Tiffany knew what the problem was immediately. She'd seen it before, atbirthday parties. Her brother was suffering from tragic sweetdeprivation. Yes, he was surrounded by sweets. But the moment he took anysweet at all, said his sugar-addled brain, that meant he was not takingall the rest. And there were so many sweets he'd never be able to eatthem all. It was too much to cope with. The only solution was to burstinto tears.
Terry Pratchett
I was a catastrophe at Science and Games, but the good thing about Quaker schools is that they encourage you in those subjects for which you show an aptitude.
Richard Rodney Bennett

Life isn't like coursework, baby. It's one damn essay crisis after another.
Boris Johnson
Whenever you take a step forward, you are bound to disturb something. You disturb the air as you go forward, you disturb the dust, the ground. You trample upon things. When a whole society moves forward, this trampling is on a much bigger scale;

Mitch Landrieu
It is said that love makes the world go 'round - the announcement lacks verification. It's wind from the dinner horn that does it.
O. Henry
Quite a few musicians came to our house. And my ma took me to hear many more, hoping to encourage in me a love of music. But she wouldn't consent to my having music lessons, for she feared I might end up as she had done - unable to play except from paper.
Mary Lou Williams
When the world has changed and the rivers run dry ad the forests grow brown will we realize that we don't run the world. We must understand that Nature is what helped us into this beautiful planet, so we must help her in return.
Veronica White
Differences of habit and language are nothing at all if our aims are identical and our hearts are open.
J.K. Rowling
To those of us who often procrastinate on the decision we feel intimidated by lack of education or any area of weakness. I relieve you with this statement: It is not how much you know that arms you with the tools of great decision making, but rather how much you ask. Ask questions.

David Herbert Lawrence
I love to see, when leaves depart, The clear anatomy arrive, Winter, the paragon of art, That kills all forms of life and feeling Save what is pure and will survive.
Roy Campbell
History overflows time. Love overflows the allowance of the world. All the vessels overflow, and no end or limit stays put. Every shakable thing has got to be shaken. In a sense, nothing that was ever lost in Port William ever has been replaced. In another sense, nothing is ever lost, and we are compacted together forever, even by our failures, our regrets, and our longings.
Wendell Berry

Albert Einstein
The robb'd that smiles, steals something from the thief
She was beautiful, with a beauty so severe and so solitary that at first it was startling. Ah! If only there were two of me, she thought, one doing the talking and one listening, one living and one watching, how I would love myself. I'd envy no one.
Simone de Beauvoir
Aging in women is 'unbeautiful' since women grow more powerful with time, and since the links between generations of women must always be broken.
Naomi Wolf
Cruel', O'Kelly laughed, 'it's cruel to tell children the truth. If anything convinces me of God's mercy, then it's his gift of making us unable to lie.
Yevgeny Zamyatin
That is an artist as I love artists, modest in his needs: he really wants only two things, his bread and his art - panem et Circen.
