Slowly poetry becomes visual because it paints images, but it is also musical: it unites two arts into one.
To give without any reward, or any notice, has a special quality of its own.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Just really, really believe in what you're trying to do. Don't let people alter that. Let people advise you and lead you down paths to make smart business decisions. But trust your instinct and trust that overwhelming drive that made you put all your dreams and everything on the line.
Luke Bryan
There are no signposts in the sky to show a man has passed that way before. There are no channels marked. The flier breaks each second into new uncharted seas.
My political science degree is always on the back-burner. I took my LSAT, so even if I want to take the LSAT again, I know what I'm getting into. I'll keep it on the back-burner. Who knows, maybe with my popularity, I can have a career in politics with a law degree. I think it'll work out either way.
Vinny Guadagnino
One can never pay in gratitude; one can only pay in kind somewhere else in life.
I grew up in a house where my father encouraged my brother and me to fail. I specifically remember coming home and saying, 'Dad, Dad, I tried out for this or that and I was horrible,' and he would high-five me and say, 'Way to go.'
Sara Blakely

Ellen G. White
Only in growth, reform, and change, paradoxically enough, is true security to be found.
By and large, mothers and housewives are the only workers who do not have regular time off. They are the great vacationless class.
The effects of human rights education can be dramatic in awakening people to the value and power of their own lives, as shown in the following stories.
Daisaku Ikeda
Duration is not a test of truth or falsehood.
A lady's imagination is very rapid it jumps from admiration to love, from love to matrimony in a moment.
Jane Austen
It takes as much courage to have tried and failed as it does to have tried and succeeded.
Movies either work or they don't work and they're either funny or they're not and we work very hard. To achieve that kind of work is really kind of delicate stitching.
Ivan Reitman
What kind of man would live where there is no daring? I don't believe in taking foolish chances but nothing can be accomplished without taking any chance at all.
Charles A. Lindbergh
I think movies are good for getting into dream states or exploring weird alternate states of thinking.
Alex Winter
The improvement of our way of life is more important than the spreading of it. If we make it satisfactory enough, it will spread automatically. If we do not, no strength of arms can permanently oppose it.
Character matters leadership descends from character.
Rush Limbaugh
Is he alone who has courage on his right hand and faith on his left hand?
I'm very comfortable with how I look. I always have been. I think I look pretty good. There's nothing I want to change. I'm pretty happy with what I've got.
Avril Lavigne
What we call a democratic society might be defined for certain purposes as one in which the majority is always prepared to put down a revolutionary minority.
Walter Lippmann
We may brave human laws, but we cannot resist natural ones.
Jules Verne
This is one of the paradoxes of the democratic movement -- that it loves a crowd and fears the individuals who compose it -- that the religion of humanity should have no faith in human beings.
To own the dominant, or only, newspaper in a mid-sized American city was, for many decades, a kind of license to print money. In the Internet age, however, no one has figured out how to rescue the newspaper in the United States or abroad.
Eric Alterman
Unless democracy is to commit suicide by consenting to its own destruction, it will have to find some formidable answer to those who come to it saying: I demand from you in the name of your principles the rights which I shall deny to you later in the name of my principles.
My mom loved to sing - and I'll go on record and say she was the worst singer ever. I'd get up and move away from her!
Kenny Rogers
Ignore what a man desires and you ignore the very source of his power
Our greatest happiness does not depend on the condition of life in which chance has placed us, but is always the result of a good conscience, good health, occupation, and freedom in all just pursuits.
Thomas Jefferson
In really hard times the rules of the game are altered. The inchoate mass begins to stir. It becomes potent, and when it strikes, it strikes with incredible emphasis. Those are the rare occasions when a national will emerges from the scattered, specialized, or indifferent blocs of voters who ordinarily elect the politicians. Those are for good or evil the great occasions in a nation's history.
No amount of charters, direct primaries, or short ballots will make a democracy out of an illiterate people.
Football strategy does not originate in a scrimmage: it is useless to expect solutions in a political campaign.
There is no arguing with the pretenders to a divine knowledge and to a divine mission. They are possessed with the sin of pride, they have yielded to the perennial temptation.
I like when guests come over early and we chop veggies and talk and play music.
John Stamos
A useful definition of liberty is obtained only by seeking the principle of liberty in the main business of human life, that is to say, in the process by which men educate their responses and learn to control their environment.
The employee is regarded by the employer merely in the light of his value as an operative. His productive capacity alone is taken into account.
Leland Stanford
An alliance is like a chain. It is not made stronger by adding weak links to it. A great power like the United States gains no advantage and it loses prestige by offering, indeed peddling, its alliances to all and sundry. An alliance should be hard diplomatic currency, valuable and hard to get, and not inflationary paper from the mimeograph machine in the State Department.
When you first get money, you buy all these things so no one thinks you're mean, and you spread it around. You get a chauffeur and you find yourself thrown around the back of this car and you think, I was happier when I had my own little car! I could drive myself!
Paul McCartney
It is perfectly true that that government is best which governs least. It is equally true that that government is best which provides most.
