If they don't give you a seat at the table, bring a folding chair.
In the experimental sciences, the epochs of the most brilliant progress are almost always separated by long intervals of almost absolute repose.
François Arago
To know and love one other human being is the root of all wisdom.
Evelyn Waugh
Uma virtude deve ser nossa invenção, nossa defesa e nossa necessidade pessoais: tomada em qualquer outro sentido, não passa de um perigo. Aquilo que não é uma condição vital é prejudicial ? vida: uma virtude que não existe senão por causa dum sentimento de respeito pela ideia de «virtude», como Kant a queria, é perigosa. A «virtude», o «dever», o «bem em si», o bem como carácter da impersonalidade do valor geral - quimeras onde se exprime a degenerescência, o último enfraquecimento da vida, a chinesice de Conisberga.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A man who is eating or lying with his wife or preparing to go to sleep in humility, thankfulness and temperance, is, by Christian standards, in an infinitely higher state than one who is listening to Bach or reading Plato in a state of pride.
C.S. Lewis
Scepticism is the first step towards truth.
Denis Diderot
I think human beings make life beautiful. There's a lot of beauty in everything. I think what makes life beautiful is the ability to acknowledge that.
Andrew McMahon
We love all kinds of music: We love pop music, we love rock music, we love R
Charles Kelley
I had perceived by experience, how that it was impossible to stablish the lay people in any truth, except the scripture were plainly laid before their eyes in their mother tongue, that they might see the process, order, and meaning of the text.
William Tyndale
There is the great lesson of 'Beauty and the Beast,' that a thing must be loved before it is lovable.
G.K. Chesterton
We all have a thirst for wonder. It's a deeply human quality. Science and religion are both bound up with it. What I'm saying is, you don't have to make stories up, you don't have to exaggerate. There's wonder and awe enough in the real world. Nature's a lot better at inventing wonders than we are.
Carl Sagan
I wanted to reach out and stroke her, to be gentle and tender towards her. Take care of her.
James Lusarde
My father worked for governments all his life as an engineer and public works director.
Edward Tufte
There is no telling what is going to happen in the music business in the next few years, hours, minutes, seconds. Giving artists the chance to produce and distribute their own material is great, very empowering. The technological changes that are happening so rapidly now, amongst all the opinions, are in truth, only two things, inevitable and unstoppable.
Pauley Perrette
This activist loves Oregon more than he loves life.
Tom McCall

Timothy Pina
Sovereign of beauty, like the spray she grows; Compass'd she is with thorns and canker'd bower. Yet, were she willing to be pluck'd and worn, She would be gather'd, though she grew on thorn.
Robert Greene
Please. Forgive me. One more chance, Blaire. I want this. I want you.
Abbi Glines
Doing science, particularly the synthesis of disparate ideas, is not as arcane as it is often made out to be. Discipline and taste play a vital role, but the activity is familiar to anyone who has made some effort to be creative.
John Henry Holland
You only have one day at a time to live, so live it and choose well!
Laura Boniello
There can be no freedom or beauty about a home life that depends on borrowing and debt.
Henrik Ibsen
The poor themselves can create a poverty-free world. All we have to do is to free them from the chains that we have put around them!
Muhammad Yunus
Yawns are not the only infectious things out there besides germs.Giggles can spread from person to person.So can blushing.But maybe the most powerful infectious thing is the act of speaking the truth.
Vera Nazarian
If there's an enduring theme in my work, it's probably the effects of class on American life.
Richard Russo
He wanted to leave the past a few hundred miles down the road, shake it off like dust. But that ws the problem with the past. It kept finding him.
Suzanne Woods Fisher
Skupljanje hrane nesumnjivo je bilo na prvom mjestu ženskih dužnosti budu?i da je taj zadatak održavao pleme na životu. Ni u jednom se trenutku pretpovijesne žene s djecom ili bez nje nisu oslanjale na svoje partnere, lovce, za nabavku hrane.
Rosalind Miles
I'm happy 'bout life. Still trying. I ain't giving up on life.
Leon Spinks
He winced at her efforts to mollify him. Why didn't she say she was disgusted with his behaviour, with his long absence, his infrequent superficial letters? And if she dis say it - would he defend himself? Would he give reasons, try to explain how meaningless every endeavour seemed to him? No. For then she would start crying again, he would tell her to stop being silly, she would ask for details, and he would tell her to mind her own business.
Rohinton Mistry
One of the great joys of science has to be turning a thought that surfaced one night over a few beers into a full-blown project.
Joe Roman
Everybody know death is inevitably coming, but it never fails to catch everybody by surprise everytime one is going
Hlovate
We should love, not fall in love, because everything that falls, gets broken.
Taylor Swift
I watched, hoping she wouldn't come out too broke. It's all you can do for people sometimes, no matter how much you love them.
Katie Crouch
I hate Brooklyn
Cassandra Clare
Perhaps there are just some things you leave behind when you choose a new life.
Andrew Davidson
Very often in everyday life one sees that by losing one's temper with someone who has already lost his, one does not gain anything but only sets out upon the path of stupidity. He who has enough self-control to stand firm at the moment when the other person is in a temper, wins in the end. It is not he who has spoken a hundred words aloud who has won; it is he who has perhaps spoken only one word.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Their eyes were dark and hard and glowing, with no fear in them, no kindness and no guilt.
Ayn Rand
My old man, he carries around the picture of the kid that came with the wallet.
Rodney Dangerfield
Those who expect to be both ignorant and free, expect what never was and never will be.
Thomas Jefferson
The very nastiest and coarsest, I can't tell you. It is not grief, not dullness, but much worse. It is as if all that was good in me had hidden itself, and only what is horrid remains.
Leo Tolstoy
When adults say, 'Teenagers think they are invincible' with that sly, stupid smile on their faces, they don't know how right they are. We need never be hopeless, because we can never be irreparably broken. We think that we are invincible because we are. We cannot be born, and we cannot die. Like all energy, we can only change shapes and sizes and manifestations. They forget that when they get old. They get scared of losing and failing. But that part of us greater than the sum of our parts cannot begin and cannot end, and so it cannot fail.
John Green
Every morning was a cheerful invitation to make my life of equal simplicity, and I may say innocence, with Nature herself.
Henry David Thoreau
