poetry, music, architecture, or philosophy, he makes a bad husband, and an ill provider, and should be wise in season, and not fetter himself with duties which will embitter his day
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Lies do not lie, truth do, In the times of any act lies lie hidden behind.

I am walking over hot coals suspended over a deep pit at the bottom of which are a large number of vipers baring their fangs.
Always remember when you are on top of the world , that the earth rotates every 24 hrs.
Steve G. Makris
Every journalist who is not too stupid or too full of himself to notice what is going on knows that what he does is morally indefensible. He is a kind of confidence man, preying on people's vanity, ignorance, or loneliness, gaining their trust and betraying them without remorse.
Janet Malcolm
The dominant and most deep-dyed trait of the journalist is his timorousness. Where the novelist fearlessly plunges into the water of self-exposure, the journalist stands trembling on the shore in his beach robe. The journalist confines himself to the clean, gentlemanly work of exposing the grieves and shames of others.
If you scratch a great photograph, you find two things; a painting and a photograph.
Fidelity to the subject's thought and to his characteristic way of expressing himself is the sine qua non of journalistic quotation.

The greatest thing about any civilization is the human person, and the greatest thing about this person is the possibility of his encounter with the person of Jesus Christ.
Charles Malik
Where women are concerned, the rule is never to go out with anyone better dressed than you.
John Malkovich
It's not a field, I think, for people who need to have success every day: if you can't live with a nightly sort of disaster, you should get out. I wouldn't describe myself as lacking in confidence, but I would just say that the ghosts you chase you never catch.
And, as always happens, and happens far too soon, the strange and wonderful becomes a memory and a memory becomes a dream. Tomorrow it's gone.
Terry Pratchett
Doubt thou the stars are fire;Doubt that the sun doth move;Doubt truth to be a liar;But never doubt I love.
Beauty lies not in the things we see, but in the soul.
John Lancaster Spalding

Richard M. Nixon
Language is a more recent technology. Your body language, your eyes, your energy will come through to your audience before you even start speaking.
Peter Guber
Marius and Cosette were in the dark in regard to each other. They did not speak, they did not bow, they were not acquainted; they saw each other; and, like the stars in the sky separated by millions of leagues, they lived by gazing upon each other.
Victor Hugo
I was thinking that when I have children, that I should always dress as a character for them, so they think their mom is Alice in Wonderland or Cinderella. It would be totally messed up!
Gwen Stefani
The most peaceable way for you, if you do take a thief, is, to let him show himself what he is and steal out of your company.
A verb has a hard enough time of it in this world when it is all together. It's downright inhuman to split it up. But that's what those Germans do. They take part of a verb and put it down here, like a stake, and they take the other part of it and put it a way over yonder like another stake, and between these two limits they just shovel in German.
Mark Twain
Socrate considérait que c'est un mal qui n'est pas loin de la folie, de s'imaginer que l'on possède une vertu, alors qu'on ne la possède pas. Certes, une pareille illusion est plus dangereuse que l'illusion contraire qui consiste ? croire que l'on souffre d'un défaut, d'un vice.Deuxième Considération intempestive, ch. 6
Friedrich Nietzsche
Goldstone has done terrible damage to the cause of truth and justice and the rule of law. He has poisoned Jewish-Palestinian relations, undermined the courageous work of Israeli dissenters and most unforgivably increased the risk of another merciless IDF assault.
Norman G. Finkelstein
I love food and feel that it is something that should be enjoyed. I eat whatever I want. I just don't overeat.
Tyra Banks

We'll just have to get along. That's what people do, you know? They just get along. And try to help each other.
Stephen King
Love is our freedom.
Milan Kundera
Praise and blame, gain and loss, pleasure and pain, fame and disripute, these are just the worldly winds of existence.
T. Scott McLeod
A trip to space is a big motivator to give up some things in your personal life. Obviously, you can't give up everything and you don't want to.
Mark Kelly
Roses just now predominate. There is a satisfying solidity about the bunches, a glorious abundance which, in a commodity so easily enjoyed without ownership, is scarcely credible. I feel no desire to own these huge aggregations of odorous beauty. It would be like owning a harem, one imagines.
William Mcfee
...and it occurred to me, with the forcefulness of a thought experienced in 360 degrees, that that's really what history mostly is: masses of people doing ordinary things.
Bill Bryson
I happened to look up and there it was. All over and done with, at last. I sat on for a few moments with the ball in my hand and the dog yelping and pawing at me. (Pause.) Moments. Her moments, my moments (Pause.) The dog's moments.
Samuel Beckett
