I can imagine few things more trying to the patience than the long wasted days of waiting.

I would love to be in musical theater and be on Broadway. If someone were to offer me a position to do something like that, I wouldnt pass it down. Im a huge fan of musicals and I really want to do that.

Michelle Branch

Like all my family and class, I considered it a sign of weakness to show affection to have been caught kissing my mother would have been a disgrace, and to have shown affection for my father would have been a disaster.

Agnes Smedley

I've noticed a lot of younger artists have less fear of doing different sorts of things, whether it's various types of music, or gallery artists moving between video and sculpture and drawing.

David Byrne

It has always seemed strange to me...The things we admire in men, kindness and generosity, openness, honesty, understanding and feeling, are the concomitants of failure in our system. And those traits we detest, sharpness, greed, acquisitiveness, meanness, egotism and self-interest, are the traits of success.

John Steinbeck, Cannery Row

Infinite love is the only truth. Everything else is illusion.

David Icke

We ought to recognize that we have an offensive responsibility to take the war to the terrorists where they are. That responsibility has waned in the last year as military and intelligence resources were withdrawn from Afghanistan and Pakistan to be used in Iraq.

Bob Graham

The songs are inspired by my experiences. Sometimes they are more than my real-life and, conversely, my life is more than just my songs.

Melissa Etheridge

There is a blessed necessity by which the interest of men is always driving them to the right; and, again, making all crime mean and ugly.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Nothing makes us so lonely as our secrets.

Paul Tournier

We never know the quality of someone else's life, though we seldom resist the temptation to assume and pass judgement.

Tami Hoag

In fast-moving, progress-conscious America, the consumer expects to be dizzied by progress. If he could completely understand advertising jargon he would be badly disappointed. The half-intelligibility which we expect, or even hope, to find in the latest product language personally reassures each of us that progress is being made: that the pace exceeds our ability to follow.

Daniel J. Boorstin

Philosophy is a battle against the bewitchment of our intelligence by means of language.

Ludwig Wittgenstein
