It is easy to make promises - it is hard work to keep them.
I hope to make people realize how totally helpless animals are, how dependent on us, trusting as a child must that we will be kind and take care of their needs.
James Herriot
The greatest work of art about New York? The question seems nebulous. The city's magic and majesty are distilled in the photographs of Alfred Stieglitz and Paul Strand.
Jerry Saltz
We live in this world like a child who enters a room where a clever person is speaking. The child did not hear the beginning of the speech, and he leaves before the end; and there are certain things which he hears but does not understand.
Leo Tolstoy
In both business and personal life, I've always found that travel inspires me more than anything else I do. Evidence of the languages, cultures, scenery, food, and design sensibilities that I discover all over the world can be found in every piece of my jewelry.
Ivanka Trump
There is little of the true philosophic spirit in Aquinas. He does not, like the Platonic Socrates, set out to follow wherever the argument may lead.
Bertrand Russell
Whether you come from heaven or hell, what does it matter, O Beauty!
Charles Baudelaire
The Holy Spirit can't save saints or seats. If we don't know any non-Christians, how can we introduce them to the Savior?
Paul Little
The test of a man or woman's breeding is how they behave in a quarrel.
George Bernard Shaw
Some people think that God peers over the balcony of heaven trying to find anybody who is enjoying life. And when He spots a happy person, He yells, Now cut that out! That concept of God should make us shudder because it's blasphemous!
Even voting for the right is doing nothing for it. It is only expressing to men feebly your desire that it should prevail. A wise man will not leave the right to the mercy of chance, nor wish it to prevail through the power of the majority. There is but little virtue in the action of masses of men.
Henry David Thoreau
Has it ever struck you that the vast majority of the will of God for your life has already been revealed in the Bible? That is a crucial thing to grasp.
I'm one of five kids and we lived on a massive farm in New South Wales with my mum and dad.
Abbie Cornish
I was frustrated out of my mind, trying to figure out the will of God. I was doing everything but getting into the presence of God and asking Him to show me.
I need to develop a car and engineer a car in a position that feels comfortable for me, and I don't think anyone can do a better job than I can in that position. The problem for me is if I can't get the car there I do struggle more than some.
Jenson Button
I regard myself as a soldier, though a soldier of peace.
Mahatma Gandhi
Others think it's a choice between doing what we want to do and being happy, and doing what God wants us to do and being miserable.
A seared conscience is one whose warning voice has been suppressed and perverted habitually, so that eventually instead of serving as a guide, it only confirms the person in his premeditatedly evil course.
Robert J. Little
There is no try. There is only do.
John Green
Never let an inventor run a company. You can never get him to stop tinkering and bring something to market.
Royal Little
We don't watch the film anymore because we've seen it so many times, so we'll introduce it, walk out and we'll come back in right about when I wake up in the morning and walk over to the shop and everything's changed.
Simon Pegg
There is no such thing as a perfect leader either in the past or present, in China or elsewhere. If there is one, he is only pretending, like a pig inserting scallions into its nose in an effort to look like an elephant.
Liu ShaoCh'I
After spending many years in Wall Street and after making and losing millions of dollars I want to tell you this: It never was my thinking that made the big money for me. It always was my sitting.
Jesse Livermore
I determined never to stop until I had come to the end and achieved my purpose.
David Livingstone
Nothing earthly will make me give up my work in despair.
I will place no value on anything I have or may possess except in relation to the kingdom of Christ.
I will go anywhere, provided it be forward.
The more wit the less courage.
Thomas Fuller
Using your mind is a faster method to getting what you want. I mean, all you have to do is sit there. What could be easier?
Stephen Richards
Fear God and work hard.
We were all born equal, but where we are in life now is of our own making.
What a squalid and irresponsible little profession it is. Nothing prepares you for how bad Fleet Street really is until it craps on you from a great height.
Ken Livingstone
Prosperity or egalitarianism -- you have to choose. I favor freedom -- you never achieve real equality anyway: you simply sacrifice prosperity for an illusion.
Mario Vargas Llosa
Eroticism has its own moral justification because it says that pleasure is enough for me; it is a statement of the individual's sovereignty.
My ideas flow so rapidly that I have not time to express them??by which means my letters sometimes convey no ideas at all to my correspondents.
Jane Austen
No matter how ephemeral it is, a novel is something, while despair is nothing.
There is an incompatibility between literary creation and political activity.
It isn't true that convicts live like animals: animals have more room to move around.
One important key to success is self-confidence. An important key to self-confidence is preparation.
Arthur Ashe
You've got to take the initiative and play your game. In a decisive set, confidence is the difference.
Chris Evert Lloyd
Government alone cannot solve the problems we deal with in our correctional facilities, treatment centers, homeless shelters and crisis centers - we need our faith-based and community partners.
