The most luxurious possession, the richest treasure anybody has, is his personal dignity.
At this early stage in our evolution, now through our infancy and into our childhood and then, with luck, our growing up, what our species needs most of all, right now, is simply a future.
Lewis Thomas
In reality, Republicans have long been at war with clean energy. They have ridiculed investments in solar and wind power, bashed energy-efficiency standards, attacked state moves to promote renewable energy and championed laws that would enshrine taxpayer subsidies for fossil fuels while stripping them from wind and solar.
Jeff Goodell
The biggest lesson I've learned by living abroad for the last four years is the importance of communication.
Hidetoshi Nakata
Men do not have to cook their food they do so for symbolic reasons to show they are men and not beasts.
Edmund Leach
Death is just life's next big adventure.
J. K. Rowling
Controversy is part of the nature of art and creativity.
Yoko Ono
The bungalow had more to do with how Americans live today than any other building that has gone remotely by the name of architecture in our history.
Russell Lynes
Particularly black Americans, many of them, from quotes that I have seen and conversations I've had, are sort of insulted that the civil rights movement is being hijacked - the rhetoric of the civil rights movement is being hijacked for something like same sex marriage. Black Americans tend to have a higher degree of religiosity.
Gary Bauer
The loss of a friend is like that of a limb time may heal the anguish of the wound, but the loss cannot be repaired.
Robert Southey
Men trust their ears less than their eyes.
Herodotus
I think I first realized I wanted to be in country music and be an artist when I was 10. And I started dragging my parents to festivals, and fairs, and karaoke contests, and I did that for about a year before I came to Nashville for the first time. I was 11 and I had this demo CD of me singing Dixie Chicks and Leanne Rimes songs.
Taylor Swift
Music videos are notoriously long, not fun, grueling. You are known there as a dancer and it's kind of sad because dancers, in a lot of ways, are under-appreciated and kind of under-respected when it come to that so they don't necessarily treat you in a nice way when you do a music video.
Jenna Dewan
It's a poor sort of memory that only works backwards," the Queen remarked.
Lewis Carroll
There will be, I think, an attempt to grasp again the surprise and accidents of nature and a more intimate and sympathetic study of its moods, together with a renewed wonder and humility on the part of such as are still capable of these basic reactions.
Edward Hopper
The biggest challenge is how to affect public attitudes and make people care.
Jim Fowler
Looking back, there is nothing wrong with that peace, love and equality that the hippies espoused. In many ways, we have regressed because they were into organic food, back to nature, make love not war, be good to all men, share and share alike - which is what many are talking about now.
Imelda Staunton
Barack Obama knows that to create an economy built to last, we need to focus on middle-class families. Families who stay up on Sunday nights pacing the floor, like my dad did, while their children, tucked in bed, dream big dreams. Families who aren't sure what Monday morning will bring, but who believe our nation's best days are still ahead.
Charles Schumer
Think about the comfortable feeling you have as you open your front door. That's but a hint of what we'll feel some day on arriving at the place our Father has lovingly and personally prepared for us in heaven. We will finally - and permanently - be 'at home' in a way that defies description.
Charles Stanley
All experience is subjective.
Gregory Bateson
The Dove, on silver pinions, winged her peaceful way.
James Montgomery
Piecemeal social engineering resembles physical engineering in regarding the ends as beyond the province of technology.
Karl Popper
We will always make sure player health and safety is our No. 1 priority in the NFL.
Roger Goodell
I love Adele, I want her to be my best friend. She could come to the U.S., live with me and sing to me every morning.
Amber Riley
Death is one moment, and life is so many of them.
Tennessee Williams
I have no problems with private schools. I graduated from one and so did my mother. Private schools are useful and we often use public funds to pay for their infrastructures and other common needs.
Jim Clyburn
I could probably give you a list of a dozen pet peeves I have about my own physicality and why I couldn't get a second date.
Zachary Levi
When one is frightened of the truth then it is never the whole truth that one has an inkling of.
Ludwig Wittgenstein
I remember that. I was talking to him and I said how great it would be if actors had a tail because I have animals and a tail is so expressive. On a cat you can tell everything. You can tell if they're annoyed. You can tell whether they're scared.
Christopher Walken
If it weren't for Philo T. Farnsworth, inventor of television, we'd still be eating frozen radio dinners.
Johnny Carson
Happiness is a direction, not a place.
Sydney J. Harris
I say to the Taliban: surrender the terrorists or surrender power. It's your choice.
Tony Blair
Courage is very important. Like a muscle, it is strengthened by use.
Ruth Gordon
I got a lot of things that society had promised would make me whole and fulfilled - all the things that the culture tells you from preschool on will quiet the throbbing anxiety inside you - stature, the respect of colleagues, maybe even a kind of low-grade fame.
Anne Lamott
As far as thinking about death and murder and various ways of killing people and how people die... I probably have the most twisted mind in Slayer.
Tom Araya
That's one of the benefits of working on big budget films. You work with people who have a lot of experience and you get to learn a lot.
Liev Schreiber
I was lucky that I met the right mentors and teachers at the right moment.
James Levine
Victorian architecture in the United States was copied straight from England.
Stephen Gardiner
I heard this music coming out of the radio and it was 'Ain't Nobody's Business.' It got me. I thought, 'I can do this.' I decided just like that. No romantic story.
Jerry Leiber
I like added pressure. It makes me work harder.
Mary Lou Retton
Nothing can be made of nothing; he who has laid up no material can produce no combination.
