Home is the nicest word there is.
Poetry is the music of the soul, and, above all, of great and feeling souls.
Voltaire
A lot of baby boomers are baby bongers.
Kevin Nealon
I'm interested in anything about revolt, disorder, chaos, especially activity that appears to have no meaning. It seems to me to be the road toward freedom.
Jim Morrison
Stories can conquer fear, you know. They can make the heart bigger.
Ben Okri
Man is not made for defeat.
Ernest Hemingway
To be perfectly honest, I think that as I'm growing older, I'm just growing more impatient. I'll be very happy if at some point people say, 'Michael's grown wiser and softer in his old age.' But we'll have to wait and see what my next project is.
Michael Haneke
Though the doctors treated him, let his blood, and gave him medications to drink, he nevertheless recovered.
Leo Tolstoy
I live very normally, I go out with my friends, we go to the movies, I queue, we go to restaurants.
Catherine Deneuve
Choose your life's mate carefully. From this one decision will come 90 percent of all your happiness or misery.
H. Jackson Brown, Jr.
Leadership must be likeable, affable, cordial, and above all emotional. The fashion of authoritarian leadership is gone. Football is about life. You can't be angry all day.
Vicente del Bosque
Now very much against her will, she thought of the way Jace had looked at her then, the blaze of faith in his eyes, his belief in her. He had always thought she was strong. He had showed it in everything he did, in every look and every touch. Simon had faith in her too, yet when he'd held her, it had been as if she were something fragile, something made of delicate glass. But Jace had held her with all the strength he had, never wondering if she could take it--he'd known she was as strong has he was.
Cassandra Clare
You have to be able to accept failure to get better.
LeBron James
I want to tell my jokes. I want to have time with my children. I want to entertain people. And at one point, I'll walk away from show business. But I don't want to walk away empty-handed.
Dave Chappelle
No people find each other more absurd than lovers
C.S. Lewis
Chance gives rise to thoughts, and chance removes them no art can keep or acquire them.
Blaise Pascal
The Geezer album, Black Science, had a lot of keyboards and it did not work.
Geezer Butler
I went to interview some of these early Jewish colonial zealots written off in those days as mere 'fringe' elements and found that they called themselves or it sounded just as bad in English 'The Bloc of the Faithful.' Why not just say 'Party of God' and have done with it? At least they didn't have the nerve to say that they stole other people's land because their own home in Poland or Belarus had been taken from them. They said they took the land because god had given it to them from time immemorial. In the noisome town of Hebron, where all of life is focused on a supposedly sacred boneyard in a dank local cave, one of the world's less pretty sights is that of supposed students toting submachine guns and humbling the Arab inhabitants. When I asked one of these charmers where he got his legal authority to be a squatter, he flung his hand, index finger outstretched, toward the sky.
Christopher Hitchens
It was nice to hear the voices of little children at play, provided you took care to be far enough away not to hear what they were actually saying.
Terry Pratchett
But I don't need to use politics as a way of making money.
Imran Khan
Best friend, my well-spring in the wilderness!
George Eliot
I took the dog out for a walk tonight, and together we wandered across the meadow next door. It was a warm summer's night, dark, and moonless. There were a handful of fireflies flickering intermittently, some so close to me I could see they were burning green as they flew, and some further away, who seemed to be flashing white.And in the sky above them a continual roil of distant summer lightning (the storm distant enough that it was silent) burned and flashed and illuminated the clouds. It seemed as if the lightning bugs were talking to the lightning, in a perfect call and response of flash and counterflash. I watched the sky and the meadow flash and flash while the dog walked ahead of me, and realised that I was perfectly happy...
Neil Gaiman
Perhaps the most delightful friendships are those in which there is much agreement, much disputation, and yet more personal liking.
The world is starving for original and decisive leadership.
Bryant McGill
Friendships begin with liking or gratitude roots that can be pulled up.
Worldly faces never look so worldly as at a funeral. They have the same effect of grating incongruity as the sound of a coarse voice breaking the solemn silence of night.
It's them as take advantage that get advantage I this world.
A toddling little girl is a center of common feeling which makes the most dissimilar people understand each other.
I have no fear of photography as long as it cannot be used in heaven and in hell.
Edvard Munch
Personality is the most important thing to an actress's success.
Mae West
Consequences are unpitying.
Breed is stronger than pasture.
It took us three years to build the NeXT computer. If we'd given customers what they said they wanted, we'd have built a computer they'd have been happy with a year after we spoke to them - not something they'd want now.
Steve Jobs
Children demand that their heroes should be freckleless, and easily believe them so: perhaps a first discovery to the contrary is less revolutionary shock to a passionate child than the threatened downfall of habitual beliefs which makes the world seem to totter for us in maturer life.
When two people are really happy about one another, one can generally assume that they are mistaken.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Apple's market share is bigger than BMW's or Mercedes's or Porsche's in the automotive market. What's wrong with being BMW or Mercedes?
For what we call illusions are often, in truth, a wider vision of past and present realities --a willing movement of a man's soul with the larger sweep of the world's forces --a movement towards a more assured end than the chances of a single life.
And as for our future, one will hardly find us again on the paths of those Egyptian youths who endanger temples by night, embrace statues, and want by all means to unveil, uncover, and put into a bright light whatever is kept concealed for good reasons. N
Friedrich Nietzsche
Our impartiality is kept for abstract merit and demerit, which none of us ever saw.
We must not be enemies. Though passion may have strained, it must not break our bonds of affection. The mystic chords of memory, stretching from every battlefield and patriot grave, to every living heart and hearth-stone, all over this broad land, wi
Abraham Lincoln
Strange, that some of us, with quick alternate vision, see beyond our infatuations, and even while we rave on the heights, behold the wide plain where our persistent self pauses and awaits us.
