Oh, God! that bread should be so dear! And flesh and blood so cheap!

Thomas Hood

Beautiful songs could sometimes take a person out of themselves and carry them away to a place of magic. But when Jill sang, it was not about the song, really. She could sing the phone book. She could sing a shopping list. Whatever she sang, whatever the words or the tune, it was so beautiful, so achingly lovely, that no one could listen and be untouched.

I am exceedingly anxious that this Union, the Constitution, and the liberties of the people shall be perpetuated in accordance with the original idea for which that struggle was made, and I shall be most happy indeed if I shall be an humble instrument in the hands of the Almighty, and of this, his almost chosen people, for perpetuating the object of that great struggle.

Did it not symbolize the eternal, unvarying triumph of Good over Evil? The huge face gazed back at him, full of calm power. White always mates.

George Orwell

I wonder how many people don't get the one they want, but end up with the one they're supposed to be with.

Fannie Flagg

It's funny that it all becomes about clothes. It's bizarre. You work your butt off and then you win an award and it's all about your dress. You can't get away from it.

Reese Witherspoon

The fact my relationship with my son is so good makes me forgiving of my father and also appreciative.

Anthony Kiedis

Pleasant words are as an honeycomb, sweet to the soul, and health to the bones.
