We don't focus as much in schools on educational knowledge which requires thinking and application, as we do on acquiring facts.

Psychoanalysis is confession without absolution.

G. K. Chesterton

I am going to show you great and mighty things which no one has ever seen before.... I am going to take you places where no one has ever been. I am going to take you to heights where no one has ever reached. If you will only come to me with all your heart, I will do a mighty work in you, which no man can undo but yourself.

M.J. Chrisman

A little incompatibility is the spice of life, as long as he has income and she is pattable.

Ogden Nash

A man can go from being a lover to being a stranger in three moves flat but a woman under the guise of friendship will engage in acts of duplicity which come to light very much later. There are different species of self-justification.

Anita Brookner

Beauty is not just a white girl. It's so many different flavors and shades.

Queen Latifah

Oftentimes we call Life bitter names, but only when we ourselves are bitter and dark. And we deem her empty and unprofitable, but only when the soul goes wandering in desolate places, and the heart is drunken with overmindfulness of self.Life is deep and high and distant; and though only your vast vision can reach even her feet, yet she is near; and though only the breath of your breath reaches her heart, the shadow of your shadow crosses her face, and the echo of your faintest cry becomes a spring and an autumn in her breast.And life is veiled and hidden, even as your greater self is hidden and veiled. Yet when Life speaks, all the winds become words; and when she speaks again, the smiles upon your lips and the tears in your eyes turn also into words. When she sings, the deaf hear and are held; and when she comes walking, the sightless behold her and are amazed and follow her in wonder and astonishment.

Kahlil Gibran

I am going to get political on you. Because I am the most shallow person in the world, my mission is to see men's formal wear change a little bit. It is too rigid! Everybody looks like a penguin!

Steven Cojocaru

No one was more important than my mom and dad. I know they are watching from a place up in heaven here today to make sure all their kids are doing good.

Eddie Murray

People are always telling me that i'm not like other girls...that i dont dress like other girls...that i dont act like other girls. But i'm my OWN person...i go to the beat of my own drum.

Miley Cyrus

It's a pretty good idea to be of good cheer but not all the time. Just at the most unexpected times.

Source Unknown

You will never get to the irreducible definition of anything because you will never be able to explain why you want to explain, and so on. The system will gobble itself up.

Alan Wilson Watts

I cannot love as I have loved, And yet I know not why; It is the one great woe of life To feel all feeling die.

Edward Bulwer-Lytton
