I beg Osama to stop warring. He is a Muslim, and Islam means peace. Nobody wins in a war... I wish I were tapped in the problem about Iraq. I knew Saddam enough that I could have talked him into surrendering. But it's too late.

You may not accomplish every goal you set -- no one does -- but what really matters is having goals and going after them wholeheartedly.

Les Brown

Politics can be relatively fair in the breathing spaces of history; at its critical turning points there is no other rule possible than the old one, that the end justifies the means.

Arthur Koestler

The heart's memory eliminates the bad and magnifies the good.

Gabriel Garcia Marquez

If there are men in this country big enough to own the government of the United States, they are going to own it.

Woodrow Wilson

Marriage is an institution and that's where a couple finish up.

Les Dawson

You matter as much as the things that matter to you. And I got so backwards trying to matter to him. All this time, there were real things to care about: real, good people who care about me, and this place. It's so easy to get stuck. You just get caught in being something, being special or cool or whatever, to the point where you don't even know why you need it; you just think you do.

John Green

A wit should no more be sincere, than a woman constant; one argues a decay of parts, as to other of beauty.

William Congreve

The notion of this universe, its heavens, hells, and everything within it, as a great dream dreamed by a single being in which all the dream characters are dreaming too, has in India enchanted and shaped the entire civilization. The ultimate dreamer is Vishnu floating on the cosmic Milky Ocean, couched upon the coils of the abyssal serpent Ananta, the meaning of whose name is Unending. In the foreground stand the five Pandava brothers, heroes of the epic Mahabharata, with Draupadi, their wife: allegorically , she is the mind and they are the five senses. They are those whom the dream is dreaming. Eyes open, ready and willing to fight, the youths address themselves to this world of light in which we stand regarding them, where objects appear to be distinct from each other, and an Aristotelian logic prevails, and A is not not-A. Behind them a dream-door has opened, however, to an inward, backward dimension where a vision emerges against darkness...

Joseph Campbell, The Mythic Imag

Teach us to care and not to care. Teach us to sit still.

George Eliot

Push yourself to do more and to experience more. Harness your energy to start expanding your dreams. Yes, expand your dreams. Don't accept a life of mediocrity when you hold such infinite potential within the fortress of your mind. Dare to tap into your greatness.

Robin S. Sharma

The equation of religion with belief is rather recent.

Arnold J. Toynbee

I feel that the simplicity of life is just being yourself.

Bobby Brown
