Yes, I will bring the understanding of a woman to the Court, but I doubt that alone will affect my decisions.
Sandra Day O'Connor
A yawn is a silent shout.
G. K. Chesterton
Boyhood is a most complex and incomprehensible thing. Even when one has been through it, one does not understand what it was. A man can never quite understand a boy, even when he has been the boy.
Buddhism is not a creed, it is a doubt.
Chastity does not mean abstention from sexual wrong; it means something flaming, like Joan of Arc.
Feminism is dated? Yes, for privileged women like my daughter and all of us here today, but not for most of our sisters in the rest of the world who are still forced into premature marriage, prostitution, forced labor - they have children that they don't want or they cannot feed.
Isabel Allende
The aim of life is appreciation; there is no sense in not appreciating things; and there is no sense in having more of them if you have less appreciation of them.
Artistic temperament is the disease that afflicts amateurs.
Trust is hard to come by. That's why my circle is small and tight. I'm kind of funny about making new friends.
Eminem
I was irrevocably betrothed to laughter, the sound of which has always seemed to me the most civilised music in the world.
Peter Ustinov
How you think when you lose determines how long it will be until you win.
Like art and politics, gangsterism is a very important avenue of assimilation into society.
E. L. Doctorow
Tradition means giving votes to the most obscure of all classes -- our ancestors. It is the democracy of the dead. Tradition refuses to submit to the small and arrogant oligarchy of those who merely happen to be walking around.
The only way of catching a train I have ever discovered is to miss the train before.
You can only find truth with logic if you have already found truth without it.
People deal too much with the negative, with what is wrong. Why not try and see positive things, to just touch those things and make them bloom?
Nhat Hanh
Truth must necessarily be stranger than fiction, for fiction is the creation of the human mind and therefore congenial to it.
When you stop talking, you've lost your customer. When you turn your back, you've lost her.
Estee Lauder
If you do not understand a man you cannot crush him. And if you do understand him, very probably you will not.
People in high life are hardened to the wants and distresses of mankind as surgeons are to their bodily pains.
I love food and I love my curves.
Jordin Sparks
It's not an accident that both my sister and I are writers. Our parents created an accidental Petri dish. My family has great storytellers, and I grew up in a very funny, conversational house and didn't have television. This small family farm was a bubble world that didn't have much to do with reality.
Elizabeth Gilbert
The average man votes below himself; he votes with half a mind or a hundredth part of one. A man ought to vote with the whole of himself, as he worships or gets married. A man ought to vote with his head and heart, his soul and stomach, his eye for faces and his ear for music; also (when sufficiently provoked) with his hands and feet. If he has ever seen a fine sunset, the crimson color of it should creep into his vote. The question is not so much whether only a minority of the electorate votes. The point is that only a minority of the voter votes.

I never really liked poetry readings I liked to read poetry by myself, but I liked singing, chanting my lyrics to this jazz group.
Leonard Cohen
Variability is one of the virtues of a woman. It avoids the crude requirement of polygamy. So long as you have one good wife you are sure to have a spiritual harem.
The world will never starve for want of wonders, but for want of wonder.
When we really worship anything, we love not only its clearness but its obscurity. We exult in its very invisibility.
No man knows he is young while he is young.
Even as kids reach adolescence, they need more than ever for us to watch over them. Adolescence is not about letting go. It's about hanging on during a very bumpy ride.
Ron Taffel
One sees great things from the valley; only small things from the peak.
Do not free the camel of the burden of his hump; you may be freeing him from being a camel.
The Christian ideal has not been tried and found wanting. It has been found difficult; and left untried.
The doctrine of human equality reposes on this: that there is no man really clever who has not found that he is stupid.
I've searched all the parks in all the cities and found no statues of committees.
Otherwise I don't read much adult poetry at all, because I'm not smart enough and mostly I don't get it.
