Education is the foundation upon which we build our future.
To talk to someone who does not listen is enough to tense the devil.
Pearl Bailey, Talking to Myself
I don't do marriage. I think it's incredibly naff. And I don't like vulgar displays of ostentation.
Jenny Eclair
Difficult as it is really to listen to someone in affliction, it is just as difficult for him to know that compassion is listening to him.
Simone Weil, Waiting for God
I'm writing a book and working on my one-woman show, Learning To Be Human.
Shirley Knight
I think it is all a matter of love: the more you love a memory, the stronger and stranger it is.
Vladimir Nabokov, Strong Opinion
Some memories are realities, and are better than anything that can ever happen to one again.
Willa Cather, My Antonia
We do not know the true value of our moments until they have undergone the test of memory.
Georges Duhamel, The Heart's Dom
Do not trust your memory; it is a net full of holes; the most beautiful prizes slip through it.
The Bible tells us that God will meet all our needs. He feeds the birds of the air and clothes the grass with the splendor of lilies. How much more, then, will He care for us, who are made in His image? Our only concern is to obey the heavenly Father and leave the consequences to Him.
Charles Stanley
The revelation of thought takes men out of servitude into freedom.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
I was so happy that it filmed in New York not only because it's an amazing city, but also because a lot of people across the world somehow started to think about New York as a dangerous place to be and envisioned it as some war zone after that happened.
Alicia Witt
No country can act wisely simultaneously in every part of the globe at every moment of time.
Henry A. Kissinger
I was pretty much the government's poster boy for what I had done.
Kevin Mitnick
You know, why at the end of your life should you assemble thousands of pages of 'Why am I so sad, why am I so depressed?' Instead, assemble thousands of pages of why you're so content.
Elizabeth Gilbert
My fear was not of death itself, but a death without meaning.
Huey Newton
I want to do more documentaries and travel to places I haven't been. That is where I think I can be fulfilled.
Tatjana Patitz
The psychical, whatever its nature may be, is itself unconscious.
Sigmund Freud
In a sense it might even be said that our failure is to form habits: for, after all, habit is relative to a stereotyped world, and meantime it is only the roughness of the eye that makes two persons, things, situations, seem alike.
Walter Pater
I'm a good dad I spend a lot of time with my kids.
Steve Zahn
I got through my teen years by being a bit of a clown.
Diane Cilento
In the 'Hurt Locker' there's a lot of me in there, a sense of humor, a man of few words and a lot of action.
Jeremy Renner
I am happy being able to play roles with people my age because once you do something really mature there is no turning back.
Lindsay Lohan
Our strength is not just in the size of our defense budget, but in the size of our hearts, in the size of our gratitude for their sacrifice. And that's not just measured in words or gestures.
Jennifer M. Granholm
I'm really into extreme sports and just having fun.
Kellan Lutz
I know that I'm getting the real deal with my mom. I know that she's telling it like it is. She's proud of me when I've earned it and she's disappointed in me when I've earn that. She's really my spectrum on where I am as a person.
Lara Flynn Boyle
In my teens, I was never part of the cool crowd.
Jennifer Garner
I'm not claiming that football is the nation's salvation in this area, but it's one of them, one little thing that apparently has captured the imagination of a large sector of our society. But when football can't be a relatively pure outlet, a fun thing, then it hurts itself.
Pete Rozelle
I remember the time I was kidnapped and they sent a piece of my finger to my father. He said he wanted more proof.
Rodney Dangerfield
The primary victims of Katrina, those who were given the least help by the government, those rescued last or not at all, were overwhelmingly people of color largely hidden from the mainstream of society.
Jonathan Kozol
I had a really creative teacher at primary school. He used to get us doing things such as singing Spandau Ballet in drag in the choir, and I remember loving it.
Dominic Cooper
I tend to avoid televisions, politics, and places with velvet ropes.
Demetri Martin
He Robert Benchley and I had an office so tiny that an inch smaller and it would have been adultery.
Dorothy Parker
No government ought to be without censors and where the press is free, no one ever will. Chance is the pseudonym of God when he did not want to sign.
Anatole France
Enjoyed it! One more drink and I'd have been under the host.
Drink, and dance and laugh and lie, love the reeling midnight through, for tomorrow we shall die! (But, alas, we never do.)
It will make a weak man mighty. it will make a mighty man fall. It will fill your heart and hands or leave you with nothing at all. It's the eyes for the blind and legs for the lame. It is the love for hate and pride for shame. That's the power of the gospel.
Ben Harper
She runs the gamut of emotions from A to B.
My Botswana books are positive, and I've never really sought to deny that. They are positive. They present a very positive picture of the country. And I think that that is perfectly defensible given that there is so much written about Africa which is entirely negative.
Alexander McCall Smith
Art is a form of catharsis.
I have an idealistic view of science as a liberalising and progressive force for humanity.
