All you need is trust and a little bit of pixie dust!
So foolish is the heart of man that he ever puts his hope in the future, learning nothing from his past errors and fancying that tomorrow must be better than today.
Mika Waltari

Charles Eastman
Happiness, Success, Excellence: They are not something you get for knowing the path; they are something you experience by walking it.
Steve Maraboli
All the reputedly powerful reactionaries are merely paper tigers. The reason is that they are divorced from the people. Look! Was not Hitler a paper tiger? Was Hitler not overthrown? U.S. imperialism has not yet been overthrown and it has the atomic bomb. I believe it also will be overthrown. It, too, is a paper tiger.
Mao Zedong
A revolution is not a dinner party, or writing an essay, or painting a picture, or doing embroidery; it cannot be so refined, so leisurely and gentle, so temperate, kind, courteous, restrained and magnanimous. A revolution is an insurrection, an act of violence by which one class overthrows another.
With these celestial Wisdom calms the mind, And makes the happiness she does not find.
Samuel Johnson
To read too many books is harmful.
The most important thing I learned on Tralfamadore was that when a person dies he only appears to die. He is still very much alive in the past, so it is very silly for people to cry at his funeral. All moments, past, present and future, always have existed, always will exist.
Kurt Vonnegut
Power is something of which I am convinced there is no innocence this side of the womb.
Nadine Gordimer
Weapons are an important factor in war, but not the decisive factor; it is people, not things, that are decisive. The contest of strength is not only a contest of military and economic power, but also a contest of human power and morale. Military and economic power is necessarily wielded by people.
Classes struggle, some classes triumph, others are eliminated. Such is history; such is the history of civilization for thousands of years.
It is reasonable to expect the doctor to recognize that science may not have all the answers to problems of health and healing.
Norman Cousins
Communism is not love. Communism is a hammer which we use to crush the enemy.
We're in this entertainment business really to give the audience what they want.
Ice Cube
All reactionaries are paper tigers.
Men who accomplish great things in the industrial world are the ones who have faith in the money producing power of ideas.
Charles Fillmore
Letting a hundred flowers blossom and a hundred schools of thought contend is the policy for promoting the progress of the arts and the sciences and a flourishing culture in our land.
The enemy advances, we retreat; the enemy camps, we harass; the enemy tires, we attack; the enemy retreats, we pursue.
Every Communist must grasp the truth: Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun.
These days, most nature photographers are deeply committed to the environmental message.
Galen Rowell
Happiness is perfume, you can't pour it on somebody else without getting a few drops on yourself
James Van Der Zee
I have always believed that opera is a planet where the muses work together, join hands and celebrate all the arts.
Franco Zeffirelli
I'm more into the Spawn toys. They're really cool. They're coming out with a Techno Spawn series and another series, The Dark Ages, which are really cool.
Jason Mewes
There are only two ways to get a new customer: 1. solicit a new customer any way you can. 2. Take good care of your present customers, so they don't become someone else's new customers.
Ed Zeitz
The great attraction of fashion is that it diverted attention from the insoluble problems of beauty and provided an easy way -- which money could buy... to a simply stated, easily reproduced ideal of beauty, however temporary that ideal.
Theodore Zeldin
Whenever I refused to follow my fate, something very hard to bear would happen in my life.
Paulo Coelho
A lot of people into Tool, for some reason, are not interested in humor.
Maynard James Keenan
Being a philosopher, I have a problem for every solution.
Robert Zend
Being famous is just like being in high school. But I'm not interested in being the cheerleader. I'm not interested in being Gwen Stefani. She's the cheerleader, and I'm out in the smoker shed.
Courtney Love
No nation ancient or modern ever lost the liberty of freely speaking, writing, or publishing their sentiments, but forthwith lost their liberty in general and became slaves.
John P. Zenger
But there is so much more to do for the city we love... a Dallas with roads as strong as our businesses, parks as beautiful as our children, a downtown as tall as our imagination.
Laura Miller
Understand clearly that when a great need appears a great use appears also; when there is small need there is small use; it is obvious, then, that full use is made of all things at all times according to the necessity thereof.
Dogen Zenji
Oh God, God, why did you take such trouble to force this creature out of its shell if it is now doomed to crawl back -- to be sucked back -- into it?
C.S. Lewis
There are as many kinds of beauty as there are habitual ways of seeking happiness.
Charles Baudelaire

To go to bed at night in Madrid marks you as a little queer. For a long time your friends will be a little uncomfortable about it. Nobody goes to bed in Madrid until they have killed the night. Appointments with a friend are habitually made for after midnight at the cafe.
