It is not always possible to do away with negative thinking, but with persistence and practice, one can gain mastery over them so that they do not take the upper hand.

Who so desireth to know what will be hereafter, let him think of what is past, for the world hath ever been in a circular revolution; whatsoever is now, was heretofore; and things past or present, are no other than such as shall be again: Redit orbis in orbem.

Sir Walter Raleigh

Motherhood has completely changed me. It's just about like the most completely humbling experience that I've ever had. I think that it puts you in your place because it really forces you to address the issues that you claim to believe in and if you can't stand up to those principles when you're raising a child, forget it.

Diane Keaton

She gave up beauty in her tender youth, gave all her hope and joy and pleasant ways she covered up her eyes lest they should gaze on vanity, and chose the bitter truth.

Christina Rossetti

I had a great interest in sports. I had three older brothers who were great athletes. I was not.

George J. Mitchell

If you realize you aren't so wise today as you thought you were yesterday, you're wiser today

Olin Miller

Why not share with the world the way it is and tell them my feelings about my cat, and how I played with my kids, and how addicted to Christmas time I am, and the smell of pine needles and hearing my kids laugh.

Steven Tyler

Never look down to test the ground before taking your next step; only those who keep their eye fixed on the far horizon will find their right road.

Dag Hammarskjold

The two elements the traveler first captures in the big city are extra human architecture and furious rhythm. Geometry and anguish.

Federico Garcia Lorca

You know being relevant or coming up with something interesting, funny to say about what's current is just as hard as it might ever be depending on the serendipity of it all.

Lily Tomlin

Time did not compose her.

Jane Austen

Like all dreamers, I mistook disenchantment for truth.

Jean-Paul Sartre

The most tragic thing in the world is a man of genius who is not a man of honor

George Bernard Shaw
