Know the true value of time; snatch, seize, and enjoy every moment of it. No idleness, no delay, no procrastination; never put off till tomorrow what you can do today.
Study after study confirms that even when you control for variables like profession, education, hours worked, age, marital status, and children, men still are compensated substantially more - even in professions, like nursing, dominated by women. No wonder there's a gender gap.
Dee Dee Myers
Grammar, which can govern even Kings.
Moli
Fame is a vapor, popularity an accident; the only earthly certainty is oblivion
Mark Twain
Throughout my 20s I spent a lot of time just playing and not really working, but fortunately for me I continued to get just enough work, and have a reason to wake up in the morning. I really empathize with some of my peers who had success in the early years then it dries up, and so there's no reason to get up in the morning.
Jason Bateman
Long is the road from conception to completion.
Intelligence, patriotism, Christianity, and a firm reliance on Him, who has never yet forsaken this favored land, are still competent to adjust, in the best way, all our present difficulty.

She was so ugly that the last time I saw a mouth like that it had a hook in it.
Rodney Dangerfield
I remember we woke up one morning at Denny's house and John Phillips called. He said, you guys okay? We said, yeah, what's wrong, what's going on? He said, well, everybody's dead over at Sharon's house at Terry Melcher's place.
Barry McGuire
Oh how fine it is to know a thing or two!
When you have fear then the world is a big place. When you have courage then the world shrinks.
Stephen Richards
I have to say that when you tour the world, obviously, the jetlags and different hours and ways of living and traveling, a lot of hours in the plane, and you wake up in the morning and you're not quite sure where you are, and it is very tiring.
Celine Dion
We often marry in despair, so that we repent of it all our life after.
I never told my own religion nor scrutinized that of another. I never attempted to make a convert, nor wished to change another's creed. I am satisfied that yours must be an excellent religion to have produced a life of such exemplary virtue and correctness. For it is in our lives, and not from our words, that our religion must be judged.
Thomas Jefferson
Unfortunately, President Obama's failed policies of new regulations, higher taxes, and Obamacare and his anti-business rhetoric have hit Hispanics especially hard. Big government really hurts those who are trying to make it.
Marco Rubio
Love is often the fruit of marriage.
When, however, you have an enemy, then do not requite him good for evil: for that would shame him. Instead, prove that he did some good for you. And rather be angry than put to shame! And when you are cursed, I do not like it that you want to bless. Rather curse a little also! And if you are done a great injustice, then quickly add five small ones. Hideous to behold is he who is obsessed with an injustice.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I have never yet seen any plan which has not been mended by the observations of those who were much inferior in understanding to the person who took the lead in the business.

Never make friends with people who are above or below you in status. Such friendships will never give you any happiness.

Albert Camus
The greater the obstacle, the more glory in overcoming it.
Those Dutchmen had hardly any imagination or fantasy, but their good taste and their scientific knowledge of composition were enormous.
Vincent Van Gogh
It's true Heaven forbids some pleasures, but a compromise can usually be found.
In a book, all would have gone according to plan.... but life was so fucking untidy - what could you say for an existence where some of your most crucial conversations of your life took place when you needed to take a shit, or something? An existence where there weren't even any chapters?
Stephen King
There is no praise to beat the sort you can put in your pocket.
All people are born alike - except Republicans and Democrats.
Groucho Marx
Of all follies there is none greater than wanting to make the world a better place.
It is not only what we do, but also what we do not do for which we are accountable.
It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest that I go to, than I have ever known
Charles Dickens
God gave us faculties for our use each of them will receive its proper reward. Then do not let us try to charm them to sleep, but permit them to do their work until divinely called to something higher.
