Never interrupt someone doing what you said couldn't be done.
This dead of midnight is the noon of thought, And Wisdom mounts her zenith with the stars.
Anna Letitia Barbauld
Some that will hold a creed unto martyrdom will not hold the truth against a sneering laugh
Austin O'Malley
The wise man will follow a star, low and large and fierce in the heavens, but the nearer he comes to it the smaller and smaller it will grow,till he finds it the humble lantern over some little inn or stable. Not till we know the high things shall we know how lovely they are.
G.K. Chesterton
Most prayers are not really questions...and if we listen very closely, a prayer is often its own answer. ...We pray because we are here - not to change the world, but to change ourselves. Because it is when we change ourselves...that the world is changed.
Douglas Wood
The problem, of course, was that [he] saw the world in black and white. And he got to decide what was black and what was white. You can't love a person who lives that way without fearing him too. Maybe even hating him a little.
Khaled Hosseini
This is faith, receiving the truth of Christ; first knowing it to be true, and then acting upon that belief.
Charles Spurgeon
Criminals do not die by the hands of the law. They die by the hands of other men.
George Bernard Shaw
A lot of words in English confuse the idea of life and electricity, like the word livewire.
Laurie Anderson
I definitely would like to do something serious. Not like a love story, but serious like maybe a gangster or a mobster. A gang or a mob movie would be great.
Jason Mewes
A cheerful life is what the Muses love, A soaring spirit is their prime delight.
William Wordsworth
Semiotics is in principle the discipline studying everything which can be used in order to lie. If something cannot be used to tell a lie, conversely it cannot be used to tell the truth: it cannot in fact be used to tell at all.
Umberto Eco
I can't deal with actors! I can't deal with myself. We're neurotic and miserable... I love doing what I'm doing, but while I'm doing it, I'm miserable.
Viola Davis
While I'm quite happy and love doing the atmospheric and quirky stuff, the melodic stuff, I've done quite a lot of. It's also another reason why I try not to do two or three at the same time.
Trevor Rabin
Best way to describe life could be suffering from your past or could just be a moment spend with heart full of satisfaction.
Santosh Kalwar
Watch a man in times of adversity to discover what kind of man he is; for then at last words of truth are drawn from the depths of his heart, and the mask is torn off.
Titus Lucretius Carus
The worm doth woo the mortal, death claims a living bride, Night unto day is married, morn unto eventide, Earth a merry damsel, and heaven a knight so true,And Earth is quite coquettish, and beseemeth in vain to sue.
Emily Dickinson
Lust has less logic than love, sometimes, but it's easier to fight.
Laurell K Hamilton
I love working in the theater.
Didi Conn
Love does not entreat; or demand. Love must have the strength to become certain within itself. Then it ceases merely to be attracted and begins to attract.
Hermann Hesse
How many victims must that be? Slaughtered in vain across the land,And how many strugles must that be?Before we choose to live the profits planEverybody sing- Every day create your History,Every path you take you're leaving your legacyEvery soldier dies in his gloryEvery legend tells of conquest and liberty.
Michael Jackson
God save us from religion.
David Eddings
I suppose the love of life which periodically deserts most men was returning: like sexual desire, it moves in cycles.
Graham Greene
I thought: pity the poor in spirit who know neither the enchantment nor the beauty of language.
Muriel Barbery
Heaven wheels above you, displaying to you her eternal glories, and still your eyes are on the ground
Dante Alighieri
The brainwashing which has been going on for 150 years has also resulted in the replacement of intellectual activities and religion by ideologies and science....I have nothing against Marx, except that his theories do not explain what happened.
Carroll Quigley
Music has the power to make me feel good like nothing else does. It gives me some peace for a while. Takes me back to who I really am.
Gil Scott-Heron
A corner is important. It provides privacy and an anchor and lets you exist independently of the room.
Roger Ebert
O bitter is it to abide In weariness alway: At dawn to sigh for eventide, At eventide for day. Thy noon hath fled: thy sun hath shone: The brightness of thy day is gone: What need to lag and linger on Till life be cold and gray?
Lewis Carroll
To be kind, honest and have positive thoughts; to forgive those who harm us and treat everyone as a friend; to help those who are suffering and never to consider ourselves superior to anyone else: even if this advice seems rather simplistic, make the effort of seeing whether by following it you can find greater happiness.
Dalai Lama XIV
Travel brings wisdom only to the wise. It renders the ignorant more ignorant than ever.
Joe Abercrombie
I survived, but it's not a happy ending.
Tim O'Brien
Everybody deserves love, but nobody is entitled to it.
Katerina Stoykova Klemer
If you are not doing what you love, you are wasting your time.
Billy Joel
I would love to do more private concerts.
Renee Fleming
Smartass Disciple: Master, what are you talking about? None of us understand!Master of Stupidity: Be patient! It is not ended yet. The end justifies the means.
Toba Beta
The very idea that there is some kind of conflict between science and religion is completely mistaken. Science is a method for investigating experience... Religion is the fundamental, necessary internalization of our system of more permanent values.
If you let even a little sin into your heart, it's going to contaminate your prayers. Your Christian life will not achieve its full potential.
Bill Hybels
the worst happens when you least expect it
Dean Koontz
Do what you love doing.
Julianna Margulies
Among all the nonsense, mistakes, and bad ideas we come up with, maybe some truth will sneak in.
