I am your anointed Queen. I will never be by violence constrained to do anything. I thank God I am endued with such qualities that if I were turned out of the Realm in my petticoat I were able to live in any place in Christendom.

God always gives His best to those who leave the choice with him.

Jim Elliot

What was a really private and nice relationship was judged and made to be something ugly.

Marla Maples

Give a girl the right shoes, and she can conquer the world.

Marilyn Monroe

You have to stay in school. You have to. You have to go to college. You have to get your degree. Because that's the one thing people can't take away from you is your education. And it is worth the investment.

Michelle Obama

Forgiveness is the fragrance that the violet sheds on the heel that has crushed it.

Mark Twain

The argument of Alcidamas: Everyone honours the wise. Thus the Parians have honoured Archilochus, in spite of his bitter tongue; the Chians Homer, though he was not their countryman; the Mytilenaeans Sappho, though she was a woman; the Lacedaemonians actually made Chilon a member of their senate, though they are the least literary of men; the inhabitants of Lampsacus gave public burial to Anaxagoras, though he was an alien, and honour him even to this day.

Aristotle

Office politics are bloody-minded, but weak on content.

Mason Cooley

When you consider all the stars I have managed, mere submarines make me smile.

Charles Frohman

A light heart lives long.

Proverb

Beauty is an outward gift, which is seldom despised, except by those to whom it has been refused.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Mark how fleeting and paltry is the estate of man--yesterday in embryo, tomorrow a mummy or ashes. So for the hairsbreadth of time assigned to thee, live rationally, and part with life cheerfully, as drops the ripe olive, extolling the season that bore it and the tree that matured it.

Marcus Aurelius

Education liberates a woman.
