Failure gives the bald hairs; equips the novice with experience. The learner, sooner or later, becomes a teacher by it.

He who controls the present, controls the past. He who controls the past, controls the future.

George Orwell

People talk about the conscience, but it seems to me one must just bring it up to a certain point and leave it there. You can let your conscience alone if you're nice to the second housemaid.

Henry James

I'm just very amused by five-year-old humor.

Kesha

The biggest disease this day and age is that of people feeling unloved.

Princess Diana

My life's work has been accomplished. I did all that I could.

Mikhail Gorbachev

Be still when you have nothing to say; when genuine passion moves you, say what you've got to say, and say it hot.

D. H. (David Herbert) Lawrence

One may disavow and disclaim vices that surprise us, and whereto our passions transport us; but those which by long habits are rooted in a strong and powerful will are not subject to contradiction. Repentance is but a denying of our will, and an opposition of our fantasies.

Michel de Montaigne

We sow our thoughts and reap our actions. We sow our actions and reap our habits. We sow our habits and reap our character. We sow our character, and we reap our destiny.

I have never experienced being madly in love the way most people seem to have been, although it is not something I would miss. Instead I have had an enormous ability to love my children and my grandchildren and my great grandchildren.

Astrid Lindgren

When I said a few weeks ago that our people would eat cooking oil and olives if necessary, I didn't mean that there really would be only oil and olives. What I meant was that our people have the necessary patience to endure the current difficult situation. Palestinians would rather do without certain food items than their national rights.

Ismail Haniyeh

Setting a goal is not the main thing. It is deciding how you will go about achieving it and staying with that plan.

Tom Landry

Set religion free, and a new humanity will begin.

Karl Wilhelm Friedrich Schlegel
