I am no bird; and no net ensnares me; I am a free human being with an independent will.
In the business world today, failure is apparently not an option. We need to change this attitude toward failure - and celebrate the idea that only by falling on our collective business faces do we learn enough to succeed down the road.
Naveen Jain

Matt Groening
The food isn't too bad. It's very different from the food that the astronauts ate in the very early days of the space program.
Sally Ride
Maybe it is something to do with age, but I have become fonder of poetry than of prose.
Aung San Suu Kyi
I have great friends around me that are positive and I think that's the key to life is making your own path. Set your own rules because there is no set rule, there is no set look, there is no set anything. You make your own rules in your life. You make your own decisions.
Amber Riley
I don't need to be looking at every failure of government, I need to be looking where failure of government needs reform.
Darrell Issa
The truth is, if anyone saw my home life, I'm pretty sure it would look like other families' around the world. There's a lot of juggling to be done.
Brooke Burke
What is home?
Anon.
There are lots of people out there who think they know the truth about God and religion, but does anybody really know for sure? That's why the founding fathers built freedom of religious belief into the structure of this nation, so that everybody could make up their minds for themselves.
Jesse Ventura
But when you're writing a script - for me anyway - you have to sort of create an enforced innocence. You have to divest yourself of worrying about a lot of stuff like what movies are hot, what movies are not hot, what the budget of this movie might be.
David Cronenberg
We're here to bring beauty to the world and make a difference in this planet. That's what art forms are about.
Charlie Haden
Since we live in this world, we have to do our best for this world.
Women get more unhappy the more they try to liberate themselves.
Brigitte Bardot
Do not follow vain desires for verily he who prospers is preserved from lust, greed and anger.
Abu Bakr
I don't think any other city in the world... the sun doesn't shine the same way anywhere as it does in New York. And then I guess everyone's very good at hanging out. Not in a crazy way, but you're just constantly interacting and learning.
Ben Lovett
I hate how box-office failures are blamed on an actress, yet I don't see a box-office failure blamed on men.
Ellen Page
There's a small club of women who are willing to age.
Debra Winger
I just want to have a great relationship with my child and have a great family dynamic.
Tori Spelling
Hunger and fear are the only realities in dog life: an empty stomach makes a fierce dog.
Robert Falcon Scott
Put you energy into music. If it fails you, you can become an accountant or a dentist. And then if you become a dentist or an accountant, it's too late to become a musician afterwards.
Peter Tork
My father also happened to be an intellectual, as learned, literate, informed, and curious as anyone I have known. Unobtrusively and casually, he was my wise and gentle teacher.
James Tobin
For me, just being how old I am, I know I don't want to be a single mom. I really would rather make it a two-person job. But I've also come to terms with not being a mother at all. I'm actually really good with either direction that my life can take as being a valid experience.
Lisa Edelstein
All my life I've had the privilege to make my living with my imagination, and the most important thing has been to see my creative life grow. I was educated to do that and have lived accordingly.
Tommy Lee Jones
I started getting these attacks in 2009, just as my music career was taking off. I'd be doing photo-shoots and started to feel like I was having heart attacks. Increasingly I found it difficult to step outside my flat. Things started to get better after I saw a therapist, who told me I needed to make peace with my panic attacks.
Ellie Goulding
The thing is, when I had my first success it did coincide with the end of my first marriage, and because I went on to have a very, very unhappy two years, I don't think I equate career success with personal happiness.
Rob Brydon
They're trying to tell us that we're not right, so we have to buy their products. The number one cause of mental illness is not knowing who you are and you can't know who you are if you don't spend time honoring yourself, and living in the present.
Naomi Judd
A filmmaker has almost the same freedom as a novelist has when he buys himself some paper.
Stanley Kubrick
For me, family always comes first I would do anything to protect them.
Mark Wahlberg
So why am I facing a recall election? Simple: the big government union bosses from Washington want their money. They don't like the fact that I did something fundamentally pro-worker something that's truly about freedom.
Scott Walker
I love my children. That will never change. I have prayed to them for forgiveness and hope that they will forgive me. I never meant to hurt them!!
Susan Smith
Success is no exclusive club. It is open to each individual who has the courage to choose his own goal and go after it. It is from this forward motion that human growth springs, and out of it comes the human essence known as character.
Howard Whitman
If I traveled to the end of the rainbow as Dame Fortune did intend, Murphy would be there to tell me the pot's at the other end.
Bert Whitney
No pain that we suffer, no trial that we experience is wasted. It ministers to the development of such qualities as patience, faith, fortitude and humility. All that we suffer and all that we endure, especially when we endure it patiently, builds up our characters, purifies our hearts, expands our souls, and makes us more tender and charitable, more worthy to be called the children of God... and it is through sorrow and suffering, toil and tribulation, that we gain the education that we come here to acquire and which will make us more like our Father and Mother in heaven.
Orson F. Whitney
In the advance of civilization, it is new knowledge which paves the way, and the pavement is eternal.
W. R. Whitney
Rules and models destroy genius and art.
William Hazlitt
Some men have thousands of reasons why they cannot do what they want to, when all they need is one reason why they can.
Willis Whitney
Deep breaths are very helpful at shallow parties.
Barbara Walters
Remember, Ginger Rogers did everything Fred Astaire did, but she did it backwards and in high heels.

I don't walk around with fear. I walk around with strength. I believe in cause and effect.
