The human heart is not unchanging (nay, changes almost out of recognition in the twinkling of an eye)...
I could be happy doing something like architecture. It would involve another couple of years of graduate school, but that's what I studied in college. That's what I always wanted to do.
Parker Stevenson
Marriage, n: the state or condition of a community consisting of a master, a mistress, and two slaves, making in all, two.
Ambrose Bierce
To keep the record straight, it wasn't always John and Yoko. We've all accused one another of various business things we tend to be pretty paranoid by now, as you can imagine. There's a lot of money involved.
Paul McCartney
The only foes that threaten America are the enemies at home, and these are ignorance, superstition and incompetence.
Elbert Hubbard
An open mind, in questions that are not ultimate, is useful. But an open mind about the ultimate foundations either of Theoretical or of Practical Reason is idiocy. If a man's mind is open on these things, let his mouth at least be shut. He can say nothing to the purpose. Outside the Tao there is no ground for criticizing either the Tao or anything else.
C.S. Lewis
All the arguments which are brought to represent poverty as no evil show it evidently to be a great evil.
Samuel Johnson
The last thing one discovers in composing a work is what to put first.
Blaise Pascal
The days you work are the best days.
Georgia O'Keeffe
I've always been into sports and being physical.
Moon Bloodgood
Self-reverence, self-knowledge, self-control these three alone lead one to sovereign power.
Alfred Tennyson
My daughters, your daughters, our daughters deserve safety, protection, and the freedom to make their own choices about their personal lives and their physical selves.
Carre Otis
A woman knows very well that, though a wit sends her his poems, praises her judgment, solicits her criticism, and drinks her tea, this by no means signifies that he respects her opinions, admires her understanding, or will refuse, though the rapier is denied him, to run through the body with his pen.
Virginia Woolf
This much I knew and know: I was making myself hideously uncomfortable by not narrowing my attention to details of life which were immediately important, and by refusing to believe what my neighbors believed.
Kurt Vonnegut
In a gentle way, you can shake the world.
Mahatma Gandhi
A serious and good philosophical work could be written consisting entirely of jokes.
Ludwig Wittgenstein
I can forgive, but I cannot forget, is only another way of saying, I will not forgive. Forgiveness ought to be like a cancelled note - torn in two, and burned up, so that it never can be shown against one.
Henry Ward Beecher
If all the nations in the world are in debt, where did all themoney go?
Steven Wright
Faith is a dynamic and ever-changing process, not some fixed body of truth that exists outside our world and our understanding. God's truth may be fixed and unchanging, but our comprehension of that truth will always be partial and flawed at best.
Gene Robinson
Even in high school, I had friends that I didn't know were gay until years later. I'd find out on Facebook or something and be like, 'Oh, that explains some things,' or 'Wow, no wonder they were so cool.'
Kellan Lutz
Choice was dangerous: you had to forgo all other possibilities when you chose.
J.K. Rowling
A happy family is but an earlier heaven.
George Bernard Shaw
Some desire is necessary to keep life in motion, and he whose real wants are supplied must admit those of fancy.
It is not materialism that is the chief curse of the world, as pastors teach, but idealism. Men get into trouble by taking their visions and hallucinations too seriously.
H. L. Mencken
And we're seeing a higher level of consciousness and many more opportunities for people to challenge their present ways of thinking and move into a grander and larger experience of who they really are.
Neale Donald Walsch
Cowardice, as distinguished from panic, is almost always simply a lack of ability to suspend the functioning of the imagination.
Ernest Hemingway
There is no rule more invariable than that we are paid for our suspicions by finding what we suspect.
Henry David Thoreau
My life has no purpose, no direction, no aim, no meaning, and yet I'm happy. I can't figure it out. What am I doing right.
Charles Monroe Schulz
Give me a wildness whose glance no civilization can endure,-as if we lived on the marrow of koodoos devoured raw
I want to organize so that women see ourselves as people who are entitled to power, entitled to leadership.
Patricia Ireland
The way I see it, it doesn't matter what you believe just so you're sincere.
We talked about politics constantly in my family growing up in North Carolina. There were always debates. Being of Greek background, it's in our blood to drink coffee and talk politics.
Zach Galifianakis
It doesn't matter what you believe just so long as you're sincere.
God's great cosmic joke on the human race was requiring that men and women live together in marriage
Mark Twain
The truest greatness lies in being kind, the truest wisdom in a happy mind.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
Most people who ask for advice from others have already resolved to act as it pleases them.
Kahlil Gibran
I love the imagery of struggle. I sometimes wish I were suffering in a good cause, or risking my life for the good of others, instead of just being a gravely endangered patient. Allow me to inform you, though, that when you sit in a room with a set of other finalists, and kindly people bring a huge transparent bag of poison and plug it into your arm, and you either read or don't read a book while the venom sack gradually empties itself into your system, the image of the ardent solider is the very last one that will occur to you. You feel swamped with passivity and impotence: dissolving in powerlessness like a sugar lump in water.
Christopher Hitchens
Strike an average between what a woman thinks of her husband a month before she marries him and what she thinks of him a year afterward, and you will have the truth about him.
The most important human endeavour is striving for morality in our actions. Our inner balance and even our very existence depend on it. Only morality in our actions can give beauty and dignity to our lives.
Albert Einstein
We choose our joys and sorrows long before we experience them.
Kahlil Gibran, Sand and Foam
I've always tried to do my very best, and I want to be the very best age, whatever age I am.
