What doth it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses his own soul?

I don't listen to a lot of new stuff. I just like the old stuff. It's all quite dramatic and atmospheric. You'd have an entire story in song. I never listen to, like, white music - I couldn't sing you a Zeppelin or Floyd song.

Amy Winehouse

Ah! There is nothing like staying at home, for real comfort.

Jane Austen

We too often bind ourselves by authorities rather than by the truth.

Lucretia Mott

Miracles come in moments. Be ready and willing.

Wayne Dyer

You can't expect the entire world to come to New York to see you. You have to travel to them.

Theodore Bikel

A spirit is, like, your mother, my dad, who've made it. They can come around, but they come around in a loving way because they've already made it to God. Most people make it.

Sylvia Browne

Contrary to what we usually believe . . . the best moments in our lives, are not the passive, receptive, relaxing times--although such experiences can also be enjoyable, if we have worked hard to attain them.The best moments usually occur when a person's body or mind is stretched to its limits in a voluntary effort to accomplish something difficult and worthwhile.

Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, Flow: T

A life devoted to seeking pleasure, is a life committed to being discontent.

David Guerrero

I want American Dream growth - lots of new businesses, well-paying jobs, and American leadership in new industries, like clean energy and biotechnology.

William J. Clinton

Wherever smart people work, doors are unlocked.

Steve Wozniak

Either you think -- or else others have to think for you and take power from you, pervert and discipline your natural tastes, civilize and sterilize you.

F. Scott Fitzgerald

The trouble with us in America isn't that the poetry of life has turned to prose, but that it has turned to advertising copy.
