As a bathtub lined with white porcelain, when the hot water gives out or goes tepid, so is the slow cooling of our chivalrous passion, o my much praised but-not-altogether-satisfactory lady.

My family has very strong women. My mother never laughed at my dream of Africa, even though everyone else did because we didn't have any money, because Africa was the 'dark continent', and because I was a girl.

Jane Goodall

Distrust everyone in whom the impulse to punish is powerful!

Friedrich Nietzsche

Manusia tidak akan dapat menuai cinta sampai dia merasakan perpisahan yang menyedihkan, dan yang mampu membuka pikirannya, merasakan kesabaran yang pahit dan kesulitan yang menyedihkan

Kahlil Gibran

The summer day is closed - the sun is set:Well they have done their office, those bright hours,The latest of whose train goes softly outIn the red west. The green blade of the groundHas risen, and herds have cropped it; the young twigHas spread its plaited tissues to the sun;Flowers of the garden and the waste have blownAnd withered; seeds have fallen upon the soil,From bursting cells, and in their graves awaitTheir resurrection. Insects from the poolsHave filled the air awhile with humming wings,That now are still for ever; painted mothsHave wandered the blue sky, and died again

William Cullen Bryant, An Evenin

Martin Luther King Jr.

It's better to be an authentic loser than a false success, and to die alive than to live dead.

William Markiewicz

That's a tough question I've been acting since I was 10. My dad was an entrepreneur, so I guess something along those lines. I wouldn't want a 9-5 job.

Will Estes

Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go.

T. S. Eliot

Power is what men seek and any group that gets it will abuse it.

Lincoln Steffens

All great men are gifted with intuition. They know without reasoning or analysis, what they need to know.

Alexis Carrel
