Difficulties are things that show a person what they are.

I do, I am

Benny Bellamacina

A man at work, making something which he feels will exist because he is working at it and wills it, is exercising the energies of his mind and soul as well as of his body. Memory and imagination help him as he works. Not only his own thoughts, but the thoughts of the men of past ages guide his hands; and, as part of the human race, he creates. If we work thus we shall be men, and our days will be happy and eventful.

William Morris

It is, therefore, with the sincerest pleasure I have observed on the part of the British government various manifestations of a just and friendly disposition towards us; we wish to cultivate peace and friendship with all nations, believing that course most conducive to the welfare of our own; it is natural that these friendships should bear some proportion to the common interests of the parties.

Thomas Jefferson

Odd how the creative power at once brings the whole universe to order.

Virginia Woolf

Get in touch with your passion and put it to work at work.

Marilyn Suttle

Wisdom is better than weapons of war: but one sinner destroyeth much good.

Bible

My mom raised us three boys by herself on welfare. It's not worse than anybody else's life.

Jeffrey Donovan

I am so sick of reading about another car bomb, another suicide bomber, another 10, 20, 30, 70, 100 people dead in a day, both Americans and Iraqis.

Rosanne Cash

But, I don't think any arranger should ever write a drum part for a drummer because if a drummer can't create his own Interpretation of the chart and he plays everything that's written, he becomes mechanical he has no freedom.

Buddy Rich

When one by one our ties are torn, and friend from friend is snatched forlorn; When man is left alone to mourn, oh! then how sweet it is to die!

Anna Letitia Barbauld

Give time time.

Paulo Coelho

Pride perceiving humility honorable, often borrows her cloak.

Thomas Fuller
