The failure of the United Nations - My failure is maybe, in retrospective, that I was not enough aggressive with the members of the Security Council.

What I knew, adored, and fell for was a fantasy. He did not exist in human terms.

Coco J. Ginger

The oblivion fear is something else, fear that I won't be able to give anything in exchange for my life. If you don't live a life in service of a greater good, you've gotta at least die a death in service of a greater good, you know? And I fear that I won't get either a life or a death that means anything.

John Green

All the arguments which are brought to represent poverty as no evil show it evidently to be a great evil.

Samuel Johnson

What we become depends on what we read after all of the professors have finished with us. The greatest university of all is a collection of books.

Thomas Carlyle

I must talk, and you must listen, for we are engaged here in the most important pursuit in history: the search for meaning. What is the nature of being a person? What is the best way to go about being a person? How did we come to be, and what will become of us when we are no longer? In short: What are the rules of this game, and how might we best play it?

John Green

Limit to courage? There is no limit to courage.

Gabriele D'Annunzio

One must have a heart of stone to read the death of little Nell without laughing.

Oscar Wilde

Because I trust in the ever-changing climate of the heart. (At least, today I feel that way.) I think it is necessary to have many experiences for the sake of feeling something; for the sake of being challenged, and for the sake of being expressive, to offer something to someone else, to learn what we are capable of.

Jason Mraz

You don't want to live your life and then meet someone. You want to share your life with someone. That's what I'm missing right now.

Rihanna

Reality is what we take to be true. What we take to be true is what we believe. What we believe is based upon our perceptions. What we perceive depends upon what we look for. What we look for depends upon what we think. What we think depends upon what we perceive. What we perceive determines what we believe. What we believe determines what we take to be true. what we take to be true is our reality.

Gary Zukav

For anything worth having one must pay the price; and the price is always work, patience, love, self-sacrifice -- no paper currency, no promises to pay, but the gold of real service.

John Burroughs

No one respects a talent that is concealed.

Desiderius Erasmus
