And we should consider every day lost on which we have not danced at least once. And we should call every truth false which was not accompanied by at least one laugh.

Worry is the interest paid by those who borrow trouble.

George Washington

It ought to be illegal for an artist to marry. If the artist must marry let him find someone more interested in art, or his art, or the artist part of him, than in him. After which let them take tea together three times a week.

Ezra Pound

Nobody sees a flower really it is so small. We haven't time, and to see takes time - like to have a friend takes time.

Georgia O'Keeffe

What I like to do is try to make a difference with the work I do.

David Bowie

To regret deeply is to live afresh.

Henry David Thoreau

The most common lie is that which one lies to himself; lying to others is relatively an exception.

Friedrich Nietzsche

Things cannot always go your way. Learn to accept in silence the minor aggravations, cultivate the gift of taciturnity and consume your own smoke with an extra draught of hard work, so that those about you may not be annoyed with the dust and soot of your complaints.

William Osler

You can't stay married in a situation where you are afraid to go to sleep in case your wife might cut your throat.

Mike Tyson

There has never been a great athlete who died not knowing what pain is.

Bill Bradley

The disesteem into which moralists have fallen is due at bottom to their failure to see that in an age like this one the function of the moralist is not to exhort men to be good but to elucidate what the good is. The problem of sanctions is secondary.

Walter Lippmann

If the Nation is living within its income, its credit is good. If, in some crises, it lives beyond its income for a year or two, it can usually borrow temporarily at reasonable rates. But if, like a spendthrift, it throws discretion to the winds, and is willing to make no sacrifice at all in spending; if it extends its taxing to the limit of the peoples power to pay and continues to pile up deficits, then it is on the road to bankruptcy.

Franklin D. Roosevelt

How much of human life is lost in waiting.

Ralph Waldo Emerson
