Everything is simpler than you think and yet more complex than you imagine.

When you start to develop your powers of empathy and imagination, the whole world opens up to you.

Susan Sarandon

My method is to take the utmost trouble to find the right thing to say, and then to say it with the utmost levity.

George Bernard Shaw

Ben Elton

To love another person is to see the face of God.

Victor Hugo

Beauty is the pilot of the young soul.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Technology has a shadow side. It accounts for real progress in medicine, but has also hurt it in many ways, making it more impersonal, expensive and dangerous. The false belief that a safety net of sophisticated drugs and machines stretches below us, permitting risky or lazy lifestyle choices, has undermined our spirit of self-reliance.

Andrew Weil

Roosevelt was the one who had the vision to change our policy from isolationism to world leadership. That was a terrific revolution. Our country's never been the same since.

Let us do our duty, in our shop in our kitchen, in the market, the street, the office, the school, the home, just as faithfully as if we stood in the front rank of some great battle, and knew that victory for mankind depends on our bravery, strength, and skill. When we do that, the humblest of us will be serving in that great army which achieves the welfare of the world.

Theodore Parker

Music for me, it demands full concentration.

Paulo Coelho

Aim higher in case you fall short.

Suzanne Collins
