Creative minds have always been known to survive any kind of bad training.

Childhood shows the man, as morning shows the day.

John Milton

For such an advanced civilization as ours to be without images that are adequate to it is as serious a defect as being without memory.

Werner Herzog

It seems to be a law of nature that no man, unless he has some obvious physical deformity, ever is loth to sit for his portrait.

Max Beerbohm

No llegaremos nunca a conseguir una sociedad cristiana hasta que la mayoría de nosotros lo desee de verdad. Y no lo desearemos de verdad hasta que nos hagamos totalmente cristianos.

C.S. Lewis

I just worry a lot. I'm a worrier. Michelle and Barack are really dear to me. I mean, I love them. And I don't want to see them get hurt. Just the nature of politics is hurtful. So every time they are hurt, I get hurt. It's a lot to ask of people, and it's a lot to see your friends go through. It's hard not to get emotional.

Valerie Jarrett

A graduation ceremony is an event where the commencement speaker tells thousands of students dressed in identical caps and gowns that 'individuality' is the key to success.

Robert Orben

Life's errors cry for the merciful beauty that can modulate their isolation into a harmony with the whole.

Rabindranath Tagore

Those who already walk submissively will say there is no cause for alarm. But submissiveness is not our heritage. The First Amendment was designed to allow rebellion to remain as our heritage. The Constitution was designed to keep government off the backs of the people. The Bill of Rights was added to keep the precincts of belief and expression, of the press, of political and social activities free from surveillance. The Bill of Rights was designed to keep agents of government and official eavesdroppers away from assemblies of people. The aim was to allow men to be free and independent and to assert their rights against government.

William O. Douglas, Laird v. Tat

Cinderella? Snow White? What's that? An illness?

J.K. Rowling

The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, the education, the money, than circumstances, than failure, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company... a church... a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. And so it is with you... we are in charge of our Attitudes.

Charles Swindoll

Politics is not about power.

Paul Wellstone

I was trying to do too many things at the same time, which is my nature. But I was enjoying it, and I still do enjoy it.

Jimi Hendrix
