On the other hand, if there's an underlying core of poetry that I go to, I go to the sea. I've lived on the sea all my life. I live on the sea in Cape Breton.
The world is too dangerous for anything but truth and too small for anything but love.
William Sloane Coffin Jr.
It's like trying to describe what you feel when you're standing on the rim of the Grand Canyon or remembering your first love or the birth of your child. You have to be there to really know what it's like.
Jack Schmitt
One day, on tearing off some old bark, I saw two rare beetles, and seized one in each hand. Then I saw a third and new kind, which I could not bear to lose, so I popped the one which I held in my right hand into my mouth. Alas! it ejected some intensely acrid fluid, which burnt my tongue so that I was forced to spit the beetle out, which was lost, as was the third one.
Charles Darwin
Injustice is ABUSE...No matter who or where it's committed!? It must be stopped at all times!
Timothy Pina
Truth sits upon the lips of dying men, And falsehood, while I lived, was far from mine.
Matthew Arnold
I believe that all the important people in my life prior to 1982 were victimized by my illness.
Patty Duke
No. Take the heart first. Then you don't feel the cold so much. The pain so much. With the heart gone, there's no reason to stay your hand. Your eyes can look on death and not tremble. It's the heart that betrays us, makes us weep, makes us bury our friends when we should be marching ahead. It's the heart that sickens us at night and makes us hate who we are. It's the heart that sings old songs and brings memories of warm days.
Jeanette Winterson
Life is like a beautiful melody, only the lyrics are messed up.
Hans Christian Andersen
Like I said, TLC has enough of my life. I have to keep some of it for myself.
Genevieve Gorder
I love to be creative.
Michael Schenker
Ben Says: Never be pushed by your problems, be led by your dreams. No one can drive you crazy unless you give them the keys!
If you don't synthesize knowledge, scientific journals become spare-parts catalogues for machines that are never built.
Arthur R. Marshall
Beauty is in the ideal of perfect harmony which is in the universal being; truth the perfect comprehension of the universal mind. We individuals approach it through our own mistakes and blunders, through our accumulated experience, through our illumi
Rabindranath Tagore
There is an organic affinity between joyousness and tenderness, and their companionship in the saintly life need in no way occasion surprise.
William James
...as I already said, they didn't look like much--but beauty's in the eye of the beholder, isn't it?
Kate Morton
Solitude is not something you must hope for in the future. Rather, it is a deepening of the present, and unless you look for it in the present you will never find it.
Thomas Merton
All the beautiful waitresses existed like eternal responsibilities.
Spalding Gray
I've been very well remunerated for my talents over the years so I really don't need the public's money.
George Michael
A doctor must work eighteen hours a day and seven days a week. If you cannot console yourself to this, get out of the profession.
Martin H. Fischer
On 'Van Halen,' I was a young punk, and everything revolved around the fastest kid in town, gunslinger attitude. But I'd say that at the time of 'Fair Warning,' I started concentrating more on songwriting. But I guess in most people's minds I'm just a gunslinger.
Eddie Van Halen
The love of freedom has been the quality of Western man.
Robinson Jeffers
We're uncomfortable about considering history as a science. It's classified as a social science, which is considered not quite scientific.
Jared Diamond
Do not wait for an opportunity to be all that you want to be.
Wallace D. Wattles
... keeping her wild-honey-and-chamomile-soaked hair from falling into her oatmeal-and-yogurt face mask
Emma McLaughlin
Love is like a good cake; you never know when it's coming, but you'd better eat it when it does!
C. JoyBell C.
In all of living, have much fun and laughter. Life is to be enjoyed, not just endured.
Gordon B. Hinckley
Me? Beautiful? I'm plain as cardboard. That may be how you see yourself, but the rest of the world would be hard to agree. You shine brighter than the Milky Way.Now there are those who might try to take that from you, but you don't have to give it away. Keep on shining Pattyn.And when the right young man comes along, he'll love you all the more for giftin' this sad planet with your light.
Ellen Hopkins
So cartooning, for me, is an honorable thing. It's pushing the envelope. It's the truth of something through exaggeration.
Bill Sienkiewicz
You can change a person's life in an instant; put him in a movie, and you start thinking differently, you want to be in another movie. It's like an addiction almost.
Dennis Farina
Hard is trying to rebuild yourself, piece by piece, with no instruction book, and no clue as to where all the important bits are supposed to go.
Nick Hornby
I might face death any minute now! But I should try not to put myself in harms' way as long as I can live. Of course it is not important if I die, because this is going to happen anyway. I know my purpose, my purpose is: How will my life or death impact the lives of others?
Samad Beh-Rang
Love is the key to the mystery. Love by its very nature is not selfish, but generous. It seeks not its own, but the good of others. The measure of love is not the pleasure it gives-that is the way the world judges it-but the joy and peace it can purchase for others.
Fulton J. Sheen
It is the search for the truth, not possession of the truth which is the way of philosophy. Its questions are more relevant than its answers, and every answer becomes a new question.
Karl Jaspers
...but don't tell me I'm not sensitive to beauty. That's my Achilles' heel, and don't you forget it. To me, everything is beautiful. Show me a pink sunset and I'm limp, by God...
J.D. Salinger
Whither in after life retired From brawling storms, From weary wind, With youthful fancy reinspired, We may hold converse with all forms Of the many-sided mind, And those whom passion hath not blinded, Subtle-thoughted, myriad-minded.
Alfred Tennyson
Since UFO stands for unidentified flying object, the word ufology means approximately knowledge about unknown flying objects, and is therefore a science whose content is void by definition. Similar considerations hold for parapsychology.
Lucio Russo
I love doubleheaders. That way I get to keep my uniform on longer.
Tommy Lasorda
Time is a watchful adversary, who waits enduringly for that merciless hour, hurrying to work the hands of separation.
Kelly Vang
I actually love working with accents. I don't know, something about it unlocks something in me. It makes me concentrate on getting into character a little more, helps me find a focus.
Kevin McKidd
I think the opportunity to deal with students and getting them properly oriented on science and theology and the relation between those is going to be important because science has been such an instrument used by the materialists to undermine the Christian faith and religious belief generally.
