Ciascuno esamini i propri pensieri: li trover? sempre occupati dal passato e dall'avvenire. Non pensiamo quasi mai al presente, o se ci pensiamo, è solo per prenderne lume al fine di predisporre l'avvenire. Il presente non è mai il nostro fine: il passato o il presente sono i nostri mezzi; solo l'avvenire è il nostro fine. Così non viviamo mai, ma speriamo di vivere, e, preparandoci sempre ad essere felici, è inevitabile che non siamo mai tali.

My health is very much improved.

Lech Walesa

Where ambition can cover its enterprises, even to the person himself, under the appearance of principle, it is the most incurable and inflexible of passions.

David Hume

I am responsible for everything except for my very responsibility, for I am not the foundation of my being. Therefore everything takes place as if I were compelled to be responsible. I am abandoned in the world... in the sense that I find myself suddenly alone and without help, engaged in a world for which I bear the whole responsibility without being able, whatever I do, to tear myself away from this responsibility for an instant.

JeanPaul Sartre

All my life, my heart has yearned for a thing I cannot name.

Andre Breton

Now and then an innocent man is sent to the legislature.

Kin Hubbard

In every truth, the beneficiaries of a system cannot be expected to destroy it.

A. Philip Randolph

As far as I'm concerned, there's no job more important on the planet than being a mom.

Mark Wahlberg

Act the way you'd like to be and soon you'll be the way you act.

George W. Crane

Miracles happen everyday, change your perception of what a miracle is and you'll see them all around you.

Jon Bon Jovi

Falsehood is easy, truth so difficult.

George Eliot

That's always seemed so ridiculous to me, that people would want to be around someone because they're pretty. It's like picking your breakfast cereals based on color instead of taste.

John Green

I have a desire to create more film, more beauty, more art, more love, but I don't feel desperate. It's not about creating or building a career.

Lisa Bonet
