We can change our lives. We can do, have, and be exactly what we wish.
Great nations are simply the operating fronts of behind-the-scenes, vastly ambitious individuals who had become so effectively powerful because of their ability to remain invisible while operating behind the national scenery.
R. Buckminster Fuller
Too much of our society looks for people to fail.
Roger Goodell
Among the natural rights of the colonists are these: First a right to life, secondly to liberty, and thirdly to property together with the right to defend them in the best manner they can.
Samuel Adams
People are pretty forgiving when it comes to other people's families. The only family that ever horrifies you is your own.
Doug Coupland
I cried when I found out I was a finalist, I kind of went limp when they called my name. I felt like my spirit jumped out of my body, and I was just flesh - it was just amazing.
Naima Adedapo
I get up at sunrise. I'm a Buddhist, so I chant in the morning. My wife and I sit and have coffee together, but then it's list-making time. I have carpentry projects. We have roads we keep in repair. It's not back-breaking, but it's certainly aerobic and mildly strenuous.
Patrick Duffy
When I travel, I draw and paint sketches which is great fun. And as long as you are fully aware that it has nothing to do with actual art, I think that's all right.
Arne Jacobsen
People drain me, even the closest of friends, and I find loneliness to be the best state in the union to live in.
Margaret Cho
Death is easier than a wretched life and better never to have born than to live and fare badly.
Aeschylus
I've always fantasized about being on TV. And I was. Then I fantasized about being in the movies. What could be better than captain of a space ship? I get to ride horses, shoot guns, have adventures.
Nathan Fillion
So, when it comes to eating healthy, it's just doing the right thing. And it's not something you have to do 365 days a year, but I think it's something you have to do 25 days a month. Let's put it that way.
Mike Ditka
My feelings about my mortality are less selfish than they used to be. I used to affect a cavalier attitude to death now I see it from my son's perspective.
Rufus Sewell
My mum is my beauty icon, because she represents what I think beauty is.
Bar Refaeli
We are all travelers in the wilderness of this world, and the best we can find in our travels is an honest friend.
Robert Louis Stevenson
On one level, nothing's really changed in my life. I still drive my daughter in the car pool on Monday. But it's impossible not to be aware of this rush of attention it's impossible not to be seduced by it once you've entered into it, seduced by being unhappy when the attention wanes.
Michael Tolkin
If we are strong, and have faith in life and its richness of surprises, and hold the rudder steadily in our hands. I am sure we will sail into quiet and pleasent waters for our old age.
Freya Stark
For many my behavior has been a major disappointment, my behavior has caused considerable worry to my business partners, and everyone involved in my business, but most importantly to the young people we influence, I apologize.
Tiger Woods
The first two movies I directed failed, when I was 21 and 23, and that was the greatest thing that could have happened.
M. Night Shyamalan
I know there is strength in the differences between us. I know there is comfort where we overlap.
Ani DiFranco
Unfortunately, what many people forget is that judges are just lawyers in robes.
Tammy Bruce
Just as we could have rode into the sunset, along came the Internet, and it tripled the significance of the PC.
Andy Grove
Fear? If I have gained anything by damning myself, it is that I no longer have anything to fear.
Jean-Paul Sartre
I think there are a lot of technocrats in the business who would much rather work with just wheels and gears and machinery. Those things interest them more than humanity and I wish them the best of luck.
Ron Perlman
I like pens. My writing is so amazing there's never a need to erase.
Todd Barry
My dad's an architect and my mom owned a French bakery for twelve years.
Alison Lohman
I think that men know how to romance a woman and most do it well, at least for a time, otherwise women wouldn't marry them. The problem is that most of them begin to rest on their laurels.
Nicholas Sparks
'Twilight' is such an amazing project, and I think it opened up doors for all of us cast members.
Kellan Lutz
The people of Liberia know what it means to be deprived of clean water, but we also know what it means to see our children to begin to smile again with a restoration of hope and faith in the future.
Ellen Johnson Sirleaf
I kind of resent this attitude of men that we somehow must always look good.
Sharon Gless
Girls are taught to sing high and pretty, like Antony, not low and from the guts like Nina Simone. But we're slowly trying to change that. There are so many things we're not told growing up, and it's our true feminist responsibility to take the truth to the people who need to hear it.
Beth Ditto
I design my shots. I walk the rehearsal as the camera and say 'this is where I want to be... I want this look.
Debbie Allen
To expect the unexpected shows a thoroughly modern intellect.
Oscar Wilde
Health is wealth.
Anonymous
Resolve and thou art free.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
I like a well-roasted rotisserie chicken and eggs cooked various ways, like sunny-side up or scrambled. It's comfort food for me.
Joel Robuchon
What do you mean by faith? Is faith enough for Man? Should he be satisfied with faith alone? Is there no way of finding out the truth? Is the attitude of faith, of believing in something for which there can be no more than philosophic proof, the true mark of a Christian?
Clifford D. Simak
I support legal immigration.
Heather Wilson
If a man's eye is on the Eternal, his intellect will grow.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
One definition of man is an intelligence served by organs.
We lie in the lap of immense intelligence.
