The basic test of freedom is perhaps less in what we are free to do than in what we are free not to do.
It seemed to travel with her, to sweep her aloft in the power of song, so that she was moving in glory among the stars, and for a moment she, too, felt that the words Darkness and Light had no meaning, and only this melody was real.
Madeleine L'Engle
The audience that I try to reach are members of what I call the church alumni association. Now they are people who have not found in institutional religion a God big enough to be God for their world.
John Shelby Spong
I've always loved music, but I never really played anything. After 'Walk the Line' and learning to play guitar, and having that sense of performing, I think that certainly opened the door for me, for music.
Joaquin Phoenix
I suppose I could have stayed home and baked cookies and had teas.
Hillary Clinton
Problems are not the problem; coping is the problem.
Virginia Satir
It is most important in creative science not to give up. If you are an optimist you will be willing to try more than if you are a pessimist.
Stanislaw Ulam
Ideas that require people to reorganize their picture of the world provoke hostility.
James Gleick
Our testimonies, our closeness to our Father in Heaven, and our ability to serve and love and laugh and enjoy life do not depend on whether we are married or single. If we look to Christ for answers, He will give them. It also follows that with our increased devotion and understanding of Him, the happier and more complete we will become and the more we will comprehend our true worth in the sight of God.
Kristen McMain Oaks
Great heroes need great sorrows and burdens, or half their greatness goes unnoticed. It is all part of the fairy tale.
Peter S. Beagle
Its complicated, on one level. On another, its the same old stupid story - we aren't enlightened. We disagree, fall in love, and hate eachother, the whole spectrum of human experience. We have differences of opinion, and sometimes, we can't resolve those differences peacefully. If a disagreement goes for long enough, and is important enough, people start to take sides. Once people start to take sides, conflict is inevitable.
Zachary Rawlins
It's not wrong to hustle hustlers. It's like killing murderers, a public service. -Damon Salvatore

Vlinders zijn de meest vergankelijke, gracieuze schepsels ter wereld. Ze worden uit het niets geboren, verlangen stilletjes naar iets heel kleins en beperkts, om uiteindelijk weer als in het niets te verdwijnen.
Haruki Murakami
I look forward to an America which will not be afraid of grace and beauty, which will protect the beauty of our natural environment, which will preserve the great old American houses and squares and parks of our national past and which will build handsome
John F. Kennedy
I sit in the sky like a sphinx misunderstood; My heart of snow is wed to the whiteness of swans; I hate the movement that displaces the rigid lines, With lips untaught neither tears nor laughter do I know.
Charles Baudelaire
I love being in the world of the unknown.

Nothing's for certain, It could always go wrong, Come in when it's raining, Go on out when it's gone, We could have us a high time, Living the good life, Well I know

I never give them hell. I just tell the truth and they think it's hell.
Harry S Truman
I'm looking forward to the peace of mind to just write... Songwriting is something that I just fell into. I never expected to love it. But I've always had to kind of treat it like a hobby. Now it's going to feel so good to know that I can just sit down and write.
Scott Clifton
I believe that the people, instead of pretty lies, should be told the truth, no matter how ugly it may be. What can we do, destiny hasn't been kind to us; but, with the help of God, we will prevail.
Alija Izetbegovic
The ordinary can be like medicine.
Sherman Alexie
To love someone as much as you love yourself, that is the ideal. Especially if that someone is your clone.?

I don't read Science Fiction.
Brent Spiner
Great things seem complex and cause the nations to rush towards the minor things that seem easy to reach, hence, they perish. And again my memory echoesmy people die for lack of knowledge.
Blaise Tshibwabwa
In BANKSY we trust.
Colin Tegerdine
And therefore is the outward beauty a true sign of the inward goodness, and in bodies this comeliness is imprinted, more and less, as it were, for a mark of the soul, whereby she is outwardly known; as in trees, in which the beauty of the buds giveth a testimony of the goodness of the fruit.
Thomas Hoby
It is worth noting that a wrong folkoric definition of an Inertial Frame in the Popular Science literature (even in text books) reads that 'it is a frame in uniform motion'. We know very well by now that the idea of motion requires a frame of reference, so that such a definition of an Inertial Frame has no meaning whatsoever, confusing the reader because it tacitly reaffirms the idea of absolute motion -- when the goal of every didactic exposition of Relativity Theory should be precisely the opposite.
Felix Alba-Juez
Indeed, it has affirmed my belief that our purpose as spiritual beings is to follow our bliss, seek our passions, and live our lives as inspirations to each other.
Aron Ralston
Science rules!
Bill Nye
Exceeding fair she was not; and yet fair In that she never studied to be fairer Than Nature made her; beauty cost her nothing, Her virtues were so rare.

Admittedly, the body of scientists, as a whole, does uphold the authority of science over the lay public. It controls thereby also the process by which young men are trained to become members of the scientific profession.
Michael Polanyi
Even if somebody else has it much worse, that doesn't reallychange the fact that you have what you have. Good and bad.
Stephen Chbosky
Remember that everyone you meet is afraid of something, loves something and has lost something.

God gives us love. Something to love He lends us; but when love is grown To ripeness, that on which it throve Falls off, and love is left alone.
