Don't waste time trying to break a man's heart; be satisfied if you can just manage to chip it in a brand new place.

The afflicted are not listened to. They are like someone whose tongue has been cut out and who occasionally forgets the fact. When they move their lips no ear perceives any sound. And they themselves soon sink into impotence in the use of language, because of the certainty of not being heard.

Simone Weil

Tell the truth now Your heart is a strange little orange to peel What's the deal?

St. Vincent

Suffering passes, while love is eternal. That's a gift that you have received from God. Don't waste it.

Laura Ingalls Wilder

I like fantasy. I like horror, science fiction because I can get avant-garde with those performances in those movies.

Nicolas Cage

Any individual can be, in time, what he earnestly desires to be, if he but set his face steadfastly in the direction of that one thing and bring all his powers to bear upon its attainment.

J. Herman Randall

Be free, and live life fully.

Caroline Shaw

Money begets money.

Italian Proverb

Poetry is the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings: it takes its origin from emotion recollected in tranquillity: the emotion is contemplated till, by a species of reaction, the tranquillity gradually disappears, and an emotion, kindred to that which was the subject of contemplation, is gradually produced, and does itself actually exist in the mind.

William Wordsworth, from Preface

Life begins when you get out of the grandstand into the game.

P. L. Debevoise

There is no age, height, or weight requirement to skate. It is good exercise no matter what your age is. If you want to be competitive, most start young. But, I practice with many adult competitors.

Nancy Kerrigan

Consensus is what many people say in chorus but do not believe as individuals.

Abba Eban

The Southern slave would obey God in respect to marriage, and also to the reading and studying of His word. But this, as we have seen, is forbidden him.

Gerrit Smith
