Very little is needed to make a happy life; it is all within yourself, in your way of thinking.
Since change is constant, you wonder if people crave death because it's the only way they can get anything really finished.
Chuck Palahniuk
Until the philosophy which holds one race superior and another inferior is finally and permanently discredited and abandoned, everywhere is war and until there are no longer first-class and second-class citizens of any nation, until the color of a man's skin is of no more significance than the color of his eyes. And until the basic human rights are equally guaranteed to all without regard to race, there is war. And until that day, the dream of lasting peace, world citizenship, rule of international morality, will remain but a fleeting illusion to be pursued, but never attained... now everywhere is war.
Haile Selassie
I'm a private person too, and we don't ever film anything in our home because it's off limits. It's like letting people see your messy house.
Carrie Underwood
Soldiers! When it is announced that a respected and beloved leader has died for our freedom in the course of the battle, do not grieve, do not lose hope! Observe that anyone who dies for his country is a fortunate man, but death takes what it wants, indiscriminately, in peace-time as well as in war. It is better to die with freedom than without it. Our fathers who have maintained our country in freedom for us have offered us their life in sacrifice; so let them be an example to you!Soldier, trader, peasant, young and old, man and woman, be united! Defend your country by helping each other! According to ancient custom, the women will stand in defence of their country by giving encouragement to the soldier and by caring for the wounded. Although Italy is doing everything possible to disunite us, whether Christian or Muslim we will unitedly resist. Our shelter and our shield is God. May our attackers new weapons not deflect you from your thoughts which are dedicated to your defence of Ethiopias freedom. Your King who speaks to you today will at that time be in your midst, prepared to shed his blood for the liberty of Ethiopia.
For me, journalism has been more a matter of projecting a particular approach to covering policies, to covering issues. It was a continuation of what I tried to do in government.
Eliot Spitzer
If you want to live a long life, focus on making contributions.
Hans Selye
Mental tensions, frustrations, insecurity, aimlessness are among the most damaging stressors, and psychosomatic studies have shown how often they cause migraine headache, peptic ulcers, heart attacks, hypertension, mental disease, suicide, or just hopeless unhappiness.
I don't care about age very much.
Chinua Achebe
As much as we thirst for approval we dread condemnation.
Learning how to operate a soul figures to take time.
Timothy Leary

Seneca (Seneca the Elder)
My dream is to reform the legal system over the next 20 years.
David Eagleman
The good things of prosperity are to be wished; but the good things that belong to adversity are to be admired.
Fire is the test of gold; adversity, of strong men.
Brave men rejoice in adversity, just as brave soldiers triumph in war.
It's become unfashionable to celebrate political achievement, and Labour achievement even less so. And it's positively uncouth to be proud of something that this Labour government is doing. So, slam me for saying so, but I'm really proud of the NHS.
Lucy Powell
A marriage without conflicts is almost as inconceivable as a nation without crises.
Andre Maurois
Consult your friend on all things, especially on those which respect yourself. His counsel may then be useful where your own self-love might impair your judgment.
It is very important to lead the field and innovate in game design.
John Romero
As for old age, embrace and love it. It abounds with pleasure if you know how to use it. The gradually declining years are among the sweetest in a man's life, and I maintain that, even when they have reached the extreme limit, they have their pleasure still.
There is nothing more despicable than an old man who has no other proof than his age to offer of his having lived long in the world.
A punishment to some, to some a gift, and to many a favor.
When you go to war, both sides lose totally.
Yoko Ono
Death is the wish of some, the relief of many, and the end of all.
Today's Constitution is a realistic document of freedom only because of several corrective amendments. Those amendments speak to a sense of decency and fairness that I and other Blacks cherish.
Thurgood Marshall
The final hour when we cease to exist does not itself bring death; it merely of itself completes the death-process. We reach death at that moment, but we have been a long time on the way.
I just think that the collective experience of going to see a film is something you can't recreate.
Daniel Craig
Difficulties strengthen the mind, as labor does the body.
Faith is an act of a finite being who is grasped by, and turned to, the infinite.
Paul Tillich
No evil propensity of the human heart is so powerful that it may mot be subdued by discipline.
I think Serena Williams is the best tennis player of this generation, if not the best ever. It is amazing for her to be playing as well as she is at the age of 31.
Samantha Stosur
Disease is not of the body but of the place.
Economy is too late when you are at the bottom of your purse.
Sovereignty over any foreign land is insecure.
I am against religion because it teaches us to be satisfied with not understanding the world.
Richard Dawkins
No evil is without its compensation. The less money, the less trouble; the less favor, the less envy. Even in those cases which put us out of wits, it is not the loss itself, but the estimate of the loss that troubles us.
I feel good in my own skin because I've accepted the fact that I'm me. That's what's so great about being alive and being on this planet: Everybody's different.
Kelly Osbourne
The road to learning by precept is long, but by example short and effective.
There is no friend like an old friend who has shared our morning days, no greeting like his welcome, no homage like his praise.
