Telling the truth, and confronting the challenge, is what politics is about.
I love to take things that are everyday and comforting and make them into the most luxurious things in the world.
Marc Jacobs
Any device in science is a window on to nature, and each new window contributes to the breadth of our view.
Cecil Frank Powell
You're not really in control, not with this falling-for-people stuff. You don't plan who you're going to fall in love with. It's all random - chance accidents of time and place.
Julia Green
Her black is beautiful, his society is ugly.
Habeeb Akande
But a short time elapsed after the death of the great reformer of the Jewish religion, before his principles were departed from by those who professed to be his special servants, and perverted into an engine for enslaving mankind, and aggrandizing their oppressors in Church and State.
Thomas Jefferson
The state exists for man, not man for the state. The same may be said of science. These are old phrases, coined by people who saw in human individuality the highest human value. I would hesitate to repeat them, were it not for the ever recurring danger that they may be forgotten, especially in these days of organization and stereotypes.
Albert Einstein
My friend asked me if I wanted a frozen banana. I said 'No, but I want a regular banana later, so... yeah.'
Mitch Hedberg
Never give a sword to a man who can't dance.
Confucius
You never let a serious crisis go to waste. And what I mean by that it's an opportunity to do things you think you could not do before.
Rahm Emanuel
My brother is one of my true heroes. Steady and sober where I am impulsive and emotional.
Mark McKinnon
We should be careful of the insults we fling at others, lest they return and land at our feet, newly minted to apply to those who had first coined them.
Alexander McCall Smith

Cassandra Clare

Sasha Azevedo
Everything popular is wrong.
Oscar Wilde
Which is, I'm an optimist that two people can be together to work out their conflicts. And that commitment, I think, might be what love is, because they both grow from their relationship.
Garry Shandling
Can Power speak the truth to love? These men certainly blurted it out. And what did we learn from them? That power is blind, and love at first sight is a fickle judge of those who grasp too desperately.
Benson Bruno
The truth is everybody does it from time to time. People dial telephone numbers and they get a wrong number only to find that they've read the last two digits backwards. Everybody does it, but dyslexics have this tendency to a higher degree.
Bruce Jenner
If non-linear leaps in intelligence and ability are possible, why haven't these effects been observed in our schools? I believe the answer lies in the profound inertia of human thought: when an entire society believes something is impossible, it suppresses, by its very way of life, the evidence that would contradict that belief.
John Mighton
I've been dictating to my son, who's helping me on his computer. I'm spending a lot of time doing research--I've just got up to 1971, when I went crazy and dived through the window. My life is so full of interesting stories...
Ozzy Osbourne

Friedrich Nietzsche
Say what you have to say, not what you ought. Any truth is better than make-believe.
Henry David Thoreau
Love is the grounding of our existence as humans and is the basic emotioning in our systemic identity as human beings.
Humberto R. Maturana
The energy and daring is to resist the noes, until the final yes has been achieved.
Jeffrey D. Sachs
We are so limited, you have to use the same word for loving Rosaleen as you do for loving Coke with peanuts. Isn't that a shame we don't have many more ways to say it?
Sue Monk Kidd
There was a pretty young woman I used to see pegging out sheets and I worried that she would grow old there and that no one would know how beautiful she was. And maybe she would die without ever having really lived.
Sebastian Faulks
Any ceremony performed in the absence of reasonable knowledge as to cause and effect is magic.
Bernard Wolfe
Spiritual and religious traditions, when shaped by the feminine principle, affirm the cyclical phrases of our lives and the wisdom each phase brings, the sacredness of our bodies and the body of the Earth
Patrick Wynne
Law is made by the winner to preserve victory over the loser.
Toba Beta
I am aware that a philosopher's ideas are not subject to the judgment of ordinary persons, because it is his endeavour to seek the truth in all things, to the extent permitted to human reason by God.
Nicolaus Copernicus
a wind has blown the rain away
E.E. Cummings
Of course, he who has put forth his total strength in fit actions, has the richest return of wisdom.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
It is in the nature of truth not to be at fault.
Martin Firrell
There can be no absolute reality, there can be no absolute truth.
Kevin Warwick
In love, everything is true, everything is false; it is the one subject on which one cannot express an absurdity
Chamfort
I have an idea that the only thing which makes it possible to regard this world we live in without disgust is the beauty which now and then men create out of the chaos. The pictures they paint, the music they compose, the books they write, and the lives they lead. Of all these the richest in beauty is the beautiful life. That is the perfect work of art.
W. Somerset Maugham
There is truth in all things, if you understand them well.
Lloyd Alexander
A politician is a fellow who will lay down your life for his country.
