I can levitate birds. No one cares.

Language, the machine of the poet, is best fitted for his purpose in its rudest state. Nations, like individuals, first perceive, and then abstract. They advance from particular images to general terms. Hence the vocabulary of an enlightened society is philosophical, that of a half-civilized people is poetical.

Thomas Babington Macaulay

There’s a crack (or cracks) in everyone…that’s how the light of God gets in.

Elizabeth Gilbert

I feel monotony and death to be almost the same.

Charlotte Bronte

Learning is the beginning of wealth. Learning is the beginning of health. Learning is the beginning of spirituality. Searching and learning is where the miracle process all begins.

Jim Rohn

It is almost as if you were frantically constructing another world while the world that you live in dissolves beneath your feet, and that your survival depends on completing this construction at least one second before the old habitation collapses.

Tennessee (Thomas Lanier) Willia

The Roman Republic fell, not because of the ambition of Caesar or Augustus, but because it had already long ceased to be in any real sense a republic at all. When the sturdy Roman plebeian, who lived by his own labor, who voted without reward according to his own convictions, and who with his fellows formed in war the terrible Roman legion, had been changed into an idle creature who craved nothing in life save the gratification of a thirst for vapid excitement, who was fed by the state, and who directly or indirectly sold his vote to the highest bidder, then the end of the republic was at hand, and nothing could save it. The laws were the same as they had been, but the people behind the laws had changed, and so the laws counted for nothing.

Theodore Roosevelt

Law describes the way things would work if men were angels.

Christopher Dawson

Everybody's got one killer story. It doesn't take talent to tell that story, it just takes experience.

Kevin Smith

Some people say my humor focuses too much on stereotypes. It doesn't. It focuses on facts.

Sarah Silverman

God did not create evil. Just as darkness is the absence of light, evil is the absence of God.

Albert Einstein

The most incomprehensible thing about the world is that it is comprehensible.

Albert Einstein

I'm not in search of sanctity, sacredness, purity; these things are found after this life, not in this life; but in this life I search to be completely human: to feel, to give, to take, to laugh, to get lost, to be found, to dance, to love and to lust, to be so human.
