Constant dropping wears away stones

Without economic development, any potential for political openness and freedom will be questionable.

Jose Maria Aznar

It's hard for women who make a lot of money and make decisions all day long, then they have to come home and be 'Stupid Sally.' Men need respect, and they need to know that they can lead in the relationship, so even if they don't make the most money they need to be able to call the shots.

Patti Stanger

Let it be your constant method to look into the design of people's actions, and see what they would be at, as often as it is practicable; and to make this custom the more significant, practice it first upon yourself.

Marcus Aurelius

In many walks of life, a conscience is a more expensive encumbrance than a wife or a carriage.

Thomas De Quincey

To love oneself is the beginning of a life-long romance.

Oscar Wilde

To enjoy being famous, you need to have a screw loose.

Diablo Cody

She gave her husband such a night of sexual pleasure that his eyes followed her constantly after that, narrow and hot. He grew molten when she passed near other men, and at night they made their own shaking tent. They got teased too much and moved farther off, into the brush, into the nesting ground of shy and holy loons. There, no one could hear them. In solitude they made love until they became gaunt and hungry, pale windigos with aching eyes, tongues of flame.

Louise Erdrich

I wish I could know everything ever, like that would be my wish - that's what I hope heaven is, that they tell you who shot JFK and all that stuff.

Louis C. K.

I frequently observe that one pretty face would be followed by five and thirty frights.

Jane Austen

I'm not angry, I'm not an angry person, but I do sometimes like playing with the perception of anger, as in pretending that I'm more angry than I actually am, and sometimes it works quite well.

Calvin Harris

You can't run a business or anything else on a theory.

Harold S. Geneen

Generosity is giving more than you can, and pride is taking less than you need.

Kahlil Gibran
