What we can do for another is the test of powers. What we can suffer for is the test of love.

The whole past is the procession of the present.

Thomas Carlyle

Man is never honestly the fatalist, nor even the stoic. He fights his fate, often desperately. He is forever entering bold exceptions to the rulings of the bench of gods. This fighting, no doubt, makes for human progress, for it favors the strong and the brave. It also makes for beauty, for lesser men try to escape from a hopeless and intolerable world by creating a more lovely one of their own.

H. L. Mencken

Stop just cheering for others who are living their visions. Commit yourself to your own success and follow the steps required to achieve it.

Steve Maraboli

The owners don't win by having a lockout. Shutting down your business is not good for anybody and it's certainly not good for the players, it's certainly not good for the fans. And that's most important to us.

Roger Goodell

I couldn't claim that I have never felt the urge to explore evil, but when you descend into hell you have to be very careful.

Kathleen Raine

Conformity, humility, acceptance... with these coins we are to pay our fares to paradise.

Robert Lindner

Dancing through life is knowing where to put the next foot next.

Roger W Hancock

I really don't know why it is that all of us are so committed to the sea, except I think it is because in addition to the fact that the sea changes and the light changes, and ships change, it is because we all came from the sea. And it is an interesting biological fact that all of us have, in our veins the exact same percentage of salt in our blood that exists in the ocean, and, therefore, we have salt in our blood, in our sweat, in our tears. We are tied to the ocean. And when we go back to the sea, whether it is to sail or to watch it, we are going back from whence we came.

John Fitzgerald Kennedy, Remarks

People need to understand that the Lauryn Hill they were exposed to in the beginning was all that was allowed in that arena at the time. I had to step away for the sake of the machine. I was being way too compromised. I felt uncomfortable having to smile in someone's face when I really didn't like them or know them well enough to like.

Lauryn Hill

Eventually, we reach the point where we start to realize that we are not going to find peace, contentment, happiness, strength, fearlessness - all of the things that in our heart of hearts we wish we had - outside of us.

Guy Finley

Any sufficiently advanced bug is indistinguishable from a feature.

Rich Kulawiec

Faith is to believe what you do not see the reward of this faith is to see what you believe.

Saint Augustine
