True love, to me, is when she's the first thought that goes through your head when you wake up and the last thought that goes through your head before you go to sleep.
I have discovered the art of deceiving diplomats. I tell them the truth and they never believe me.
Camillo di Cavour
Knowledge in the form of an informational commodity indispensable to productive power is already, and will continue to be, a major --perhaps the major --stake in the worldwide competition for power. It is conceivable that the nation-states will one day fight for control of information, just as they battled in the past for control over territory, and afterwards for control over access to and exploitation of raw materials and cheap labor.
Jean Francois Lyotard
Freedom can occur only through education.
Friedrich Schiller
Knowledge is and will be produced in order to be sold, it is and will be consumed in order to be valorized in a new production: in both cases, the goal is exchange. Knowledge ceases to be an end in itself, it loses its use-value.
A work can become modern only if it is first postmodern. Postmodernism thus understood is not modernism at its end but in the nascent state, and this state is constant.
When I was a kid I didn't feel like I fit in because - this is really silly and I probably shouldn't say it, but, I didn't think anything was funny. So I used to go home and literally cry to my mom and my step-dad at the time and I didn't think anything was funny. I couldn't laugh.
Courteney Cox
Eclecticism is the degree zero of contemporary general culture: one listens to reggae, watches a western, eats McDonald's food for lunch and local cuisine for dinner, wears Paris perfume in Tokyo and retro clothes in Hong Kong; knowledge is a matter for TV games. It is easy to find a public for eclectic works.
Acting can be a narrow and isolated experience, because you only examine your particular part.
Damian Lewis
For the memory of love is sweet, though the love itself were in vain. And what I have lost of pleasure, assuage what I find of pain.
Lyster
Prejudice is a burden that confuses the past, threatens the future and renders the present inaccessible.
Maya Angelou
Violence and arms can never resolve the problems of men.
Pope John Paul II
The first time you see Winston Churchill you see all his faults and the rest of your life you spend discovering his virtues.
Lady Constance Lytton
Life has no pleasure higher or nobler than that of friendship
Samuel Johnson
I'm famous for splurging at fast-food places. I'm currently obsessed with Taco Bell's bean and cheese burritos with extra green sauce and extra cheese. Gluttony!
Fergie
In science, read by preference the newest works. In literature, read the oldest. The classics are always modern.
Lord Edward Lytton
In this country it is a good thing to kill an admiral from time to time to encourage the others.
Voltaire
You are only as invincible as your smallest weakness, and those are tiny indeed - the length of a sleeping baby's eyelash, the span of a child's hand. Life turns on a dime, and - it turns out - so does one's conscience.
Jodi Picoult
Loving is the only sure road out of darkness, the only serum known that cures self-centeredness.
Roger M'Ckuen
I had become too accustomed to the pseudo-Left new style, whereby if your opponent thought he had identified your lowest possible motive, he was quite certain that he had isolated the only real one. This vulgar method, which is now the norm and the standard in much non-Left journalism as well, is designed to have the effect of making any noisy moron into a master analyst.
Christopher Hitchens
This is all you have. This is not a dry run. This is your life. If you want to fritter it away with your fears, then you will fritter it away, but you won't get it back later.
Laura Schlessinger
Precious gems are profoundly buried in the earth and can only be extracted at the expense of great labor.
Sri Anandamayi Ma
The courage of very ordinary people is all that stands between us and the dark.
Pam Brown
Acquire a firm will and the utmost patience.
With my 10 fingers and toes and perhaps 80 years of life, the enormity of time threatens the gaskets of my mind.
Chris Hadfield
Try to treat with equal love all the people with whom you have relations. Thus the abyss between 'myself' and 'yourself' will be filled in, which is the goal of all religious worship.
You can trust Charlie Crist.
Charlie Crist
The mind that does not understand is the Buddha. There is no other.
MaTsu
There is so much of good in human nature that men grow to like each other upon better acquaintance, and this points to another way in which we may strive to promote the peace of the world.
Elihu Root
Medicine makes people ill, mathematics makes them sad, and theology makes them sinful
Martin Luther King Jr.
To have a quiet mind is to possess one's mind wholly; to have a calm spirit is to possess one's self.
Hamilton Mabie
Critics, like the rest of mankind, are very frequently misled by interest
Love is inseparable from knowledge.
St. Macarius of Egypt
It takes a great man to give sound advice tactfully, but a greater to accept it graciously.
J. C. Macaulay
Don't tell fish stories where the people know you; but particularly, don't tell them where they know the fish.
Mark Twain
Never allow your own sorrow to absorb you, but seek out another to console, and you will find consolation.
Energy has become a national security issue and as technology continues to improve, there will be more debates like the one on Keystone.
Ed Royce
Keep your heart right, even when it is sorely wounded.
It is good to pray for the repair of mistakes, but praying earlier would keep us from making so many. When puzzled, go to prayer and listen.
I come now to tell you for what I am brought here to die, and to give you an account of my faith, which I shall do as in the sight of the living God before whom I am shortly to stand.
Donald Cargill
None shall rule but the humble, And none but Toil shall have
Ralph Waldo Emerson
