Nothing is softer or more flexible than water, yet nothing can resist it.
A person's worth is contingent upon who he is, not upon what he does, or how much he has. The worth of a person, or a thing, or an idea, is in being, not in doing, not in having.
Alice Mary Hilton

Lytton Strachey
I've run less risk driving my way across country than eating my way across it.
Duncan Hines
One day you can be a kid, but another day you have to be like this is your job, you play tennis. You have to work for that.
Martina Hingis

I truly respect the people who are working. If they want an autograph from Patti LaBelle, they are going to get it. I have never separated myself from them. I never think you are better than the next one.

Hirohito
I was a teen star. That's disgusting enough.
John Cusack
The upheavals of adolescence silenced 'A Christmas Carol' for a few years. I became a firebrand atheist. Christmas - humbug! Too commercial! Then I became an agnostic. Christmas was a pro-forma affair, basically a chore. Buy mother a book, dad a new tie, my brother and sister small gifts. Pretend thanks for the fountain pens and shirts I received.
Whitley Strieber
Love is a conflict between reflexes and reflections.
Mangnu Hirschfield
If there were no bad speculations there could be no good investments; if there were no wild ventures there would be no brilliantly successful enterprises.
F. W. Hirst
What's done to children, they will do to society.
Karl A. Menninger
Why does a virtuous man take delight in the landscapes? Because the din of the dusty world and the locked-in-ness of human habitations are what human nature habitually abhors; while on the contrary, haze, mist, and the haunting spirits of the mountains are what human nature seeks, and yet can rarely find.
Kuo His

The people of the world having once been deceived, suspect deceit in truth itself.
Hitopadesa
No man should ever display his bravery unless he is prepared for battle, nor bear the marks of defiance, until he has experienced the abilities of his enemy.
A store of grain, Oh king is the best of treasures. A gem put in your mouth will not support life.
The mind is lowered through association with inferiors. With equals it attains equality; and with superiors, superiority.
The amount of money we spend on education is important, but not nearly as important as how the money is spent.
Bob Riley

Greatness does not approach him who is forever looking down.
My entry into the environmental arena was through the issue that so dramatically - and destructively - demonstrates the link between science and social action: nuclear weapons.

Justin Halpern
It is work, work that one delights in, that is the surest guarantor of happiness. But even here it is a work that has to be earned by labor in one's earlier years. One should labor so hard in youth that everything one does subsequently is easy by comparison.
Ashley Montagu
More than in any other performing arts the lack of respect for acting seems to spring from the fact that every layman considers himself a valid critic.
Simone Weil
