Angling may be said to be so like the mathematics that it can never be fully learned.

Children are unpredictable. You never know what inconsistency they're going to catch you in next.

Franklin P. Jones

I got a lot of support from my parents. That's the one thing I always appreciated. They didn't tell me I was being stupid they told me I was being funny.

Jim Carrey

To take a photograph is to participate in another person's mortality, vulnerability, mutability. Precisely by slicing out this moment and freezing it, all photographs testify to time's relentless melt.

Susan Sontag

You cannot love a thing without wanting to fight for it.

G. K. Chesterton

The person who deserves most pity is a lonesome one on a rainy day who doesn't know how to read.

Benjamin Franklin

Creatures are not born with desires unless satisfaction for those desires exists. A baby feels hunger: well, there is such a thing as food. A duckling wants to swim: well, there is such a thing as water. Men feel sexual desire: well, there is such a thing as sex. If I find in myself a desire which no experience in this world can satisfy, the most probable explanation is that I was made for anot...her world. If none of my earthly pleasures satisfy it, that does not prove that the universe is a fraud. Probably earthly pleasures were never meant to satisfy it, but only to arouse it, to suggest the real thing. If that is so, I must take care, on the one hand, never to despise, or be unthankful for, these earthly blessings, and on the other, never to mistake them for the something else of which they are only a kind of copy, or echo, or mirage. I must keep alive in myself the desire for my true country, which I shall not find until after death; I must never let it get snowed under or turned aside; I must make it the main object of life to press on to that other country and to help others do the same.

C.S. Lewis

Autobiographies are only useful as the lives you read about and analyze may suggest to you something that you may find useful in your own journey through life.

Eleanor Roosevelt

There are plenty of eyewitness accounts, just because you're so narrow-minded you need to have everything shoved under your nose before you-

J.K. Rowling

You don't get ulcers from what you eat. You get them from what's eating you.

Vicki Baum

I never hurt nobody but myself and that's nobody's business but my own.

Billie Holiday

Books are like a mirror. If an ass looks in, you can't expect an angel to look out.

Arthur Schopenhauer

Laughing is not always the proof of a mind at ease.
