Towering genius disdains a beaten path. It seeks regions hitherto unexplored.
I think that animals aren't less intelligent than humans, they're just of a different intelligence. We have five million smell-sensitive cells in our nose, they have two hundred and fifty million - they can smell emotion. They can smell different types of emotion, they just have another type of intelligence.
Mike Mills
Things are in the saddle, And ride mankind
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Being yourself is one of the hardest things because it's scary. You always wonder whether you'll be accepted for who you really are. I decided to call my record 'Inside Out' because that's my motto about life. I don't think you ever succeed at trying to be anyone else but who you truly are.
Emmy Rossum
I'm a believer. I don't go to church. I don't belong to any particular religion, but I do believe in God. I couldn't write what I write about and be creative without a certain form of belief.
Nick Cave
Home will always be Northern Ireland but my schedule means for the next few years I won't be there as much. I can't do the same things that I did a year ago. That is I'm something conscious of, but I'm not sad about it. It's fine.
Rory McIlroy
The present is a point just passed.
David Russell
Nothing surpasses the beauty and elegance of a bad idea.

From 1971 onwards, the Memorial Day holiday was officially observed on the last Monday in May and became the unofficial start of the summer, with barbecues, blockbuster movie openings and mattress sales.
Allen West
I reject the cynical view that politics is a dirty business.
Richard M. Nixon
It was not intended as a compliment. It was a confession. Now that I have made it, something seems to have gone out of me. Perhaps one should never put one's worship into words.
Oscar Wilde
I have relationships with people I'm working with, based on our combined interest. It doesn't make the relationship any less sincere, but it does give it a focus that may not last beyond the experience.
Harrison Ford
Education sows not seeds in you, but makes your seeds grow.
Kahlil Gibran
Don't fear the terrorists. They're mothers and fathers.
Rosie O'Donnell
But while we all pray for peace, we do not always, as free citizens, support the policies that make for peace or reject those which do not. We want our own kind of peace, brought about in our own way.
Lester B. Pearson
Happiness will come from materialism, not from meaning.
Andrei Platonov
If you're going to vote on a television contract, there is a certain rationality to saying that the same structures that are applied to Health Plan participation should be placed on the right to vote on a strike.

The need to write comes from the need to make sense of one's life and discover one's usefulness.
John Cheever
People are wrong when they think that an unemployed man only worries about losing his wages; on the contrary, an illiterate man, with the work habit in his bones, needs work even more than he needs money. An educated man can put up with enforced idleness, which is one of the worst evils of poverty. But a man like Paddy, with no means of filling up time, is as miserable out of work as a dog on the chain. That is why it is such nonsense to pretend that those who have 'come down in the world' are to be pitied above all others.The man who really merits pity is the man who has been down from the start,and faces poverty with a blank, resourceless mind.
George Orwell
If love is great, then it is worth fighting for.
Cassandra Clare
There are probably several hundred thousand if we narrow the definition to include only those who in their search for money and power are ruthless and deceitful.

Victor Hugo
It's the middle class that feels the luxury of being able to have causes.
Orson Scott Card
Conscience and cowardice are really the same things. Conscience is the trade-name of the firm. That is all.
I guess winning an Oscar is the ultimate dream. A lot of amazing actors go their whole career without even being nominated. So that would definitely be a goal to reach. It's a difficult one, but I'm aiming for it!
Taylor Lautner
Freedom comes from strength and self-reliance.
Lisa Murkowski
I'm afraid, based on my own experience, that fascism will come to America in the name of national security.
Jim Garrison
Like all my family and class, I considered it a sign of weakness to show affection to have been caught kissing my mother would have been a disgrace, and to have shown affection for my father would have been a disaster.
Agnes Smedley
People say funny things all the time during really serious moments in life.
Mark Ruffalo
It is exactly because a man cannot do a thing that he is a proper judge of it
I am little concerned with beauty or perfection. I don't care for the great centuries. All I care about is life, struggle, intensity.
Emile Zola
It's not the destination that matters. It's the change of scene.
Brian Eno
