Enthusiasm is the mother of effort, and without it nothing great was ever achieved.
The shortest distance between two points is under construction.
Noelie Alito
Ecology is rather like sex -- every new generation likes to think they were the first to discover it.
Michael Allaby
I tell you, that dragon's the most horrible animal I've ever met, but the way Hagrid goes on about it, you'd think it was a fluffy little bunny rabbit.
J.K. Rowling
I ended the war a horse ahead.
Nathan Bedford Forrest
Yearn to understand first and to be understood second.
Beca Lewis
The Christian is not one who has gone all the way with Christ. None of us has. The Christian is one who has found the right road.
Charles L. Allen
Why should you be content with so little? Why shouldn't you reach out for something big?
The true artist will let his wife starve, his children go barefoot, his mother drudge for his living at seventy, sooner than work at anything but his art
George Bernard Shaw
But one of the amazing things about documentary is that you can remake it every time you make one. There is no rule about how a documentary film has to be made.
Errol Morris
My revenue is the silly cheat
William Shakespeare
I believe in the America people's ability to govern themselves. If government would just get out of the way and allow them to lead their lives as they choose, they will succeed.
Jesse Ventura
I took a wrong turn on the way to the bathroom and found myself in a beautifully proportioned room I had never seen before, containing a really rather magnificent collection of chamberpots. When I went back to investigate more closely, I discovered that the room had vanished. But I must keep an eye out for it. Possibly it is only accessible at five thirty in the morning. Or it may only appear at the quarter moon - or when the seeker has an exceptionally full bladder.
What might have been can be with Cosmic Ordering.
Stephen Richards
You can
Scott Sorrell
Any plan imperfectly executed is better than no plan perfectly executed.
Let's pretend for just one moment that could actually happen. You close your eyes and I'll close mine and let's dream the same dream across the Atlantic, lighting up the darkness between us. Can you see it, Stu? Can you see us up there, shining in all the black?
Annabel Pitcher
The ultimate priority of humanity should not be to savour the power given to us, but rather to account for the according responsibility.
Harrison Christian, 1999 paper,
If you're not making mistakes, you're not taking risks, and that means you're not going anywhere. The key is to make mistakes faster than the competition, so you have more changes to learn and win.
John W. Holt, Jr.
What is life, but the gentle effacement of a tree shedding its leaves?
Harrison Christian, 1995 newspap
The things you learn in maturity aren’t simple things such as acquiring information and skills. You learn not to engage in self-destructive behavior. You learn not to burn up energy in anxiety. You discover how to manage your tensions. You learn that self-pity and resentment are among the most toxic of drugs. You find that the world loves talent but pays off on character.
John Gardner
I have this theory about performers who last for a long time, and that is, if you break it down, music is not as big a part of it as personality and who you are. I think that we are all 3 people. I am who I think I am, I am who you think I am, and I am who I really am. The closer those 3 people are together the longer your career's gonna last. 'Cause people don't like to be fooled!
Kenny Rogers
I can't get my knickers in a twist about my age and ageing in an industry that caters to the ids of 14-year-olds.
Vera Farmiga
Thirty years ago, we were in a movie theater and thought it was so cool because we were finally delivered from the horrors of stained glass and wooden pews.
Bill Hybels
Equal rights for all, special privileges for none
Thomas Jefferson
Scouting rises within you and inspires you to put forth your best.
Juliette Gordon Low
I missed the future.
John Green
The wise thing is for us diligently to train ourselves to lie thoughtfully, judiciously; to lie with a good object, and not an evil one; to lie for others' advantage, and not our own; to lie healingly, charitably, humanely, not cruelly, hurtfully, maliciously; to lie gracefully and graciously, not awkwardly and clumsily; to lie firmly, frankly, squarely, with head erect, not haltingly, tortuously, with pusillanimous mien, as being ashamed of our high calling.
Mark Twain
You cannot travel within and stand still without.
James Lane Allen
I think women are foolish to pretend they are equal to men; they are far superior and always have been.
William Golding
Woman is a ray of God. She is not that earthly beloved: she is creative, not created.
Rumi
I will work to bring peace to everyone - whatever economic level - as long as you are Haitian.
Jean-Bertrand Aristide
It is Nature who makes our artists for us, though it may be Art who taught them their right mode of expression.
Oscar Wilde
When I think about the world I would like to leave to my daughter and the grandchildren I hope to have, it is a world that moves away from unequal, unstable, unsustainable interdependence to integrated communities - locally, nationally and globally - that share the characteristics of all successful communities.
William J. Clinton
Behind every successful man is a woman, behind her is his wife.
Groucho Marx
Don't let your history interfere with your destiny.
Steve Maraboli
Neither man nor woman is perfect or complete without the other. Thus, no marriage or family, no ward or stake is likely to reach its full potential until husbands and wives, mothers and fathers, men and women work together in unity of purpose, respecting and relying upon each other's strengths.
Sheri L. Dew
Saving our planet, lifting people out of poverty, advancing economic growth... these are one and the same fight. We must connect the dots between climate change, water scarcity, energy shortages, global health, food security and women's empowerment. Solutions to one problem must be solutions for all.
Ban Ki-moon
When families save, they can get through emergencies like a bad harvest or a medical emergency. But it's more than that. They can also plan for the future, gradually saving up for a small business or for their children's school tuition.
Jeff Raikes
I've never owned an Apple product. I like the fact that PCs are open architecture and not locked down like Apple products. I feel that Macs are also unjustifiably overpriced.
Oren Peli
I feel pretty good. My body actually looks like an old banana, but it's fine.
