It's so easy to grow apart marriage takes work.

Just imagine how different the world could be if we all spoke to everyone with respect and kindness.

In Psalm 72, Solomon prays for power and fame but he says the purpose of influence is to speak up for others and one is the immigrant. He doesn't delineate between legal and illegal.

Rick Warren

The great God endows His children variously. To some he gives intellect -- and they move the earth. To some he allots heart -- and the beating pulse of humanity is theirs. But to some He gives only a soul, without intelligence -- and these, who never grow up, but remain always His children, are God's fools, kindly, elemental, simple, as if from His palette the Artist of all had taken one color instead of many.

Mary Roberts Rinehart

OUR history begins before we are born. We represent the hereditary influences of our race, and our ancestors virtually live in us.

James Nasmyth

Watching a peaceful death of a human being reminds us of a falling star one of a million lights in a vast sky that flares up for a brief moment only to disappear into the endless night forever.

Elisabeth Kubler-Ross

One does not accumulate but eliminate . It is not daily increase but daily decrease. The height of cultivation always runs to simplicity.

Bruce Lee

And wilt thou have me fashion into speechThe love I bear thee, finding words enough,And hold the torch out, while the winds are rough,Between our faces, to cast light on each? -I dropt it at thy feet. I cannot teachMy hand to hold my spirits so far offFrom myself--me--that I should bring thee proofIn words, of love hid in me out of reach.Nay, let the silence of my womanhoodCommend my woman-love to thy belief, -Seeing that I stand unwon, however wooed,And rend the garment of my life, in brief,By a most dauntless, voiceless fortitude,Lest one touch of this heart convey its grief.

Elizabeth Barrett Browning

The idea of redemption is always good news, even if it means sacrifice or some difficult times.

Patti Smith

You should never assume contempt for that which it is not very manifest that you have it in your power to possess, nor does a wit ever make a more contemptible figure than when, in attempting satire, he shows that he does not understand that which he would make the subject of his ridicule.

Lord Melbourne

I'm not saying that everyone should swim with sharks, but sometimes you have to jump over your own shadow in order to learn something that you will never forget for the rest of your life. Then you know you can conquer your fears.

Heidi Klum

You can lead a whore to culture but you can't make her think.

Dorothy Parker

You were sick, but now you're well again, and there's work to do.
