Mahatma Gandhi
We were probably the last people in the country to get a VCR and we didn't have cable. There wasn't any admiration of glamour, no, 'I want to look like them or have that lifestyle', because everyone in my town had the same lifestyle. So I didn't think, 'Ooh, a movie star's birthday!' I just thought, 'What?'
Christina Hendricks
Love makes the wildest spirit tame, and the tamest spirit wild.
Alexis Delp
A man is as good as he has to be, and a woman as bad as she dares.
Elbert Hubbard
Perseverance and audacity generally win!
Madame Dorothe Deluzy
A man only lives once and the best strategy is always to make most of it. Success is not the only reason for existence.
Dong Nguyen
Death is a billion-dollar business. They can't even pass a law where it takes seven days to get a gun. Why don't you have to go through the same kind of screening you do to get a driver's license? It's totally insane.
John Cusack
We believe at once in evil, we only believe in good upon reflection. Is this not sad?
It is not in the stars to hold our destiny but in ourselves.

Happiness resides not in possessions, and not in gold, happiness dwells in the soul.
All art is autobiographical. The pearl is the oyster's autobiography.
Federico Fellini

Margaret J. Wheatley
I know of no more encouraging fact than the unquestionable ability of man to elevate his life by conscious endeavor.
Henry David Thoreau
Peace is not the product of a victory or a command. It has no finishing line, no final deadline, no fixed definition of achievement. Peace is a never-ending process, the work of many decisions.

Maya Angelou
There is only one real sin and that is to persuade oneself that the second best is anything but second best.
Doris Lessing
What I've discovered is that in art, as in music, there's a lot of truth-and then there's a lie. The artist is essentially creating his work to make this lie a truth, but he slides it in amongst all the others. The tiny little lie is the moment I live for, my moment. It's the moment that the audience falls in love.
Lady Gaga
Every failure is a step to success.
William Whewell

Norman Lear
None are so empty as those who are full of themselves.
