I'm doing my best to raise my son and give him a nurturing, loving, and caring environment so he can grow up and be the best version of himself.
If you improve education by teaching for competence, eliminating schooling, and connecting with students, the test scores will improve.
William Glasser
It is well to give when asked but it is better to give unasked, through understanding.
Kahlil Gibran
Only those who look with the eyes of children can lose themselves in the object of their wonder.
Eberhard Arnold
As President Bush has said on numerous occasions, it is the government's role to create the conditions, the friendly environment, that will attract capital.
Donald Evans
A verse from the Veda says, 'What you see, you become.' In other words, just the experience of perceiving the world makes you what you are. This is a quite literal statement.
Deepak Chopra
Experience - the wisdom that enables us to recognise in an undesirable old acquaintance the folly that we have already embraced.
Ambrose Bierce
We have become aware of the responsibility for our attitude towards the dark pages in our history. We have understood that bad service is done to the nation by those who are impelling to renounce that past.
Aleksander Kwasniewski
Whatever we focus on is bound to expand. Where we see the negative, we call forth more negative. And where we see the positive, we call forth more positive. Having loved and lost, I now love more passionately. Having won and lost, I now win more soberly. Having tasted the bitter, I now savor the sweet.
Marianne Williamson
I really, specifically, love acting, and I think it's a really cool thing to be really indulgent and follow that. I have a lot of ambitions in life, but for the next few years, I just want to be an actor. That's a lucky opportunity, and that drives me to want to be good at that.
Kristen Stewart
Could we change our attitude, we should not only see life differently, but life itself would come to be different. Life would undergo a change of appearance because we ourselves had undergone a change of attitude.
Katherine Mansfield
I'm not unknown, yet I'm not super famous where I can't go anywhere.
Justin Guarini
Life is not a having and a getting, but a being and a becoming.
Matthew Arnold
Exhaust your worries and they will soon leave you.
Stephen Richards
The subject of history is the life of peoples and of humanity. To catch and pin down in words--that is, to describe directly the life, not only of humanity, but even of a single people, appears to be impossible.
Leo Tolstoy, War and Peace, Epil
Truth is I don't think God on a daily basis. I think politics, science.
Peter Mullan
There are no secrets to success. It is the result of preparation, hard work, and learning from failure.
Colin Powell
The reward of art is not fame or success but intoxication: that is why so many bad artists are unable to give it up.
Jean Cocteau
The fact that man knows right from wrong proves his intellectual superiority to other creatures; but the fact that he can do wrong proves his moral inferiority to any creature that cannot.
Mark Twain, What Is Man?
I'm constantly learning, and that is the greatest gift of life in my opinion - to always be learning and growing.
Kristin Chenoweth
A mature person is one who does not think only in absolutes, who is able to be objective even when deeply stirred emotionally, who has learned that there is both good and bad in all people and in all things, and who walks humbly and deals charitably with the circumstances of life, knowing that in this world no one is all-knowing and therefore all of us need both love and charity.
Eleanor Roosevelt
The true humanist maintains a just balance between sympathy and selection.
Irving Babbitt
Agreeable society is the first essential in constituting the happiness and of course the value of our existence
Thomas Jefferson
The excellence of a gift lies in its appropriateness rather than in its value.
Charles Dudley Warner
CNN found that Hillary Clinton is the most admired woman in America. Women admire her because she's strong and successful. Men admire her because she allows her husband to cheat and get away with it.
Jay Leno
Of course, it is possible for any citizen with time to spare, and a canny eye, to work out what is actually going on, but for the many there is not time, and the network news is the only news even though it may not be news at all but only a series of flashing fictions...
Gore Vidal, The Decline and Fall
It is an axiom in my mind, that our liberty can never be safe but in the hands of the people themselves, and that too of the people with a certain degree of instruction. This it is the business of the State to effect, and on a general plan.
Security... it's simply the recognition that changes will take place and the knowledge that you're willing to deal with whatever happens.
Harry Browne
No mans error becomes his own Law; nor obliges him to persist in it.
Thomas Hobbes, Leviathan, part 2
Where, after all, do universal human rights begin? In small places, close to home - so close and so small that they cannot be seen on any maps of the world. Yet they are the world of the individual person; the neighborhood he lives in; the school or college he attends; the factory, farm, or office where he works. Such are the places where every man, woman, and child seeks equal justice, equal opportunity, equal dignity without discrimination. Unless these rights have meaning there, they have little meaning anywhere. Without concerted citizen action to uphold them close to home, we shall look in vain for progress in the larger world.
And we should consider every day lost on which we have not danced at least once. And we should call every truth false which was not accompanied by at least one laugh.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Listen, buddy, if I could tell you in a minute what I did, it wouldn't be worth the Nobel Prize.
Richard Feynman, Joking when ask
Religion has done love a great service by making it a sin.
Anatole France
Truth sits upon the lips of dying men.
Chase after the truth like all hell and you'll free yourself, even though you never touch its coattails.
Clarence Darrow
I guess as long as people think of me for different ages, I'll trust their opinion. I remember noticing one year that Michelle Monaghan played 34 and 19, so I've kind of clung to that as my justification that I can be Jake Gyllenhaal's wife and a freshman in college in the same year.
Anna Kendrick
Wherever slavery is, it has been first introduced without law. The oldest laws we find concerning it, are not laws introducing it; but regulating it, as an already existing thing.
Abraham Lincoln
Journalism is literature in a hurry.
At the age when Bengali youth almost inevitably writes poetry, I was listening to European classical music.
Satyajit Ray
There is no such thing as perpetual tranquility of mind, while we live here; because life itself is but motion, and can never be without desire, nor without fear, no more than without sense.
Thomas Hobbes
In America, as opposed to the old country, success was based on merit.
Rand Paul
