...but don't tell me I'm not sensitive to beauty. That's my Achilles' heel, and don't you forget it. To me, everything is beautiful. Show me a pink sunset and I'm limp, by God...

All my life I've looked at words as though I were seeing them for the first time.

Ernest Hemingway

No just person ever became quickly rich.

Menander

Those who educate children well are more to be honored than they who produce them for these only gave them life, those the art of living well.

Aristotle

An experiment is a question which science poses to Nature and a measurement is the recording of Nature's answer.

Max Planck

Despotism may govern without faith, but liberty cannot. How is it possible that society should escape destruction if the moral tie is not strengthened in proportion as the political tie is relaxed? And what can be done with a people who are their own masters if they are not submissive to the Deity?

Alexis de Tocqueville

Man is about to be an automaton; he is identifiable only in the computer. As a person of worth and creativity, as a being with an infinite potential, he retreats and battles the forces that make him inhuman. The dissent we witness is a reaffirmation of faith in man; it is protest against living under rules and prejudices and attitudes that produce the extremes of wealth and poverty and that make us dedicated to the destruction of people through arms, bombs, and gases, and that prepare us to think alike and be submissive objects for the regime of the computer.

William O. Douglas

Any role that big is going to be a challenge for any actor, but for an actor of a young age, it's going to be even tougher.

Jeff Bridges

Through hard work, perseverance and a faith in God, you can live your dreams.

Benjamin Carson

I define friendship as a bond that transcends all barriers. When you are ready to expect anything and everything from friends, good, bad or ugly... that's what I call true friendship.

Harbhajan Singh

We had no revolutions to fear, nor fatigues to undergo; all our adventures were by the fireside, and all our migrations from the blue bed to the brown.

Oliver Goldsmith

I was very aware of office politics because I was so baffled by them. So much so goes unsaid. No one says 'you're a cheeky so-and-so,' no one says 'you're so moody,' nobody ever confronts anyone else about anything. But I'm very crass, and I'm very confrontational, and I have a temper. I had to be hyper-vigilant in every office I worked in.

Denise Mina

Do your work, then step back. The only path to serenity.

Lao Tzu
