A man doesn't plant a tree for himself. He plants it for posterity.
Those whom God wishes to destroy, he first makes mad.
Euripides
After a century of striving, after a year of debate, after a historic vote, health care reform is no longer an unmet promise. It is the law of the land.
Barack Obama
I had a sense of who I was before I got famous.
Joe Rogan
I never had a speech from my father 'this is what you must do or shouldn't do' but I just learned to be led by example. My father wasn't perfect.
Adam Sandler
The second I met Zac, I thought he was a really cool guy. It's hard not to have chemistry with someone who is so attractive.
Vanessa Hudgens
My attitude towards drawing is not necessarily about drawing. It's about making the best kind of image I can make, it's about talking as clearly as I can.
Jim Dine
Marriage brings one into fatal connection with custom and tradition, and traditions and customs are like the wind and weather, altogether incalculable.
Soren Kierkegaard
The cool part about working for Disney is that they've allowed me to be a change agent.
Christy Romano
The key to accepting responsibility for your life is to accept the fact that your choices, every one of them, are leading you inexorably to either success or failure, however you define those terms.
Neal Boortz
The relationship between Israel and the United States is a bond of - it's just a very powerful bond. It was, it is, and will be and will continue to be.
Benjamin Netanyahu
It's impossible, I think, however much I'd become disillusioned politically or evolve into a post-political person, I don't think I'd ever change my view that socialism is the best political moment humans have ever come up with.
Christopher Hitchens
Making movies is a very different experience in a lot of ways. It's difficult when you're used to owning the copyright and having a landlord's possessory rights - I rent my plays to the companies that do them and, if I'm upset, I can pull the play. But the only two directors I've worked with are pretty great.
Tony Kushner
The foundations of a strong economy don't rest alone on the decisions of Chancellors or the spending programmes of government.
George Osborne
Holding on to anger, resentment and hurt only gives you tense muscles, a headache and a sore jaw from clenching your teeth. Forgiveness gives you back the laughter and the lightness in your life.
Joan Lunden
You pick up loads of baggage with your first record with reaction to it from fans and critics. So I went to Ireland by myself for a couple of weeks with my guitar. I read lots of poetry, I read Patti Smith's autobiography and started words and phrases and then songs started to take shape.
Ellie Goulding
It used to be that you had to make female TV characters perfect so no one would be offended by your 'portrayal' of women. Even when I started out on 'The Office' eight years ago, we could write our male characters funny and flawed, but not the women. And now, thankfully, it's completely different.
Mindy Kaling
It is rare to find a business partner who is selfless. If you are lucky it happens once in a lifetime.
Michael Eisner
The federal government has sponsored research that has produced a tomato that is perfect in every respect, except that you can't eat it. We should make every effort to make sure this disease, often referred to as 'progress', doesn't spread.
Andy Rooney
In the future, torture will once again become the recreational sport of the rich.
Doug Coupland
But I was going to be a teacher my entire life, so I wasn't counting on money to much.
Clay Aiken
For example, lead paint in old houses can be a greater threat to children's health than lead that may be under some industrial site where there are no children.
Fred Thompson
War is something Arafat sends others to do for him. That is, the poor souls who believe in him. This pompous incompetent caused the failure of the Camp David negotiations, Clinton's mediation.
Oriana Fallaci
I might be deceiving myself but I do not think that I do have an inordinate fear of death.
A. N. Wilson
Only a monopolist could study a business and ruin it by giving away products.
Scott McNealy
The UK desperately needs less government and freer markets.
Rupert Murdoch
I have the freedom to do what I want... bright people to talk to every day.
Freeman Dyson
I have great expectations for the future, because the past was highly overrated.
Sylvester Stallone
Even if people do wrong, we're social animals, so what can we do about stopping them doing the same things in future? Saying people are 'bad' or 'evil' is just an unwillingness to engage an unwillingness to try to empathise. That sanctimonious attitude doesn't help anyone.
Denise Mina
I offer neither pay, nor quarters, nor food I offer only hunger, thirst, forced marches, battles and death. Let him who loves his country with his heart, and not merely with his lips, follow me.
Giuseppe Garibaldi
Every year, August lashes out in volcanic fury, rising with the din of morning traffic, its great metallic wings smashing against the ground, heating the air with ever-increasing intensity.
Henry Rollins
Instinct is the nose of the mind.
Madame de Girardin
It's cool when fans spend so much time making things for me. It means a lot.
Justin Bieber
When I get up and work out, I'm working out just as much for my girls as I am for me, because I want them to see a mother who loves them dearly, who invests in them, but who also invests in herself. It's just as much about letting them know as young women that it is okay to put yourself a little higher on your priority list.
Michelle Obama
It's very easy for me to say what success is. I think success is connecting with an audience who understands you and having a dialogue with them. I think success is continuing to push yourself forward creatively and not sort of becoming a caricature of yourself.
Lena Dunham
Some people feel that what we're doing makes no sense, that it's just a waste of money. But it's working.
Calvin Klein
It takes a long time to grow an old friend.
John Leonard
Every man regards his own life as the New Year's Eve of time.
Jean Paul
I first learned that there were black people living in some place called other than the United States in the western hemisphere when I was a very little boy, and my father told me that when he was a boy about my age, he wanted to be an Episcopal priest, because he so admired his priest, a black man from someplace called Haiti.
Henry Louis Gates
What is a scientist after all? It is a curious man looking through a keyhole, the keyhole of nature, trying to know what's going on.
Jacques Yves Cousteau
From the world wars of Europe to the jungles of the Far East, from the deserts of the Middle East to the African continent, and even here in our own hemisphere, our veterans have made the world a better place and America the great country we are today.
