Early in life I had noticed that no event is ever correctly reported in a newspaper.
There is the truth of history, and there is the truth of what a person remembers. As {she} sat at the edge of {the lake}, memory blossoms floated unbounded, as though breathed, no words spoken. Like birds that fly across national borders, between countries at war at each other.
Rebecca Wells
But, my God, it's so beautiful when the boy smiles
Anna Nalick
What it means to be human is to bring up your children in safety, educate them, keep them healthy, teach them how to care for themselves and others, allow them to develop in their own way among adults who are sane and responsibile, who know the value of the world and not its economic potential. It means art, it means time, it means all the invisibles never counted by the GDP and the census figures. It means knowing that life has an inside as well as an outside. And I think it means love.
Jeanette Winterson
To deal with history [life] means to abandon one's self to chaos but to retain a belief in the ordination and the meaning. It is a very serious task.
Hermann Hesse
The reality is that we're all in the wilderness, and we have to survive on our own, and things constantly change and if we don't accept that, then we're just trying to fool ourselves. But the beauty of wilderness is that sometimes you can wake up in the morning and feel so sweet and whole.

Simone Weil
A desire not to butt into other people's business is at least eighty percent of all human wisdom.
Robert A. Heinlein
The composition of Shakespeare is a forest, in which oaks extend in the air, interspersed sometimes with weeds and brambles, and sometimes giving shelting to myrtles and to roses; filling the eye with awful pomp, and gratifying the mind with endless diversity.
Samuel Johnson
If you like overheads, you'll love PowerPoint.
Edward Tufte
When you're in the car, how well you do is down to you and you alone-no band, no management, no marketing.
Nick Mason
In some sense, gravity does not exist; what moves the planets and the stars is the distortion of space and time.
Michio Kaku
Y cada vez, después de la pasión satisfecha y del amor renovado nos dormimos muy juntos sin importarnos dónde empieza uno ni termina el otro, ni de quién son estas manos o estos pies, en tan perfecta complicidad que nos encontramos en los sueños y al otro dÃa no sabemos quién soñó a quién, y cuando uno se mueve entre las sábanas el otro se acomoda en los ángulos y curvas, y cuando uno suspira el otro suspira y cuando uno despierta el otro despierta también.
Isabel Allende
I came here to tell you the truth, the good, the bad and the ugly.
Oliver North
When I see a beautiful shell like that I can't help feeling a regret about what's inside it.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Maybe being married is talking to oneself with one's other self listening.
Ruth Rendell
That sometimes human beings have to just sit in one place and, like, hurt. That you will become way less concerned with what other people think of you when you realize how seldom they do. That there is such a thing as raw, unalloyed, agendaless kindness. That it is possible to fall asleep during an anxiety attack. That concentrating on anything is very hard work.
David Foster Wallace
I - will have poetry in my life. And adventure. And love. Love above all.
Marc Norman
A girl expecting rescue never learns to save herself
Kate Morton
It has been an interesting road, but I wouldn't trade any of it for the world, because I feel like all of those instances in my life I felt molded me and strengthened me and made me who I am.
Drew Brees
No. Don't never go looking for love girl. Just wait. It'll come. Like the rain fallin' from the heaven, it'll come. Just don't never give up on love.
Sonia Sanchez
There is no 'the truth,' 'a truth'--truth is not one thing, or even a system. It is an increasing complexity.
Adrienne Rich
In the strange dreams of man, there are stories that are unknowingly being built by them. Mine are among the billions that remain untold.
Brandon Benevides
Religion is a subject on which I have ever been most scrupulously reserved. I have considered it as a matter between every man and his Maker in which no other, and far less the public, had a right to intermeddle.
Thomas Jefferson
I'll have no husband, if you be not he.
William Shakespeare
I don't want whatever I want. Nobody does. Not really. What kind of fun would it be if I just got everything I ever wanted just like that, and it didn't mean anything? What then?
Neil Gaiman
I have studied him (Muhammad PBUH) - the wonderful man and in my opinion for from being an anti-Christ, he must be called the Savior of Humanity. I believe that if a man like him were to assume the dictatorship of the modern world, he would succeed in solving its problems in a way that would bring it much needed peace and happiness.
George Bernard Shaw
It's all mirror, mirror on the wall because beauty is power, the same way money is power, the same way a gun is power.

Read a lot, write a lot is the great commandment.
Stephen King
There is one vice of which no man in the world is free; which every one in the world loathes when he sees it in someone else; and of which hardly any people, except Christians, ever imagine that they are guilty themselves. I have heard people admit that t
C.S. Lewis
It takes a fearless, unflinching love and deep humility to accept the universe as it is. The most effective way he knew to accomplish that, the most powerful tool at his disposal, was the scientific method, which over time winnows out deception. It can't give you absolute truth because science is a permanent revolution, always subject to revision, but it can give you successive approximations of reality.
Ann Druyan
I feel like 35. At 35 you're old enough to know something and young enough to look forward to what you can do with the knowledge. So I stayed at 35!
Michael Caine
There is never vulgarity in a whole truth, however commonplace. It may be unimportant or painful. It cannot be vulgar. Vulgarity is only in concealment of truth, or in affectation.
