The English have no respect for their language, and will not teach their children to speak it.

Scared and sacred are spelled with the same letters. Awful proceeds from the same root word as awesome. Terrify and terrific. Every negative experience holds the seed of transformation.

Alan Cohen

The supreme happiness in life is the conviction that we are loved -- loved for ourselves, or rather, loved in spite of ourselves.

Victor Hugo

Give me wine to wash me clean of the weather-stains of cares

Ralph Waldo Emerson

It is the theory that decides what we can observe.

Albert Einstein

To do a great right do a little wrong.

William Shakespeare

I consider my mom and all my sisters my friends.

Alexa Vega

Riches: A dream in the night. Fame: A gull floating on water.

Chinese Proverb

I have often been asked, Do not people bore you? I do not understand quite what that means. I suppose the calls of the stupid and curious, especially of newspaper reporters, are always inopportune. I also dislike people who try to talk down to my understanding. They are like people who when walking with you try to shorten their steps to suit yours; the hypocrisy in both cases is equally exasperating.

Helen Keller

I mean, is there a chance for me? To have another life after this, a better one?

Cassandra Clare

The will is never free -- it is always attached to an object, a purpose. It is simply the engine in the car -- it can't steer.

Joyce Cary

The longer one lives, the more one realizes that nothing is a dish for every day.

Norman Douglas, The Oracle

Gravitation is not responsible for people falling in love.

Albert Einstein
