The most efficient way to live reasonably is every morning to make a plan of one's day and every night to examine the results obtained.
We should've been different breeds. There can only be one lion in a small cage. It's not important if the other lion is sleeping or crouching in the corner. The only important thing is that...it's a lion.
Seyoung Kim
Better the comfort of a lie than the absurdity of the truth.
Tanya Huff
The truth is, I initially became a singer-songwriter while still in my teens because it was the only way to guarantee that somebody on earth would sing the songs I was writing. Since then, I've performed just about everywhere: rock clubs, concerts halls, arenas, TV.
Rupert Holmes
She died on a windy gray day in March when the sky was full of darting crows and the world lay prostrate and defeated after winter. Peter Lake was at her side and it ruined him forever. It broke him as he had not ever imagined he could have been broken. He would never again be young, or able to remember what it was like to be young. What he had once taken to be pleasures would appear to him in his defeat as hideous and deserved punishments for reckless vanity.
Mark Helprin
Creationists eagerly seek a gap in present-day knowledge or understanding. If an apparent gap is found, it is assumed that God, by default, must fill it.
Richard Dawkins
Let us play hide and seek in a mountain which is like a women's back.
Santosh Kalwar
I did never know so full a voice issue from so empty a heart but the saying is true 'The empty vessel makes the greatest sound'.
William Shakespeare
Music takes us out of the actual and whispers to us dim secrets that startle our wonder as to who we are, and for what, whence, and whereto.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Don't despise empiric truth. Lots of things work in practice for which the laboratory has never found proof.
Martin H. Fischer
Live today as if you were going to live forever, for you surely shall.
Gordon B. Hinckley
I've got a wife, four kids, a business, and a baseball career.
Curt Schilling
Life is what happens when you're doing other things, right?
Abel Ferrara
allow me now to return to the cottagers, whose story excited in me such various feelings of indignation, delight, and wonder, but which all terminated in additional love and reverence for my protectors (for so I loved, in an innocent, half painful self-deceit, to call them).
Mary Shelley
I'm not sure. I did not set it up. I have never done a polygraph test in my life. I didn't know what to expect. I was just there to answer the questions that they put in front of me.
Rafael Palmeiro
the mind is a neural computer
Steven Pinker
The gospel is this: We are more sinful and flawed in ourselves than we ever dared believe, yet at the very same time we are more loved and accepted in Jesus Christ than we ever dared hope.
Timothy Keller
You can believe that he was taught to love and respect all mankind - but to fear no man.
Wellington Mara
I would challenge you to a battle of wits, but I see you are unarmed!
I like Wagner's music better than any other music. It is so loud that one can talk the whole time without hearing what one says. That is a great advantage.
Oscar Wilde
A strong and well-constituted man digests his experiences (deeds and misdeeds all included) just as he digests his meats, even when he has some tough morsels to swallow.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Remember your name. Do not lose hope ---what you seek will be found.
Neil Gaiman

John Green
I quite agree with Dr. Nordau's assertion that all men of genius are insane, but Dr. Nordau forgets that all sane people are idiots.
When you strike at a king, you must kill him
It is not true that people are naturally equal for no two people can be together for even a half an hour without one acquiring an evident superiority over the other.
Samuel Johnson
Only when he has attained a final knowledge of all things will man have come to know himself. For things are only the boundaries of man.
Justice is indispensably and universally necessary, and what is necessary must always be limited, uniform, and distinct
Imagining that future keeps you going, but you never do it. You just use the future to escape the present.
Stuff about me dating Kim Kardashian - I have no idea where that came from and all these other rumors. I don't think I'm that type.
Jeremy Lin
My religious beliefs teach me to feel as safe in battle as in bed. God has fixed the time of my death. I do not concern myself with that, but to be always ready whenever it may overtake me. That is the way all men should live, and all men would be equally brave.
Stonewall Jackson
Science brings to the light of day everything man had believed sacred. Technique takes possession of it and enslaves it.
Jacques Ellul
The study of science, dissociated from that of philosophy and literature, narrows the mind and weakens the power to love and follow the noblest ideals: for the truths which science ignores and must ignore are precisely those which have the deepest bearing on life and conduct.
John Lancaster Spalding
Russia has two generals in whom she can confide -Generals Janvier and Fevrier
Nicholas I
Logos and branding are so important. In a big part of the world, people cannot read French or English--but are great in remembering signs
Karl Lagerfeld

Lois Duncan
The powerful men in my life have always believed in me: my husband, my son.
Judy Collins
There is some fiction, in all fact; and some fact, in all fiction.
