I think it's time to have a celebration of life and renew our vows. And this time we're going to write the vows because they're going to mean a lot more. We certainly put the 'in sickness and in health' vow to the test the last year and half.

Where do you draw the line between a humble man who knows his own weaknesses but tries to act out virtues he hasn't quite mastered yet, and a proud man who pretends to have those virtues without the slightest intention of acquiring them?

Orson Scott Card

I like living, breathing better than working...my art is that of living. Each second, each breath is a work which is inscribed nowhere, which is neither visual nor cerebral, it's a sort of constant euphoria.

Marcel Duchamp

The world is the house of the strong. I shall not know until the end what I have lost or won in this place, in this vast gambling den where I have spent more than sixty years, dicebox in hand, shaking the dice.

Denis Diderot

There is a criterion by which you can judge whether the thoughts you are thinking and the things you are doing are right for you. The criterion is: Have they brought you inner peace?

Peace Pilgrim

Shall I ask you how the church is to be filled, if a man is neither to take orders with a living, nor without?

Jane Austen

Thin people are beautiful, but fat people are adorable.

Jackie Gleason

The painful warrior famous for fight, After a thousand victories, once foil'd, Is from the books of honor razed quite, And all the rest forgot for which he toil'd

William Shakespeare

Behind every successful man is a proud wife and a surprised mother-in-law.

Hubert Humphrey

If you learn from defeat, you haven't really lost.

Zig Ziglar

He who goes unenvied shall not be admired.

Aeschylus

Don't confront me with my failures. I have not forgotten them.

Jackson Browne
