A college education never hurt anybody who was willing to learn after he got it.

The sparks fly in his face.

Benjamin Franklin

The movies I watch and the music I listen to and the books I read - those are important to me. It's very important to me, and I don't know what I would do without those things.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt

The person of intellect is lost unless they unite with energy of character. When we have the lantern of Diogenese we must also have his staff.

Sebastian Roch Nicolas Chamfort

If ever you feel like an animal among men, be a lion.

Criss Jami

The path of least resistance and least trouble is a mental rut already made. It requires troublesome work to undertake the alternation of old beliefs. Self-conceit often regards it as a sign of weakness to admit that a belief to which we have once committed ourselves is wrong. We get so identified with an idea that it is literally a pet notion and we rise to its defense and stop our eyes and ears to anything different.

John Dewey

Death is like an arrow that is already in flight, and your life lasts only until it reaches you.

Georg Hermes

I have found there are four steps to change. 1. You must want it. 2. You must believe it. 3. You must live it. 4. You will become it.

Glenn Beck

Hope is a good breakfast but a bad supper.

Francis Bacon

I have in sincerity pledged myself to your service, as so many of you are pledged to mine. Throughout all my life and with all my heart I shall strive to be worthy of your trust.

Queen Elizabeth II

In any society, the artist has a responsibility. His effectiveness is certainly limited and a painter or writer cannot change the world. But they can keep an essential margin of non-conformity alive. Thanks to them the powerful can never affirm that everyone agrees with their acts. That small difference is important.

Luis Bunuel

No free people ever existed, or can ever exist, without keeping the purse strings in their own hands. Where this is the case, they have a constitutional check upon the administration, which may thereby by brought into order without violence. But when such a power is not lodged in the people, oppression proceeds uncontrolled in its career, till the governed, transported into rage, seek redress in the midst of blood and confusion.

John Dickinson

A biblical woman embraces God's callings, chooses wisely, lives courageously, and expects God's greater reward.
