Friendship is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art, like the universe itself (for God did not need to create). It has no survival value; rather it is one of those things which give value to survival.
C.S. Lewis
When we lose, I eat. When we win, I eat. I also eat when we're rained out.
The only way I'd worry about the weather is if it snows on our side of the field and not theirs.
I get 0.5 seconds to react to a ball, sometimes even less than that. I can't be thinking of what XYZ has said about me. I need to surrender myself to my natural instincts. My subconscious mind knows exactly what to do. It is trained to react. At home, my family doesn't discuss media coverage.
Sachin Tendulkar
Silence is the universal refuge, the sequel to all dull discourses and all foolish acts, a balm to our every chagrin, as welcome after satiety as after disappointment

Therefore only an utterly senseless person can fail to know that our characters are the result of our conduct.
Aristotle
It's good to have money and the things that money can buy, but it's good, too, to check up once in a while and make sure you haven't lost the things that money can't buy.
George Horace Latimer
They can't censor the gleam in my eye.
Charles Laughton
I'm torn about late parenting. I believe people should spend their twenties living and having fun and not having any regrets later. I also think people in their thirties generally make better parents but so many of my friends are having trouble - myself included - as fathers get older.
Eric McCormack
A strong hatred is the best lamp to bear in our hands as we go over the dark places of life, cutting away the dead things men tell us to revere.

You're alive, Bod. That means you have infinite potential. You can do anything, make anything, dream anything. If you can change the world, the world will change. Potential. Once you're dead, it's gone. Over. You've made what you've made, dreamed your dream, written your name. You may be buried here, you may even walk. But that potential is finished.
Neil Gaiman

Throughout my life, I have seen narrow-shouldered men, without a single exception, committing innumerable stupid acts, brutalizing their fellows and perverting souls by all means. They call the motive for their actions fame.
Isidore Ducasse Lautreamont
Poverty is unnecessary.
Muhammad Yunus
The great universal family of men is a utopia worthy of the most mediocre logic.
Despair, feeding, as it always does, on phantasmagoria, is imperturbably leading literature to the rejection, en masse, of all divine and social laws, towards practical and theoretical evil.

Benjamin Franklin
Sleep is a reward for some, a punishment for others. For all, it is a sanction.
I travel in so many different ways I travel high, I rough it... it all depends on who I travel with.
Diane von Furstenberg
Do the Duty which lies nearest thee, which thou knowest to be a Duty! Thy second Duty will already have become clearer.
Thomas Carlyle
Throughout the centuries, man has considered himself beautiful. I rather suppose that man only believes in his own beauty out of pride; that he is not really beautiful and he suspects this himself; for why does he look on the face of his fellow-man with such scorn?
I paint things as they are. I don't comment. I record.
Henri De Toulouse Lautrec
The craftiest trickery are too short and ragged a cloak to cover a bad heart.
