We cannot cheat on DNA. We cannot get round photosynthesis. We cannot say I am not going to give a damn about phytoplankton. All these tiny mechanisms provide the preconditions of our planetary life. To say we do not care is to say in the most literal sense that we choose death.

The future, like everything else, is not what it used to be.

Paul Valery

It's the opinion of some that crops could be grown on the moon which raises the fear that it may not be long before we're paying somebody not to.

Franklin P. Jones

Faint hearts never win fair ladies.

Danish proverb

It didn't matter how big our house was; it mattered that there was love in it.

Peter Buffett

He types his labored column -- weary drudge! Senile fudge and solemn: spare, editor, to condemn these dry leaves of his autumn.

Robertson Davies

Our concern must be to live while we're alive... to release our inner selves from the spiritual death that comes with living behind a facade designed to conform to external definitions of who and what we are.

Elisabeth KublerRoss

Living here on Earth, we breathe the rhythms of a universe that extends infinitely above us. When resonant harmonies arise between this vast outer cosmos and the inner human cosmos, poetry is born.

Daisaku Ikeda

Men are like the stars some generate their own light while others reflect the brilliance they receive.

Jose Marti

I've created, directed and choreographed for Lady Gaga since the beginning, so 'Born This Way,' this was musically such an amazing evolution and such a brilliant record. So when she played it for me, it took me a while to find out the visual interpretation that I could give back to her.

Laurieann Gibson

Unless a serpent devour a serpent it will not become a dragon. Unless one power absorb another, it will not become great.

Proverb

To us marriage is first, everything else is second.

Julie Benz
