Books have led some to learning and others to madness.
Petrarch
What people forget is that the most radical thing about Obama is that he was the first black man in history to imagine that he could become president, who was able to make other Americans believe it as well.

Jan Schakowsky
I used to be a real prince charming if I went on a date with a girl. But then I'd get to where I was likely to have a stroke from the stress of keeping up my act. I've since learned the key to a good date is to pay attention on her.
Matthew Perry
I've had at least my share of tragedy, but I have had far more than my share of happiness.
Pierre Salinger
Trust is built with consistency.
Lincoln Chafee
Bulls can do nothing to demand justice. They can only defend themselves as best they can in a fight with a pre-determined ending and die never knowing why they were forced to endure such a painful and prolonged death. It's up to us, as a civilized society, to call for an end to the Running of the Bulls and bullfighting.
Ingrid Newkirk
There is just no reason why the richest nation in the world can't provide health care to all its people.
Christine Gregoire
Virtue is not photogenic. What is it to be a nice guy? To be nothing, that's what. A big fat zero with a smile for everybody.

The cottage garden most for use designed, Yet not of beauty destitute.
Charlotte Smith

Blues are the songs of despair, but gospel songs are the songs of hope.
Mahalia Jackson
While I've had a great distaste for what's usually called song in modern poetry or for what's usually called music, I really don't think of speech as so far from song.
David Antin
The British were indeed very far superior to the Americans in every respect necessary to military operations, except the revivified courage and resolution, the result of sudden success after despair.
Mercy Otis Warren
You may choose your words like a connoisseur, And polish it up with art, But the word that sways, and stirs, and stays, Is the word that comes from the heart.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
But we got up there and decided to stick to this mix of power chords and funk and that's where it really started for us. In having the courage to take that decision. To take a gamble not just with our music but our lives.
Michael Hutchence
Disco is music for dancing, and people will always want to dance.
Giorgio Moroder
The Southern slave would obey God in respect to marriage, and also to the reading and studying of His word. But this, as we have seen, is forbidden him.
Gerrit Smith

Angela Merkel
It was not possible to broadcast any of that because of an agreement between Jackson and the family. Our legal advice was that we could not broadcast it.
Martin Bashir
We recognise in the finished art, which is the result of these conditions, the best words in the best order - poetry and to put this essential poetry into different classes is impossible.

Desmond Tutu
Watching Bernadette Peters perform is like an acting class. She's amazing.
Jenna Ushkowitz
Most 'reality' shows aren't reality at all. They're game shows with no prize. Like 'Rock of Love.' His aren't genuine feelings. Then again, Bob Barker didn't really care whether or not you won the toaster. Sorry to shatter everyone's dreams.
Hal Sparks
Learning is always rebellion... Every bit of new truth discovered is revolutionary to what was believed before.
Margaret Lee Runbeck
Instead of focusing on that circumstances that you cannot change - focus strongly and powerfully on the circumstances that you can.

Thomas More
We are each of us angels with only one wing, and we can only fly by embracing one another.
Luciano De Crescenzo
Hip-hop is more about attaining wealth. People respect success. They respect big. They don't even have to like your music. If you're big enough, people are drawn to you.
Jay-Z
