It is, I claim, nonsense to say that it does not matter which individual man acted as the nucleus for the change. It is precisely this that makes history unpredictable into the future.

At Home in the World is the story of a young woman, raised in some difficult circumstances, and how she survives. It tells a story of redemption, not victimhood.

Joyce Maynard

I don't want to fail, of course. But even though I didn't know how bad things really were, I still had a lot to think about before I said yes. I had to consider the implications for Pixar, for my family, for my reputation. I decided that I didn't really care, because this is what I want to do. If I try my best and fail, well, I've tried my best.

Steve Jobs

A person can stand almost anything except a succession of ordinary days.

Johann von Goethe

I'm happy and at peace with where I am at life.

Rebecca Lobo

I'm in show business... I want to hang out with Janet Jackson, not Jesse Jackson.

Chris Rock

Not that you lied to me but that I no longer believe you - that is what has distressed me.

Friedrich Nietzsche, Beyond Good

At my age, no one is married, no one has kids, no one has a career.

Lena Dunham

The major problem of life is learning how to handle the costly interruptions. The door that slams shut, the plan that got sidetracked, the marriage that failed. Or that lovely poem that didn't get written because someone knocked on the door.

Martin Luther King Jr.

The reason kids like rock 'n roll is their parents don't.

Mitch Miller

Murals in restaurants are on a par with the food in museums.

Peter De Vries

Family involvement is a valuable thing and playing together actively can be the '90s version of it. Instead of just watching, you can do it together... something we don't spend enough time on. We can motivate and excite each other about fitness.

Alan Thicke

Then about 1951 I began writing again, painfully, a novel I called in the beginning A Life Sentence on Earth, but which developed into The Tree of Man.
