If you really want to be happy, don't just go for the money. Go for the relationship that lasts. Go for things of greater value.
One reason we lasted so long is that we usually played two people who were very much in love. As we were realistic actors, we became those two people. So we had a divertissement: I had an affair with him, and he with me.
Lynn Fontanne
I'm yours, Kiera, for as long as you want me
S.C. Stephens
Politics in a literary work, is like a gun shot in the middle of a concert, something vulgar, and however, something which is impossible to ignore.
Stendhal
The union of their shared lives could be a masterpiece, even if the colors of one piece clashed with another, even if uneven stitches showed, even if, from time to time, they had to pick out seams, realign the pieces, and sew them back together again. It would not be perfect, but it could be beautiful, if they worked together and persevered.
Jennifer Chiaverini
I have never, honestly, thrown a chair in my life.
Steve Ballmer

An ambassador is an honest man sent abroad to lie and intrigue for the benefit of his country.
Henry Wotton
This world has few redeeming features, and one is the capacity for people to love one another with great, enduring passion.
David Gemmell
Becoming an adult is all about accepting that you didn't know anything when you were a kid.
Andrew Sturm
I think Janeane Garofalo is incredibly funny, and I love Dennis Miller.
Kristen Johnston
Men always complained I had a lot of boyfriends. I never agreed, or disagreed. I was too busy kissing to care. I disapproved of jealous complainers and had not an opinion on their opinion of me.
Coco J. Ginger
The life of a plural wife, she'd found, was a life lived under constant comparison, a life spent wondering. Sitting across from her sister-wives at Sunday dinner, the platters and serving dishes floating past like hovercraft, the questions were almost inescapable; Who of us is the most happy? Which of us is his one true love? Who does he desire the most?
Brady Udall
Songs and smells will bring you back to a moment in time more than anything else. It's amazing how much can be conjured with a few notes of a song or a solitary whiff of a room. A song you didn't even pay attention to at the time, a place that you didn't even know had a particular smell. I wonder what will someday bring back Dex and our few months together. Maybe the sound of Dido's voice. Maybe the scent of the Aveda shampoo I've been using all summer.
Emily Giffin
Your best is good enough.
Vivian E. Greenberg
there are so many dayswhen living stops and pulls up and sitsand waits like a train on the rails.
Charles Bukowski
From this point of view, science - the real game in town - is rhetoric, a series of efforts to persuade relevant social actors that one's manufactured knowledge is a route to a desired form of very objective power.
Donna Haraway
That's all the freedom we canhope for - the freedom to choose our prison. [...]
L.M. Montgomery
Soul receives from soul that knowledge, therefore not by book nor from tongue. If knowledge of mysteries come after emptiness of mind, that is illumination of heart.
Rumi
God, I dont have great faith, but I can be faithful. My belief in you may be seasonal, but my faithfulness will not. I will follow in the way of Christ. I will act as though my life and the lives of others matter. I will love. I have no greater gift to offer than my life. Take it.
Real Live Preacher
No one could ever truly be free as long as they loved, and life wasn't worth living without love. So freedom? Overrated.
Gena Showalter
I would lay down everything I possess, even my soul, for you. If that isn't love, it's the best I have.
Becca Fitzpatrick
If you want more development in your relationship, move to an urban area.
Bauvard
Thus the sum of things is ever being reviewed, and mortals dependent one upon another. Some nations increase, others diminish, and in a short space the generations of living creatures are changed and like runners pass on the torch of life.
Lucretius
I've never been quite sure what the point of a eunuch is, if truth be told. It seems to me they're only men with the useful bits cut off.
George R. R. Martin
I would love to not date someone in the same industry as me. Otherwise it becomes what it means to everyone else.
Emma Watson
Long as I can spell G-o-d I got somebody along.
Alice Walker
Every love story needs a catalyst of some sort.
Ian Somerhalder
I resist my temptations in order to feel i am free.
Mike Gayle
I was seven years old. What do you know when you're seven years old? All my life, or so I thought, we'd been in the city of Alexandria, in the Street of the Carpenters, with the other Galileans, and sooner or later we were going home.
Anne Rice
If a person's mind is controlled by forces of revenge and jealousy, it cannot express love
Virchand Raghavji Gandhi
Before I could reply, he had picked me up, literally swept me off my feet, and kissed me. And afterwards, when I tried to speak, he silenced me in much the same manner. It was a shock (but not at all distasteful) to be so caught up. Later - when he at last set me down - he handled me more gently. He took of my glasses and told me that he loved me.

Richard Carlson
Every atom you possess has almost certainly passed through several stars and been part of millions of organisms on its way to becoming you. We are each so atomically numberous and so vigorously recycled at death that a significant number of our atoms-up to a billion for each of us, it has been suggested-probably once belonged to Shakespeare. A billion more each came from Buddha and Genghis Khan and Beethoven, and any other historical figure you care to name.
Bill Bryson
Food has always brought me comfort and the bingeing is triggered when I'm in a space that is not positive.
Janet Jackson
When you were born you were crying and everyone else was smiling. Live your life so at the end, your're the one who is smiling and everyone else is crying.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
I love my love with a b because she is peculiar.
Gertrude Stein
