William Collins
the voice of beauty speaks softly; it creeps only into the most fully awakened souls
Friedrich Nietzsche
When we ask for love, we don't ask others to be fair to us-but rather to care for us, to be considerate of us. There is a world of difference here between demanding justice... and begging or pleading for love.
Mortimer Adler
A man's shortcomings are taken from his epoch; his virtues and greatness belong to himself.

William Shakespeare

Stephen Richards
All women who kill or have sexual obsessions or who are prostitutes have trouble with their fathers.

Lucy Powell

Gerard Butler
I'm trying to cut down a little on eating, on sodium, keep my blood pressure down, which is tough. Because I love food! I do, but it's unfair how everything that's bad for you tastes so good, and all the good stuff, veggies and green things, doesn't match up.
Ice Cube
