My dad was a Communist Party member who fought for his country.

The first few weeks football players look at you like you are speaking a foreign language. My job is to get them to trust me, trust the system. I ask them to run in a way that makes no sense to them.

Our goal is to make the best devices in the world, not to be the biggest.

Steve Jobs

Human beings are the only ones in nature who are aware that they will die. For that reason and only for that reason, I have a profound respect for the human race, and I believe that its future is going to be much better than its present. Even knowing that their days are numbered and that everything will end when they least expect it, people make of their lives a battle that is worthy of a being with eternal life. What people regard as vanity-leaving great works, having children, acting in such a way as to prevent one's name from being forgotten- I regard as the highest expression of human dignity.

Paulo Coelho

Success depends on our using, and not opposing...

Thomas Troward

Law is not a profession at all, but rather a business service station and repair shop.

Adlai E. Stevenson

I don't have to participate in another culture's ceremonies in order to respect that culture.

Sherman Alexie

I think that enduring, committed love between a married couple, along with raising children, is the most noble act anyone can aspire to. It is not written about very much.

Nicholas Sparks

Singing when no one else is around is always good. I especially like belters. Good, loud singing is probably better medicine than half the stuff they sell in pill bottles, and it's cheaper, too. I also think people should never turn down an opportunity to hold a baby. There's something about the feel of a new baby in your arms that just fixes you.

Erin McKean

There's a little truth in all jive, and a little jive in all truth.

Leonard Barnes

We cannot live only for ourselves. A thousand fibers connect us with others; and along those fibers, as sympathetic threads, our actions run as causes, and they come back to us as effects.

Herman Melville
