I'm so fast that last night I turned off the light switch in my hotel room and was in bed before the room was dark.
The whole theory of modern education is radically unsound. Fortunately in England, at any rate, education produces no effect whatsoever. If it did, it would prove a serious danger to the upper classes, and probably lead to acts of violence.
Oscar Wilde
I am not afraid of death, I just don't want to be there when it happens.
Woody Allen
The advantage of the emotions is that they lead us astray.
I get offered a World War II movie at least once a week just because I speak German and was born there. I have always stayed away from it because I didn't want to be put into that box.
Diane Kruger
Wise kings generally have wise counselors and he must be a wise man himself who is capable of distinguishing one.
Diogenes
I do not regret one professional enemy I have made. Any actor who doesn't dare to make an enemy should get out of the business.
Bette Davis
I wanted to be an astronaut and wanted to go to space camp, but then I found out that I was too short to become an astronaut. My mom really made me believe that if I worked hard enough and if I really wanted to do it, I could do it.
Soleil Moon Frye
The standpoint of the man who relies on religious experience for capturing Reality must always remain individual and incommunicable.
Muhammad Iqbal
Distance doesn't exist, in fact, and neither does time. Vibrations from love or music can be felt everywhere, at all times.
Yoko Ono
Your faith in yourself is all you will ever have. Don't let anyone take it away from you, ever.
Holly Marie Combs
Do not suppose, however, that I intend to urge a diet of classics on anybody. I have seen such diets at work. I have known people who have actually read all, or almost all, the guaranteed Hundred Best Books. God save us from reading nothing but the best.
Robertson Davies
Trust is to human relationships what faith is to gospel living. It is the beginning place, the foundation upon which more can be built. Where trust is, love can flourish.
Barbara Smith
I feel like in America, we don't have a kid problem. You think about all these issues that these kids are dealing with, we have an adult problem. We have adults that do not place the priority on our kids to get a valuable education.
Alonzo Mourning
The conservative movement today is like that tall ship with its proud captain: strong, accomplished but veering off course into the dangerous and uncharted waters of big government republicanism.
Mike Pence
Life is not about how fast you run or how high you climb but how well you bounce.
Vivian Komori

Roseanne Barr
It is boorish to live ungraciously: the giving is the hardest part what does it cost to add a smile?
Jean de la Bruyere
I like to have Chinese furniture in my home as a constant and painful reminder of how much has been destroyed in China. The contrast between the beauty of the past and the ugliness of the modern is nowhere sharper than in China.
Jung Chang
I said on the equality side of it, that it is essential to a woman's equality with man that she be the decision-maker, that her choice be controlling.
Ruth Bader Ginsburg
What's great about this country is that America started the tradition where the richest consumers buy essentially the same things as the poorest.
Andy Warhol
I had some wonderful dreaming meetings. I can't tell you specifically what they've been in the recent months. In the past they've been verbal kinds of messages that he needed to give me. Now they're more dreams of his presence.
Judy Collins
I'm into designing houses and interior design. I like change. I like creating things out of nothing.
Chris Kirkpatrick
They very seldom let me lose my cool. They made me like I was Polly Perfect, which was ridiculous so that when I bump into kids on the street they'd say 'I wish my Mom were like you.'
Charlotte Rae
Listen to any musical phrase or rhythm, and grasp it as a whole, and you thereupon have present in you the image, so to speak, of the divine knowledge of the temporal order.
Josiah Royce
To make converts is the natural ambition of everyone.
Johann von Goethe
Secrecy has many advantages, for when you tell someone the purpose of any object right away, they often think there is nothing to it.
The philosopher must station themselves in the middle.
Objects in pictures should so be arranged as by their very position to tell their own story.

William Cowper
I have nothing to add.
Charlie Munger
The very definition of 'beauty' is outside.
Adam Carolla
I get up early in the morning, 4 o'clock, and I sit at my desk and what I do is just dream. After three or four hours, that's enough. In the afternoon, I run.
Haruki Murakami
When resources are degraded, we start competing for them, whether it is at the local level in Kenya, where we had tribal clashes over land and water, or at the global level, where we are fighting over water, oil, and minerals. So one way to promote peace is to promote sustainable management and equitable distribution of resources.
Wangari Maathai
A lot of people think Japanese food is difficult, a lot of work. But you don't have to buy the knife I have. You don't have to train as long as I have. You can do my cooking in your kitchen.
