I accept the Old Testament as more of an action movie: blood, car chases, evacuations, a lot of special effects, seas dividing, mass murder, adultery. The children of God are running amok, wayward. Maybe that's why they're so relatable.

Waiting is painful. Forgetting is painful. But not knowing which to do is the worse kind of suffering.

Paulo Coelho

Lots of folks confuse bad management with destiny.

Kin Hubbard

Human kindness has never weakened the stamina or softened the fiber of a free people. A nation does not have to be cruel in order to be tough.

Franklin D. Roosevelt

The scrupulous and the just, the noble, humane, and devoted natures; the unselfish and the intelligent may begin a movement -- but it passes away from them. They are not the leaders of a revolution. They are its victims.

Joseph Conrad

It is inevitable that some defeat will enter even the most victorious life. The human spirit is never finished when it is defeated...it is finished when it surrenders.

Ben Stein

I know many books which have bored their readers, but I know of none which has done real evil.

Voltaire

And actually, about three weeks ago, Micky, Peter and I were in Vegas at the MGM Grand. And we did about 12 shows in seven days. It was quite an experience.

Davy Jones

My love, can't you seehow much i love theeFor i through your eyesshall seeOur great lovefor all eternity

Amal Sagheer

Simplicity of character is no hindrance to subtlety of intellect.

John Morley, Life of Gladstone,

I met in the street a very poor young man who was in love. His hat was old, his coat worn, his cloak was out at the elbows, the water passed through his shoes -- and the stars through his soul.

Victor Hugo

Be good, be kind, be humane, and charitable; love your fellows; console the afflicted; pardon those who have done you wrong.

Zoroaster

Refining is inevitable in science when you have made measurements of a phenomenon for a long period of time.

Charles Francis Richter
