Who ever mocks the poor insults his maker; and he that is glad at calamities shall not go unpunished.

I have been, and will go on, fighting that damnable, dirty, rotten business with all the power at my command.

Billy Sunday

No man knows less than the man who knows it all

It's more important for me to feel content than to be famous.

Samantha Morton

Reformation, like education, is a journey, not a destination.

Mary Harris Jones

There are people who can write their memoirs with a reasonable amount of honesty, and there are people who simply cannot take themselves seriously enough. I think I might be the first to admit that the sort of reticence which prevents a man from exploiting his own personality is really an inverted sort of egotism.

Raymond Chandler

The streets looked small, of course. The streets that we have only seen as children always do I believe when we go back to them

Charles Dickens

If you are joyful, do not worry about lukewarmness. Joy will shine in your eyes and in your look, in your conversation and in your countenance. You will not be able to hide it because joy overflows.

Mother Teresa

Champagne is the only wine a woman can drink and still remain beautiful.

de Pompadour, Madame

A toddling little girl is a center of common feeling which makes the most dissimilar people understand each other.

George Eliot

Our intellect is not the most subtle, the most powerful, the most appropriate, instrument for revealing the truth. It is life that, little by little, example by example, permits us to see that what is most important to our heart, or to our mind, is learned not by reasoning but through other agencies. Then it is that the intellect, observing their superiority, abdicates its control to them upon reasoned grounds and agrees to become their collaborator and lackey.

Marcel Proust

Grief helps you come to grips with the loss of a loved one. Guilt helps you make better moral decisions or bring you to apologise for a wrongdoing. In proper doses, these types of negative emotions are necessary and healthy.

Stephen Richards

The unity of freedom has never relied on uniformity of opinion.

John Fitzgerald Kennedy
