David Cameron

Fear not the path of Truth for the lack of People walking on it.

Robert F. Kennedy

In England and America people tend to graze all day long, but I think it's such a waste to be constantly picking at food because you then can't enjoy a proper full meal when the time comes.

Nigella Lawson

To have his path made clear for him is the aspiration of every human being in our beclouded and tempestuous existence.

Joseph Conrad

Should you shield the canyons from the windstorms you would never see the true beauty of their carvings.

Elisabeth Kubler-Ross

The sadness of the incomplete, the sadness that is often Life, but should never be Art.

E. M. Forster

Let not thy will roar, when thy power can but whisper.

Thomas Fuller

I left the ending ambiguous, because that is the way life is.

Bernardo Bertolucci

David Sedaris

Hiding from your history only shackles you to it. Instead, face it and free yourself.

Steve Maraboli

Happiness is brief. It will not stay. God batters at its sails.

Euripides
