Who controls the past controls the future: who controls the present controls the past.

Yes, but I don't think of the Teen Angel as of an age.

Frankie Avalon

The pure, the bright, The beautiful that stirred our hearts in youth,The impulses to wordless prayer,The streams of love and truth,The longing after something lost,The spirit's yearning cry,The striving after better hopes;These things can never die.The timid hand stretched forth to aid a brother in his need,A kindly word in grief's dark hour that proves a friend indeed;The plea for mercy softly breathed,When justice threatens high,The sorrow of a contrite heart;These things shall never die, shall never die.Let nothing pass,For every hand must find some work to do,Lose not a chance to waken love.Be firm and just and true,So shall a light that cannot fade beam on thee from on high,And angel voices say to thee;These things can never die.

Charles Dickens

Having an eye for beauty isn't the same thing as a weakness...except possibly when it comes to you.

Suzanne Collins

Not everything which is bad comes to hurt us.

Italian Proverb

The pursuit of knowledge is, I think, mainly actuated by love of power

Bertrand Russell

In choosing a mate, don't pick the tallest and most handsome or the most beautiful. Don't choose one just because that person raises your physical passions. Look for the person who is good from within, the one with substance and worth.

Helen Quist Milligan

Each day provides its own gifts.

Marcus Aurelius

It is a pure soul who can hold true the in­no­cence and time­less­ness of pas­sion in an­oth­er soul. Each un­veil­ing the great­est pieces of the oth­er, locked to­geth­er at the heart for eter­ni­ty

Christine Zolendz

Dreaming is an act of pure imagination, attesting in all men a creative power, which, if it were available in waking, would make every man a Dante or Shakespeare.

Francis Herbert Hedge

Nonviolence is the first article of my faith. It is also the last article of my creed.

Mahatma Gandhi

Success comes from knowing that you did your best to become the best that you are capable of becoming.

John Wooden

Prince or commoner, tenor or bass,Painter or plumber or never-do-well,Do me a favor and shut your face -Poets alone should kiss and tell.
