Why should we honour those that die upon the field of battle? A man may show as reckless a courage in entering into the abyss of himself.
Even in our day, science suspects beyond the Polar seas, at the very circle of the Arctic Pole, the existence of a sea which never freezes and a continent which is ever green.
H. P. Blavatsky
Compassion is sometimes the fatal capacity for feeling what it is like to live inside somebody else's skin. It is the knowledge that there can never really be any peace and joy for me until there is peace and joy finally for you too.
Frederick Buechner
I call religion a natural authority, but it has usually been conceived as a supernatural authority.
Herbert Read
Right is just and true.
Victor Hugo
He either fears his fate too much, Or his deserts are small, That dares not put it to the touch, To gain or lose it all.
James Graham
Cary Grant roles are ones I would love to have played, but I was never given any.
Ian Carmichael
For one of the first pressures that bear down on American girls is the pressure not only to be liked but to be everyone else. This initial feat of self-transformation often involves loosening one's grip on that quiet sense of inner self and hitching one's wagon to a single standard of beauty. The stress of leaping through that hoop insinuates itself into the young heart and soul with a vengeance, and insecurities go from being hard little buds of confusion to overripe, snarled and tyrannical fruits that hang on the vine as we age.
Debra Ollivier
Nothing is easier than self-deceit. For what each man wishes, that he also believes to be true.
Demosthenes
Home is the most popular, and will be the most enduring of all earthly establishments.
Channing Pollock
The better work men do is always done under stress and at great personal cost.
William Carlos Williams
My routines come out of total unhappiness. My audiences are my group therapy.
Joan Rivers
Intent not followed by action is an insult to your design. Decide what you want, create a plan, and get your ass out there.
