Be good and you will be lonesome.
The real amazing thing about all of this is I think I've maintained the mentality of a musician throughout it all, which I'm proudest of. And I'm still playing on people's records and singing on people's records.
Vince Gill
No occupation is so delightful to me as the culture of the earth, and no culture comparable to that of the garden.
Thomas Jefferson
Well, Steve Vai joined my dad's band right around the time when I actually started playing guitar. So he gave me a couple of lessons on fundamentals, and gave me some scales and practice things to work on. But I pretty much learned everything by ear.
Dweezil Zappa
He that reads and grows no wiser seldom suspects his own deficiency, but complains of hard words and obscure sentences, and asks why books are written which cannot be understood.
Samuel Johnson
Fear is stupid. So are regrets.
Marilyn Monroe
You can trust a Neil Simon script. Every dot. Every dash that pause means something. He takes all the jokes out, practically.
Hector Elizondo
I am sure that the sad days and happenings were rare, and that I lived the joyous and careless life of other children but just because the happy days were so habitual to me they made no impression upon my mind, and I can no longer recall them.
Pierre Loti
The sole social evil is darkness; humanity is identity, for all men are made of the same clay.
Victor Hugo
Just because I don't believe in YOUR God doesn't mean I don't believe in God. I just choose not to be bound by the limits of your imagination or those of your ancestors.
Steve Maraboli
Why doesn't the fattest man in the world become a hockey goalie?
Steven Wright
A lot of people have great hope, and a lot of people who have great hope live. And, some of them who have great hope die. So it's not that hope is going to save you.
Elizabeth Edwards

Jesse Jackson
It is the food which you furnish to your mind that determines the whole character of your life.
Emmet Fox
It's human nature to be curious about people, and to be more curious about young people than old people. We want to cheer something on at the same time we want to tear it down. That's just so normal.
Amy Grant
It's amazing to see things that are suggested in the book fully developed and so brilliantly realized through the artistry of the designers.
Suzanne Collins
I believe in signs....what we need to learn is always there before us, we just have to look around us with respect
Paulo Coelho
It is not because the truth is too difficult to see that we make mistakes... we make mistakes because the easiest and most comfortable course for us is to seek insight where it accords with our emotions - especially selfish ones.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
Jesus Christ
I don't want to have kids for like 10 years. I still have a lot to do. I don't even know if I could handle a dog right now. I'm so not ready. Someday I'll be a mom but not until I'm in my 30s.
Avril Lavigne
the art of writing has for backbone some fierce attachment to an idea. It is on the back of an idea, something believed in with conviction or seen with precision and thus compelling words to a shape.You have not finished with it because you have read it, any more than friendship is ended because it is time to part. Life wells up and alters and adds. Even things in a book-case change if they are alive; we find ourselves wanting to meet them again; we find them altered. So we look back upon essay after essay by Mr. Beerbohm, knowing that, come September or May, we shall sit down with them and talk.
Virginia Woolf
I come from pioneer stock, developers of the West, people who went out into the wilderness and set up home with nothing but a pair of oxen.
Joni Mitchell

Tony Campolo
I was the official wedding photographer at one of my best friends' weddings. Fortunately she was one of the most easygoing brides ever, so she made it easy for me.
Natalie Coughlin
The only men who aren't in fear of women's reactions are usually men who aren't born or who are dead.

Hay tanto de gratitud o de vanidad en casi todos los defectos, que no es cauto abandonarse de ellos.
Jane Austen
The slave begins by demanding justice and ends by wanting to wear a crown. He must dominate in his turn.
Albert Camus
Keep on sowing your seed, for you never know which will grow -- perhaps it all will.
Albert Einstein
A purely objective viewpoint does not exist in the cosmos or in politics.
Howard Fineman
Current theories on the creation of the Universe state that, if it were created at all and didn't just start, as it were, unofficially, it came to being between ten and twenty thousand million years ago. By the same token the earth itself is generally supposed to be about four and a half thousand million years old.These dates are incorrect.Medieval Jewish scholars put the date of the Creation at 3760BC. Greek Orthodox theologians put Creation as far back as 5508BC.These suggestions are also incorrect.Archbishop James Usher (1580-1656) published Annales Veteris et Novi Testamenti in 1654, which suggested that the Heaven and the Earth were created in 4004BC. One of his aides took the calculation further, and was able to announce triumphantly that the Earth was created on Sunday the 21st of October, 4004BC, at exactly 9.00 a.m., because God liked to get work done early in the morning while he was feeling fresh.This too was incorrect. By almost a quarter of an hour.The whole business with the fossilized dinosaur skeletons was a joke the paleontologists haven't seen yet.
Terry Pratchett
And when I look at my mother, I reflect on her strength and endurance. She's cranky sometimes, but she is lovable and loving. I'd be happy to be there at 86.

Today, you have the opportunity to transcend from a disempowered mindset of existence to an empowered reality of purpose-driven living. Today is a new day that has been handed to you for shaping. You have the tools, now get out there and create a masterpiece.
After you start learning all about the mechanics of piloting a riverboat, you stop seeing all the pretty sunsets and you start thinking about the weather.
John Hartford

Martin Luther King Jr.
My beauty icons are women whose images are self-created.
Dita Von Teese
The American way was for commerce, personal relationships, and religion to be voluntary. No one was forced to participate in something he didn't want.
