Bob Dylan has always sealed his decisions with the unexplainable. His motives for withholding the release of the magnificent 'Basement Tapes' will be as forever obscure as Brian Wilson's reasons for the destruction of the tapes for 'Smile.'

Beauty is only skin deep, but ugly goes clean to the bone

Dorothy Parker

Every great mistake has a halfway moment, a split second when it can be recalled and perhaps remedied.

Pearl Buck

Everyone is a prisoner of his own experiences. No one can eliminate prejudices - just recognize them.

Edward R. Murrow

If we have not quiet in our minds, outward comfort will do no more for us than a golden slipper on a gouty foot.

John Bunyan

I opened my own restaurant when I was 17. I went broke, then traveled around the country, learning about different kinds of foods, had three other restaurants that went broke. It didn't all start just a few years ago!

Paul Prudhomme

Well, I'll tell you something, this wedding is something that I will always, always cherish. It was a show of love and support and kindness like I'd never seen from the people, and that's who I entertain. I entertain the people.

Liza Minnelli

Faithful servants never retire. You can retire from your career, but you will never retire from serving God.

Rick Warren

Life has two choices: create or destruct. These choices are the backbone for all, within oneself and outside oneself. Too many ways of thinking are described by too many people that have no idea. If you're attached to your ways then detach, so you can change. Use this detachment in your writing, relationships, and understanding of life. Our future as individuals, as nations, and as mankind can only go one way. It's our choice whether we want the painful path or the peaceful path.

Mark O'Brien

There is no shame in finding someone else to be attractive, or good company. Even if they don't like you, there is still no shame. If you happen to be fond of someone, and they're not fond of you, it's OK.. You don't have to wait and see if they'll love you back. You can announce it.. Joy in life comes from expressing ourselves, in taking risks and jumping in. Everyone is not going to like you. But you can like who you like.

Andrew Matthews

Peace if possible, truth at all costs.

Martin Luther

NO!The scream was the more terrible because he had never expected or dreamed that Professor McGonagall could make such a sound.

J.K. Rowling

Although our intellect always longs for clarity and certainty, our nature often finds uncertainty fascinating.

Karl Von Clausewitz
