I bought some batteries, but they weren't included.

He is armed without who is innocent within, be this thy screen, and this thy wall of brass.

Horace

If I had a formula for bypassing trouble, I would not pass it around. Trouble creates a capacity to handle it. I don't embrace trouble; that's as bad as treating it as an enemy. But I do say: meet it as a friend, for you'll see a lot of it, and had better be on speaking terms with it.

Oliver Wendell Holmes

And finally I twist my heart round again, so that the bad is on the outside and the good is on the inside, and keep on trying to find a way of becoming what I would so like to be, and could be, if there weren't any other people living in the world.

Anne Frank

The human body is the best picture of the human soul.

Ludwig Wittgenstein

I'm a writer. I don't support any war. That's my principle.

Haruki Murakami

And as long as you're subject to birth and death, you'll never attain enlightenment.

Bodhidharma

That's what you want to do? Then nothing beats a trial but a failure. Give it everything you've got. I've told you many times, 'Cant do is like Dont Care.' Neither of them have a home.

Maya Angelou

There is no happiness in life, there is no misery like that growing out of the dispositions which consecrate or desecrate a home.

Edwin Hubbell Chapin

A man must pay the fiddler, in my case it so happened that a whole symphony orchestra often had to be subsidized.

John Barrymore

We have been working with Habitat for Humanity and we have built eighty homes, 80% of which are being lived in by New Orleans' musicians. It is called the Musicians' Village and at the center is the Ellis Marsalis Center for Music.

Harry Connick, Jr.

Los humanos podemos resultar difíciles cuando sufrimos por un ser querido

Cassandra Clare

I have the same sense of the power and virtue of knowledge that some people get from a religious background.

Walter Gilbert
