America is a model of force and freedom and moderation -- with all the coarseness and rudeness of its people.

We blacks look for leadership in men and women of such youth and inexperience, as well as poverty of education and character, that it is no wonder that we sometimes seem rudderless. . . . We see basketball players and pop singers as possible role models.

Arthur Ashe

I wonder men dare trust themselves with men

William Shakespeare

No matter where you go or what you do, you live your entire life within the confines of your head.

Terry Josephson

'Sexy' is being independent, being confident and having fun.

Mollie King

It is your business when the wall next door catches fire.

Horace

A chief is a man who assumes responsibility. He says 'I was beaten,' he does not say 'My men were beaten.'

Antoine de Saint-Exupery

Art is not a thing it is a way.

Elbert Hubbard

Sometimes God dillies and dallies, and sometimes he just points at you and tells you to hang up your jock.

Stephen King

Music should be your escape.

Missy Elliot

I hope that my achievements in life shall be these -- that I will have fought for what was right and fair, that I will have risked for that which mattered, and that I will have given help to those who were in need that I will have left the earth a better place for what I've done and who I've been.

C. Hoppe

We are all bound to the throne of the Supreme Being by a flexible chain which restrains without enslaving us. The most wonderful aspect of the universal scheme of things is the action of free beings under divine guidance.

Joseph De Maistre

Do not run a campaign that would embarrass your mother.

Robert C. Byrd
