Death ends a life, not a relationship.

Knowledge can be communicated, but wisdom cannot. A man can find it, he can live it, he can be filled and sustained by it, but he cannot utter or teach it.

Hermann Hesse

Walk a mile in my shoes is good advice. Our children will learn to respect others if they are used to imagining themselves in another's place.

Neil Kurshan

What are men to rocks and mountains?

Jane Austen

One thorn of experience is worth a whole wilderness of warning.

James Russell Lowell

One can present people with opportunities. One cannot make them equal to them.

Rosamond Lehman

I have the ability to sing with emotion and feeling, but if you say I sound like Billie Holiday, that's cool. Let's look at who Billie was: she was this person, this singer, this beautiful diva who could move the audience with the slightest gesture of her hand.

Erykah Badu

The child is father of the man.

William Wordsworth

It would be great if politics were fact-based, but it is not, and it is surely not nuance-based. What works in a classroom or a think tank does not work on Capitol Hill or in the White House. Obama sometimes seems to be running the Brookings Institution, not the country.

Jon Meacham

The reward of a thing well done is to have done it.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

People who truly love us can be divided into two categories: those who understand us, and those who forgive us our worst sins. Rarely do you find someone capable of both.

Jonathan Carroll

You see another side of Draco when he's with his dad. When Draco is with his dad, he doesn't say anything. He keeps his mouth shut. He's sort of bullied by his dad, so he acts very different.

Tom Felton

OK, so I'm not famous for the right reasons.

William Hung
