Everybody kind of perceives me as being angry. It's not anger, it's motivation.

Praise is declaration, a victory cry, proclaiming faith to stand firm in the place God has given you. Praise is a proclamation that the enemy's intent to plunder you will not rock you. Praise declares that you will not be moved by the enemy's attempt to snatch you away.

Darlene Zschech

That truth should be silent I had almost forgot. (Enobarbus)

William Shakespeare

I fear God never showed mercy to one so vile as I.

David Brainerd

The supreme accomplishment is to blur the line between work and play.

Arnold J. Toynbee

Golf is typical capitalist lunacy.

George Bernard Shaw

Manners are the happy ways of doing things; each one a stroke of genius or of love, now repeated and hardened into usage, they form at last a rich varnish, with which the routine of life is washed, and its details adorned. If they are superficial, so are the dew-drops which give such a depth to the morning meadows.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, The Conduct

Desire to know why, and how -- curiosity, which is a lust of the mind, that a perseverance of delight in the continued and indefatigable generation of knowledge -- exceedeth the short vehemence of any carnal pleasure.

Thomas Hobbes

Who is the happiest of men? He who values the merits of others, And in their pleasure takes joy, even as though 'twere his own. Not in the morning alone, not only at mid-day he charmeth; Even at setting, the sun is still the same glorious planet.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Clothes do not merely make the man…clothes are the man.

Mark Twain

From nobody to upstart. From upstart to contender. From contender to winner. From winner to champion. From champion to Dynasty.

Pat Riley

If you never want to be criticized, for goodness' sake don't do anything new.

Jeff Bezos

In reality, there is, perhaps, no one of our natural passions so hard to subdue as pride. Disguise it, struggle with it, beat it down, stifle it, mortify it as much as one pleases, it is still alive, and will every now and then peep out and show itself; you will see it, perhaps, often in this history; for, even if I could conceive that I had compleatly overcome it, I should probably be proud of my humility.

Benjamin Franklin
