It is essential that justice be done, it is equally vital that justice not be confused with revenge, for the two are wholly different.

What is life without the radiance of love?

Friedrich Schiller

When a friend, then, indulges in the joy of unburdening a secret on to another friend's bosom, he makes the latter, in his turn, feel the urge to taste the same joy himself. He implores him, it is true, not to tell a soul; but if such a condition were taken absolutely literally, it would at once cut off the flow of these joys at their very source. The general practice is for the secret to be confided only to an equally trustworthy friend, the same conditions being imposed on him. And so from trustworthy friend to trustworthy friend the secret goes moving on round that immense chain, until finally it reaches the ears of just the very person or persons whom the first talker had expressly intended it never should reach.

Alessandro Manzoni

Any fool can criticize, condemn, and complain -- and most fools do.

Dale Carnegie

How people treat other people is a direct reflection of how they feel about themselves.

Paulo Coelho

For the first time in his life, Mont Blanc for a moment looked to him what it was - a chaos of anarchic and purposeless forces - and he needed days of repose to see it clothe itself again with the illusions of his senses, the white purity of its snows, the splendor of its light, and the infinity of its heavenly peace. Nature was kind; Lake Geneva was beautiful beyond itself, and the Alps put on charms real as terrors.

Henry Adams

I asked him Who said you could fool around with my wife he said everybody.

Rodney Dangerfield

God never gives us discernment in order that we may criticize, but that we may intercede.

Oswald Chambers

Superstition is an unreasoning fear of God.

Marcus Tullius Cicero

All my life, all my life that I can, as far back as I can remember, I saw my first movie when I was six years old. And since then I wanted to do that. I wanted to be a part of that.

Morgan Freeman

The state exists for man, not man for the state. The same may be said of science. These are old phrases, coined by people who saw in human individuality the highest human value. I would hesitate to repeat them, were it not for the ever recurring danger that they may be forgotten, especially in these days of organization and stereotypes.

Albert Einstein

Everybody has a weakness. Mine is food.

Salma Hayek

The finest language is mostly made up of simple unimposing words.

George Eliot
