If you want to see the sunshine, you have to weather the storm.
I REMEMBER WHEN ALL THIS WILL BE AGAIN.
Terry Pratchett
Never regret. If it's good, it's wonderful. If it's bad, it's experience.
Victoria Holt
Science fulfills its purpose, not when it explains the reasons for the dark spots on the sun, but when it understands and explains the laws of our own life, and the consequences of violating these laws.
Leo Tolstoy
A woman who surrenders her freedom need not surrender her dignity.
Wally Lamb
One of the dangers of the American artist is that he finds himself almost exclusively thrown in with persons more or less in the arts. He lives among them, eats among them, quarrels with them, marries them.
Thornton Wilder
I am just a dreamer, but you are just a dream
Neil Young
Humans are just barely intelligent tool users; Darwinian evolutionary selection stopped when language and tool use converged, leaving the average hairy meme carrier sadly deficient in smarts.
Charles Stross
?Kalganov ran back into the front hall, sat down in a corner, bent his head, covered his face with his hands, and began to cry. He sat like that and cried for a long time--cried as though he were still a little boy and not a man of twenty... 'What are these people, what sort of people can there be after this!' he kept exclaiming incoherently, in bitter dejection, almost in despair. At that moment he did not even want to live in the world. 'Is it worth it, is it worth it!' the grieved young man kept exclaiming.
Fyodor Dostoyevsky
A life of reaction is a life of slavery, intellectually and spiritually. One must fight for a life of action, not reaction.
Rita Mae Brown
The West is the fitting tomb for all the sorrow and the sighing, all the errors and the follies of the Past: for all its withered Hopes and all its buried Loves! From the East comes new strength, new ambition, new Hope, new Life, new Love! Look Eastward! Aye, look Eastward!
Lewis Carroll
My life was not useless; I gave important truths to the world, and it was only for want of understanding that they were disregarded. I have been ahead of my time.
Robert Owen
No longer is science asked to understand the world, or to improve any part of it. It is asked instead to immediately justify everything that happens....spectacular domination has cut down the vast tree of scientific knowledge in order to make itself a truncheon.
Guy Debord
If we have the opportunity to be generous with our hearts, ourselves, we have no idea of the depth and breadth of love's reach.
Margaret Cho
You'll be dedicated and that's what you should want to be in anything in life - whether it's sports or academics or your relationship. It all stems from finding that fun, that thrill, that excitement.
Brandi Chastain
If you have to fight a crowd of boys, it's best to go for the biggest one. That way you won't have to fight them all. The others will see that you mean business and you will win their respect.
Suzanne Vega
There are laws to protect the freedom of the press's speech, but none that are worth anything to protect the people from the press
Mark Twain
It's sad that women characters have lost so much ground in popular movies. Didn't 'Thelma and Louise' prove that women want to see women doing things on film? Thelma and Louise were in a classic car they were being chased by cops they shot up a truck - and women loved it.
Robin Quivers
Government can easily exist without laws, but law cannot exist without government.
Bertrand Russell
I don't know what you think of me. And you certainly would never picture us together. But probably peanut butter was just peanut butter for a long time, before someone ever thought of pairing it with jelly. And there was salt, but it started to taste better when there was pepper. And what's the point of butter without bread? (Why are all these examples of FOODS?!!?!?!?!?!?!) Anyway by myself I'm nothing special. But with you I could be.
Jodi Picoult
I think that it's always appropriate for Americans and for American foreign policy to make clear why we feel that self-government is most compatible with peace, the well-being of people, and human dignity.
Jeane Kirkpatrick
I found myself in a race with Mother Nature to play as much baseball as I could before she forced me to stop.
Willie Stargell
Responsibility and respect of others and their religious beliefs are also part of freedom.
Horst Koehler
I happened to say, it would be terrible if he should not find a speedy opportunity of returning to London, and be confined in so dull a place. JOHNSON: Don't, Sir, accustom yourself to use big words for little matters. It would not be terrible, though I were to be detained some time here.
Samuel Johnson
What I used to say to people, when I was much more engagé myself, is that you can't be apolitical. It will come and get you. It's not that you shouldn't be neutral. It's that you won't be able to stay neutral.
Christopher Hitchens
Love is the most terrible, and also the most generous of the passions it is the only one which includes in its dreams the happiness of someone else.
Alphonse Karr
There is a proverbial saying chiefly concerned with warning against too closely calculating the numerical value of un-hatched chicks.
Neil Gaiman
Comedy is so hard to do, so it was very cool to do dead pan humor.
Brittany Daniel
The Bush administration also was not straightforward about the intelligence it had, releasing tenuous information that fit its goal of attacking Iraq. I feel deceived.
Ken Lucas
Madam Pince, our librarian, tells me that it is 'pawed about, dribbled on, and generally maltreated' nearly everyday - a high compliment for any book.
J.K. Rowling
I am convinced we shall succeed. I have faith in this country, because I have faith in its people.
The value of a man resides in what he gives and not in what he is capable of receiving.
Albert Einstein
Earth Day 1970 was irrefutable evidence that the American people understood the environmental threat and wanted action to resolve it.
Barry Commoner
The key element in tragedy is that heroes and heroines are destroyed by that which appears to be their greatest strength.
Robert Shea
A unjust law, is no law at all.
Martin Luther King Jr.
A gentleman is someone who knows how to play the banjo and doesn't.
People would like better batteries but they are wary of making investments. What is required is both a technology push and a market pull.
Donald Sadoway
So many horrid Ghosts.
William Shakespeare
When I was a kid, I had two great guilty pleasures. One was horror movies and the other was martial arts movies.
M. Night Shyamalan
All of the sports have a safety net, but boxing is the only sport that has none. So when the fighter is through, he is through. While he was fighting his management was very excited for him, but now that he is done, that management team is moving on.
Gerry Cooney
High school music teachers... nobody makes a living off it.
