Here bring your wounded hearts, here tell your anguish Earth has no sorrow that Heaven cannot heal.
Leap and the net will appear
John Burroughs
It is a good principle in science not to believe any 'fact'---however well attested---until it fits into some accepted frame of reference. Occasionally, of course, an observation can shatter the frame and force the construction of a new one, but that is extremely rare. Galileos and Einsteins seldom appear more than once per century, which is just as well for the equanimity of mankind.
Arthur C. Clarke
Marriages maybe made in heaven, but a lot of the details have to be worked out here on earth.
Gloria Pitzer
Was I insane? Maybe. But then, there were many different kinds of insanity. Aunt Rose had always taken for granted that the whole world was in a state of constantly fluctuating madness, and that a neurosis was not an illness, but a fact of life, like pimples. Some have more, some have less, but only truly abnormal people have none at all. This commonsense philosophy had consoled me many times before, and it did now, too.
Anne Fortier
People close to me called me 'Curry in a Hurry.' I was moving through life at 100 miles an hour trying to further my career and be a great mom and make everyone happy.
Ann Curry
Speak what you think today in hard words and tomorrow speak what tomorrow thinks in hard words again, though it contradict every thing you said today.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Expectations make people miserable, so whatever yours are, lower them. You'll definitely be happier.
Simone Elkeles
Without obsession, life is nothing.
John Waters
He leaned back, appalled at himself. She was a ***damn dose of truth serum. Things were falling out of his mouth as though his ability to sensor had short-circuited.
Laura Spinella
Written history may, in the course of its narrative, use some of the laws established by the various sciences, but its own task remains that of relating the essential sequence of historical action and, qua history, to tell what happened, not why.
Lloyd deMause
I am the enfant terrible of literature and science.
Samuel Butler (novelist)
To understand life, and love it to its depths in a living being, that is the being's task, and that his masterpiece; and each of us can hardly occupy his time so greatly as with one other; we have only one true neighbor down here.
Henri Barbusse
All parents damage their children. It cannot be helped. Youth, like pristine glass, absorbs the prints of its handlers. Some parents smudge, others crack, a few shatter childhoods completely into jagged little pieces, beyond repair.
Mitch Albom
The view is endlessly fulfilling. It is like the answer to a lifetime of questions and vague cravings.
Don DeLillo
Everyone has his own reality in which, if one is not too cautious, timid or frightened, one swims. This is the only reality there is.
Henry Miller
You are the one girl that made me risk eveything for a future worth having.
Trust and believe, and you will achieve.
Jonathan Anthony Burkett
The smooth folds of her dress concealed a tumultuous heart, and her modest lips told nothing of her torment. She was in love.
Gustave Flaubert
In his youth, he was electrified. The stars were moving in his bloodstream. He would not have been cowed by the customs of an earthly monarch. When he loved, it was with a heat and a desperation that he carried like a sword. He loved in the way that Greeks burned cities.
Brenna Yovanoff
And each book has to receive your best effort every single time. No slacking.
Nora Roberts
We are all only men, defined by our choices.
I.E. Castellano
In stories like Cinderella and Beauty and the Beast, they always say the heroine is 'as good as she is beautiful.' I wondered if people just wanted that to be true, wanted the beautiful to be good. I wondered if they wanted the ugly to be bad because then they wouldn't have to feel bad for them.
Alex Flinn
Surely,' she said, much quieter, more reasonable, 'surely you've been with other women?'His glance at her was dry. 'What do you think?'She looked away at random. 'I think that it appears we have a double standard, here. Men can have sex, women can't. Who, then, do the men have sex with?
Amanda Carpenter
Their world has changed overnight ...Even after the trial, after the verdict -- whatever it might be -- life would never be the same again.That was the truth of murder.
Marian Babson
Forget not yet the tried intent Of such a truth as I have meant; My great travail so gladly spent, Forget not yet!
Thomas Wyatt
You know you love him when you can't sleep at night and get up early to talk to him the next morning.
Kayla Carson
Knowing hot to be solitary is central to the art of loving. When we can be alone, we can be with others without using them as a means of escape.
Bell Hooks
Stop listening to the TV tell you about America the beautiful . . . get up and be America the beautiful.
Rivera Sun
To progress in life you must give up the things you do not like. Give up doing the things that you do not like to do. You must find the things that you do like. The things that are acceptable to your mind.
Agnes Martin
All sciences are vain and full of errors that are not born of Experience, the mother of all Knowledge.
Leonardo da Vinci
They will envy you for your success, your wealth, for your intelligence, for your looks, for your status - but rarely for your wisdom.
Nassim Nicholas Taleb
Crime to many is not crime but simply a way of life. If laws are inconvenient, ignore them, they don't apply to you.
Dick Francis
I would hesitate to use the word 'success' in the way many people do. I don't know that I would apply it to what I've done as though I have now reached the ultimate goal. To me success is a continuing thing. It is growth and development. It is achieving one thing and using that as a stepping stone to achieve something else. Success comes as you have confidence in yourself. Self-confidence is built by succeeding, even if the success is small. It is the believing that makes it possible.
Walter Knott
When you took a man's job away from him, his ability to feed and clothe his family, that man was going to get angry.
Darrin Grimwood
I rather take the risk of trying to find real love than loving someone I know that is guaranteed
Kristal Eley
There is no truth except the truth that exists within you. Everything else is what someone is telling you.
Neale Donald Walsch
The evil effect of science upon men is principally this, that by far the greatest number of those who wish to display a knowledge of it accomplish no improvement at all of the understanding, but only a perversity of it, not to mention that it serves most of them as a tool of vanity.
Immanuel Kant
He who has truth at his heart need never fear the want of persuasion on his tongue.
John Ruskin
Mungkin aja lo pikir, anak-anak dari keluarga miskin itu menderita. Tapi siapa tahu, mereka justru lebih bahagia daripada kita karena mereka nggak terikat materi.
Lexie Xu
All human beings have their otherness and it is that which cries out to the heart.
