I don't smoke, don't drink much, and go to the gym five times a week. I live a healthy lifestyle and feel great. I can run a marathon, you know.

But men labor under a mistake. The better part of the man is soon plowed into the soil for compost. By a seeming fate, commonly called necessity, they are employed, as it says in an old book, laying up treasures which moth and rust will corrupt and thieves break through and steal. It is a fool's life, as they will find when they get to the end of it, if not before.

Henry David Thoreau

So they've actually - it's not that her character is a singer, but she had ambition to do that at an earlier time in her life. So I've actually sung two or three times now on the show.

Katey Sagal

There is not one wise man in twenty that will praise himself.

William Shakespeare

Politics is a highly tribal business.

Nick Clegg

The last thing I ever wanted was to be alive when the three most powerful people on the whole planet would be named Bush, Dick and Colon.

Kurt Vonnegut

With a sigh, he grabbed hold of his chair and lifted himself out of it, then wrote on the blackboard: How will we ever get out of this labyrinth of suffering? - A.Y.'I'm going to leave that up for the rest of the semester,' he said.'Because everybody who has ever lost their way in life has felt the nagging insistence of that question. At some point we all look up and realize we are lost in a maze, and I don't want us to forget Alaska, and I don't want to forget that even when the material we study seems boring, we're trying to understand how people have answered that question and the questions each of you posed in your papers--how different traditions have come to terms with what Chip, in his final, called 'people's rotten lots in life.

John Green

I am just absolutely convinced that the best formula for giving us peace and preserving the American way of life is freedom, limited government, and minding our own business overseas.

Ron Paul

It devastates me now that I have been reduced to a Hollywood statistic - another joke marriage.

Sophia Bush

The secular world looks to the church and to its chagrin, finds no love, no life, no laughter, no hope and no happiness.

Rod Parsley

Take only memories, leave nothing but footprints.

Chief Seattle

There is no cosmetic for beauty like happiness.

Marguerite Blessington

As I live and am a man, this is an unexaggerated tale - my dreams become the substances of my life.

Samuel Taylor Coleridge
