Natural abilities are like natural plants, that need pruning by study and studies themselves do give forth directions too much at large, except they be bounded in by experience.
We find fault with perfection itself.
Blaise Pascal
It's not health care reform to dump more money into Medicaid.
Phil Bredesen
Most American fascists are enthusiastically supporting the war effort. They are doing this even in those cases where they hope to have profitable connections with German chemical firms after the war ends.
Henry A. Wallace
I have learned to respect ideas, wherever they come from. Often they come from clients. Account executives often have big creative ideas, regardless of what some writers think.
Leo Burnett
Like the Nazis, the cadres of jihad have a death wish that sets the seal on their nihilism. The goal of a world run by an oligarchy in possession of Teutonic genes, who may kill or enslave other 'races' according to need, is not more unrealizable than the idea that a single state, let alone the globe itself, could be governed according to the dictates of an allegedly holy book. This mad scheme begins by denying itself the talents (and the rights) of half the population, views with superstitious horror the charging of interest, and invokes the right of Muslims to subject nonbelievers to special taxes and confiscations. Not even Afghanistan or Somalia, scenes of the furthest advances yet made by pro-caliphate forces, could be governed for long in this way without setting new standards for beggary and decline.
Christopher Hitchens
Autumn arrives in early morning, but spring at the close of a winter day.
Elizabeth Bowen
But innovation comes from people meeting up in the hallways or calling each other at 10:30 at night with a new idea, or because they realized something that shoots holes in how we've been thinking about a problem.
Steve Jobs
Nature has never read the Declaration of Independence. It continues to make us unequal.
Will Durant
Philosophy is an elegant thing, if anyone modestly meddles with it; but if they are conversant with it more than is becoming, it corrupts them.
Plato
I think gardens are fantastic, and I'd love to draw and design and stuff like that. I love just planting flowers during the summer. There's something very humble about it, and natural and beautiful.
Ed Westwick
Any thoughts of guilt, any feelings of regret, had faded. The desert had baked them out.
Stephen King
I have enough music coming out of my kids' bedrooms when I'm at home.
Rod Stewart
I've often wondered how some people in positions of this kind ... manage without having had any acting experience.
Ronald Reagan
It is hard to think that a billion company with 4,300-plus people couldn't compete with six people in blue jeans.
The most common way people give up their power is by thinking they don't have any.
Alice Walker
Every age can be enchanting, provided you live within it.
Brigitte Bardot
As Ralph's character begins to discover the political thriller aspect of the film, he falls deeper in love with his wife, so the two run together. That's the beauty of this film. It has fast pace and excitement, but it also has heart and soul.
Rachel Weisz
Nobody could've ever known I was positive because I didn't know.
Marc Wallice
I was lucky enough to grow up in a home where I woke up Christmas morning and had toys. I know that's not the case with all people and I don't think kids should go without experiencing that sort of joy.
Lucy Hale
It is easy to say how we love new friends, and what we think of them, but words can never trace out all the fibers that knit us to the old.
George Eliot
For real change, we need feminine energy in the management of the world. We need a critical number of women in positions of power, and we need to nurture the feminine energy in men.
Isabel Allende
I desired dragons with a profound desire.
C.S. Lewis
I have not been able to discover whether there exists a precise French equivalent for the common Anglo-American expression 'killing time.' It's a very crass and breezy expression, when you ponder it for a moment, considering that time, after all, is killing us.
Perfect freedom is as necessary to the health and vigor of commerce as it is to the health and vigor of citizenship.
Patrick Henry
The time you spend alone with God will transform your character and increase your devotion. Then your integrity and godly behavior in an unbelieving world will make others long to know the Lord.
Charles Stanley
I am a feather for each wind that blows
William Shakespeare
Death in the horror movies is when the monsters get you.
If you're picking your best friend based on what kind of clothes she wears or how popular she is, chances are you aren't going to stay in touch after graduation.
Renee Olstead
Consciousness is only possible through change; change is only possible through movement.
Aldous Huxley
Work hard, use your common sense and don't be afraid to trust your instincts.
Fred L. Turner
The envious die not once, but as oft as the envied win applause.
Baltasar Gracian
There are unknown forces in nature when we give ourselves wholly to her, without reserve, she lends them to us she shows us these forms, which our watching eyes do not see, which our intelligence does not understand or suspect.
Auguste Rodin
The considerations of a corporation, especially now, have nothing to do with art or music.
Joni Mitchell
seperti telah kubuktikan kepadamu, aku bisa membuat kesalahan seperti orang lain. Malah, karena aku -maafkan aku- agak lebih pintar daripada sebagian besar orang, kesalahanku cenderung lebih besar juga.
J.K. Rowling
What is faith? If you believe something because you have evidence for it, or rational argument, that is not faith. So faith seems to be believing something despite the absence of evidence or rational argument for it.
Peter Singer
At least I carpe'd that one diem.
John Green
'Robopocalypse' explores the intertwined fates of regular people who face a future filled with murderous machines. It follows them as humanity foments the robot uprising, fails to recognize the coming storm, and then is rocked to the core by methodical, crippling attacks.
Daniel H. Wilson
What should young people do with their lives today? Many things, obviously. But the most daring thing is to create stable communities in which the terrible disease of loneliness can be cured.
Kurt Vonnegut
The unions say 'last hired - first fired,', we say hire and fire based on merit. We want the best and brightest in the classroom.

On top of the world, or in the depths of despair.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
