Civil union is less than marriage. Marriage is a sacred and valued institution and ought to be afforded equal protection.
Difficult times always create opportunities for you to experience more love in your life.
Barbara de Angelis
This and no other is the root from which a tyrant springs; when he first appears he is a protector.
Plato
Men of age object too much, consult too long, adventure too little, repent too soon, and seldom drive business home to the full period, but content themselves with a mediocrity of success.
Dale Carnegie
Each one prays to God according to his own light.
Mahatma Gandhi
What a wee little part of a person's life are his acts and his words! His real life is led in his head, and is known to none but himself.
Mark Twain
Equality of possessions is no doubt right, but, as men could not make might obey right, they have made right obey might. 299
Blaise Pascal
I don't like your miserable lonely single front name. It is so limited, so meager; it has no versatility; it is weighted down with the sense of responsibility; it is worn threadbare with much use; it is as bad as having only one jacket and one hat; it is like having only one relation, one blood relation, in the world. Never set a child afloat on the flat sea of life with only one sail to catch the wind.
D. H. (David Herbert) Lawrence
Never permit failure to become a habit.
William Frederick Book
Friendship is a ship big enough to carry two in fair weather, but only one in foul.
Ambrose Bierce
God how I hate new countries: They are older than the old, more sophisticated, much more conceited, only young in a certain puerile vanity more like senility than anything.
Even as we enumerate their shortcomings, the rigor of raising children ourselves makes clear to us our mothers' incredible strength. We fear both. If they are not strong, who will protect us? If they are not imperfect, how can we equal them?
Anna Quindlen
Truth will ultimately prevail where there is pains to bring it to light.
George Washington
Since obscenity is the truth of our passion today, it is the only stuff of art -- or almost the only stuff.
It's sort of a feeling of power onstage. It's really the ability to make people smile, or just to turn them one way or another for that duration of time, and for it to have some effect later on. I don't really think it's power... it's the goodness.
Robert Plant
I love Italian opera -- it's so reckless. Damn Wagner, and his bellowings at Fate and death. Damn Debussy, and his averted face. I like the Italians who run all on impulse, and don't care about their immortal souls, and don't worry about the ultimate.
To be silent; to be alone. All the being and the doing, expansive, glittering, vocal, evaporated; and one shrunk, with a sense of solemnity, to being oneself, a wedge-shaped core of darkness, something invisible to others.
Virginia Woolf
Every one rushes elsewhere and into the future, because no one wants to face one's own inner self.
Michel de Montaigne
One can no longer live with people: it is too hideous and nauseating. Owners and owned, they are like the two sides of a ghastly disease.
From coast to coast, the FBI and Securities and Exchange Commission have ensnared people not only at hedge funds, but at technology and pharmaceutical companies, consulting and law firms, government agencies, and even a major stock exchange.
Preet Bharara
I am convinced that He (God) does not play dice.
Albert Einstein
We need not feel ashamed of flirting with the zodiac. The zodiac is well worth flirting with.
The most useless are those who never change through the years.
James M. Barrie
If we have been pleased with life, we should not be displeased with death, since it comes from the hand of the same master.
Michelangelo
People are generally better persuaded by the reasons which they have themselves discovered than by those which have come in to the mind of others.
Pornography is the attempt to insult sex, to do dirt on it.
Just because something doesn't do what you planned it to do doesn't mean it's useless.
Thomas A. Edison
If a woman hasn't got a tiny streak of a harlot in her, she's a dry stick as a rule.
In principle, there are only three main components of spending that much matter to monetary policy: consumer spending, business investment and exports and trade.
Evan Davis
This is patently absurd but whoever wishes to become a philosopher must learn not to be frightened by absurdities.
Bertrand Russell
We have lost the art of living; and in the most important science of all, the science of daily life, the science of behavior, we are complete ignoramuses. We have psychology instead.
I've done performances in movies that I was immensely proud of and the movies didn't take off like a rocket at Cape Canaveral, it didn't take off.
Albert Brooks
Aristotle maintained that women have fewer teeth than men; although he was twice married, it never occurred to him to verify this statement by examining his wives' mouths.
Always this same morbid interest in other people and their doings, their privacies, their dirty linen, always this air of alertness for personal happenings, personalities, personalities, personalities. Always this subtle criticism and appraisal of other people, this analysis of other people's motives. If anatomy presupposes a corpse, then psychology presupposes a world of corpses. Personalities, which means personal criticism and analysis, presuppose a whole world laboratory of human psyches waiting to be vivisected. If you cut a thing up, of course it will smell. Hence, nothing raises such an infernal stink, at last, as human psychology.
I am a lover of truth, a worshipper of freedom, a celebrant at the altar of language and purity and tolerance.
Stephen Fry
Our problem, from the point of view of psychology and from the point of view of genetic epistemology, is to explain how the transition is made from a lower level of knowledge to a level that is judged to be higher.
Jean Piaget
Man wanted a home, a place for warmth, or comfort, first of physical warmth, then the warmth of the affections.
Henry David Thoreau
I want relations which are not purely personal, based on purely personal qualities; but relations based upon some unanimous accord in truth or belief, and a harmony of purpose, rather than of personality. I am weary of personality. Let us be easy and impersonal, not forever fingering over our own souls, and the souls of our acquaintances, but trying to create a new life, a new common life, a new complete tree of life from the roots that are within us.
We are born at a given moment, in a given place and, like vintage years of wine, we have the qualities of the year and of the season of which we are born. Astrology does not lay claim to anything more.
Carl Jung
In L.A., I get a meal delivery service called Diet Designs. I like a nice butter lettuce salad with some avocado, fresh grapefruit, shredded chicken breast and raw almond slices with a sesame vinaigrette dressing. I also love juicing and am kind of obsessed with it.
Fergie
A man has no religion who has not slowly and painfully gathered one together, adding to it, shaping it; and one's religion is never complete and final, it seems, but must always be undergoing modification.
