Absolutely, there is a connection between food and love. I always say, when there's love in my heart or I'm feeling particularly good, the food comes out that much better. And so I think Valentine's Day is a special day.

If you're happy, if you're feeling good, then nothing else matters.

Robin Wright Penn

You young people can lend your bodies now, play with them, give them as we could not. But remember that you have paid a price: that of a world rich in mystery and delicate emotion. It is not only species of animal that die out. But whole species of feelings. And if you are wise, you will never pity the past for what it did not know. But pity yourself for what it did.

John Fowles, The Magus

The man who writes about himself and his own time is the only man who writes about all people and about all time.

George Bernard Shaw

Slow and steady wins the race.

Aesop

Sir Walter, with his 61 years of life, although he never wrote a novel until he was over 40, had, fortunately for the world, a longer working career than most of his brethren.

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

There is nothing in which people more betray their character than in what they laugh at.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Ambition is not what man does... but what man would do.

Robert Browning

Half a man's wisdom goes with his courage.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Male supremacy is fused into the language, so that every sentence both heralds and affirms it.

Andrea Dworkin

I wasn't in school often enough to really belong to a 'clique,' but my friends all studied hard and got pretty good grades. They were good people with self-respect. I still like to be friends with people I admire something about I really believe that we become like the people we're surrounded by, so I choose my friends carefully!

Danica McKellar

I believe we have become paralyzed, paralyzed by our desire to be loved. Now our founding fathers had the wisdom to know that social acceptance and popularity were fleeing, and that this country's principles needed to be rooted in strengths greater than the passions and the emotions of the times.

Chris Christie

An' I don't want much outa life, I never wanted a mansion in the south. I just-a want to find someone sincere Who'd treat me like he talks, One good man.

Janis Joplin
