A desire arises in the mind. It is satisfied immediately another comes. In the interval which separates two desires a perfect calm reigns in the mind. It is at this moment freed from all thought, love or hate. Complete peace equally reigns between two mental waves.

It is rare indeed that people give. Most people guard and keep; they suppose that it is they themselves and what they identify with themselves that they are guarding and keeping, whereas what they are actually guarding and keeping is their system of reality and what they assume themselves to be.

James Baldwin

Marriage is neither heaven nor hell, it is simply purgatory.

Abraham Lincoln

People say nothing is impossible, but I do nothing every day.

A.A. Milne

Everyone who is successful must have dreamed of something.

American Indian Proverb, Maricop

Make a memory with your children, Spend some time to show you care; Toys and trinkets can't replace those Precious moments that you share. Money doesn't buy real pleasure, It doesn't matter where you live; Children need your own attention, Something only you can give. Childhood's days pass all too quickly, Happy memories all too few; Plan to do that special something, Take the time to go or do. Make a memory with your children, Take the time in busy days; Have some fun while they are growing, Show your love in gentle ways.

Elaine Hardt, Make a Memory

If we didn't live venturously, plucking the wild goat by the beard, and trembling over precipices, we should never be depressed, I've no doubt; but already should be faded, fatalistic and aged.

Virginia Woolf

Andrew Cuomo

Intelligence agencies keep things secret because they often violate the rule of law or of good behavior.

Julian Assange

If you have good sex, you've done a lot right in life.

The work of many of the greatest men, inspired by duty, has been done amidst suffering and trial and difficulty. They have struggled against the tide, and reached the shore exhausted.

You have to learn the rules of the game. And then you have to play better than anyone else.

Albert Einstein
