Good buildings come from good people, and all problems are solved by good design.
It's amazing that you can listen to any song and you can always tell when there's some substance beneath it and when there isn't. Even if it's poetically written and technically brilliant, I'd rather hear something that's all over the place but has some soul to it.
Teddy Thompson
Art has two constant, two unending concerns: It always meditates on death and thus always creates life. All great, genuine art resembles and continues the Revelation of St John.
Boris Pasternak
Yeah, we pretty much had a form and a shape by that time - a style - and I think one of the advantages of not having any relationship to any other puppeteer was that it gave me a reason to put those together myself for the needs of television.
Jim Henson

Arne Jacobsen
Theater is far superior to film in poetry, in abstract poetry.
Julie Taymor
Discrimination due to age is one of the great tragedies of modern life. The desire to work and be useful is what makes life worth living, and to be told your efforts are not needed because you are the wrong age is a crime.
Johnny Ball
The final wisdom of life requires not the annulment of incongruity but the achievement of serenity within and above it.
Reinhold Niebuhr
I think most artists create out of despair. The very nature of creation is not a performing glory on the outside, it's a painful, difficult search within.
Louise Berliawsky Nevelson
If I'd had good discipline, I might have gone into music.
Clint Eastwood
The Web as I envisaged it, we have not seen it yet. The future is still so much bigger than the past.
Tim Berners-Lee
It's odd how violence and humor so often go together, isn't it?
Dan Simmons
The only way to ensure equality for women is to clearly declare it in our Constitution.
Carolyn Maloney
Look, when that crowd gets to cheering, when we know they're with us, when we know they like us, we play better. A hell of a lot better!
Bill Carlin
A salesman must also have flexible goals. You may say, I want to sell 10 accounts this week, and you sell five. You're ready to die. But, you tell yourself, Five isn't too bad. You know, next week maybe I'll sell 10.
Curtis Carlson
All kids need is a little help, a little hope and somebody who believes in them.
Magic Johnson
I consider a goal as a journey rather than a destination. And each year I set a new goal.
You've got to be success minded. You've got to feel that things are coming your way when you're out selling; otherwise, you won't be able to sell anything.
The path towards a free society has not been simple. There are tragic and glorious pages in our history.
Vladimir Putin
Only as long as a company can produce a desired, worthwhile, and needed product or service, and can command the public, will it receive the public dollar and succeed
Our minds can work for us or against us at any given moment. We can learn to accept and live with the natural psychological laws that govern us, understanding how to flow with life rather than struggle against it. We can return to our natural state of contentment.
Richard Carlson
My attitude is never to be satisfied, never enough, never.
Duke Ellington
The budget evolved from a management tool into an obstacle to management.
Frank C. Carlucci
Christians are supposed not merely to endure change, nor even to profit by it, but to cause it.
Harry Emerson Fosdick
I learned that, before you reach an objective, you must be ready with a new one, and you must start to communicate it to the organization. But it is not the goal itself that is important.
Jan Carlzon
Marriage to Fernando offered shelter and security, but the shackle was the price I'd pay.
Esther Williams
Problems are solved on the spot, as soon as they arise. No front-line employee has to wait for a supervisor's permission.
Poetry says the things that I can't say. I read a lot, but I never write it.
Trevor McDonald
An individual without information can't take responsibility. An individual with information can't help but take responsibility.
My imagination makes me human and makes me a fool it gives me all the world, and exiles me from it.
Ursula K. Le Guin
Set me a task in which I can put something of my very self, and it is a task no longer. It is joy and art.
Bliss Carman
Taste every fruit of every tree in the garden at least once. It is an insult to creation not to experience it fully. Temperance is wickedness.
Stephen Fry

Washington has to become an ally of business, not the opposition of business.
Mitt Romney
Blessed are the single-hearted, for they shall enjoy much peace. If you refuse to be hurried and pressed, if you stay your soul on God, nothing can keep you from that clearness of spirit which is life and peace. In that stillness you will know what His will is.
Amy Carmichael
Russia will occupy most of the good food lands of central Europe while we have the industrial portions. We must find some way of persuading Russia to play ball.
Henry L. Stimson
I build confidence when I practice a variety of shots - hitting it high or low, working the ball. A lot of golfers go to the range and just hit full shots. That doesn't build on-course confidence, because you won't always hit full shots out there. My confidence is built on knowing I can effectively work the ball in any circumstance.
JoAnne Carner
She concedes that she's the one she pleases.
Kim Carnes
The teacher who is indeed wise does not bid you to enter the house of his wisdom but rather leads you to the threshold of your mind.
Khalil Gibran
The General Order is always to maneuver in a body and on the attack; to maintain strict but not pettifogging discipline; to keep the troops constantly at the ready; to employ the utmost vigilance on sentry go; to use the bayonet on every possible occasion; and to follow up the enemy remorselessly until he is utterly destroyed.
