Faith and love are apt to be spasmodic in the best minds. Men live the brink of mysteries and harmonies into which they never enter, and with their hands on the door-latch they die outside.

Conviction is worthless unless it is converted into conduct.

Thomas Carlyle

He was in that mostly empty-headed state of grace which is sometimes such fertile soil ; it's the ground from which our brightest dreams and biggest ideas (both good and spectacularly bad) suddenly burst forth, often full-blown.

Stephen King

He didn't mind how he looked to other people, because the nursery magic had made him Real, and when you are Real shabbiness doesn't matter.

Margery Williams

The man who views the world at 50 the same as he did at 20 has wasted 30 years of his life.

Muhammad Ali

It is no longer a question of a Christian going about to convert others to the faith, but of each one being ready to listen to the other and so to grow together in mutual understanding.

Bede Griffiths

To accomplish great things, we must not only act, but also dream; not only plan, but also believe.

Anatole France

Money is a handmaiden, if thou knowest how to use it a mistress, if thou knowest not.

Horace

My dad always told me that the best way to get somebody to get at you is to talk bad about them to somebody else.

T-Pain

We are never happy; we can only remember that we were so once.

Alexander Smith

Wisdom doesn't necessarily come with age. Sometimes age just shows up all by itself.

Tom Wilson

Nobody ever lives their life all the way up except bullfighters.

Ernest Hemingway

Being vegan is easy. Are there social pressures that encourage you to continue to eat, wear, and use animal products? Of course there are. But in a patriarchal, racist, homophobic, and ableist society, there are social pressures to participate and engage in sexism, racism, homophobia, and ableism. At some point, you have to decide who you are and what matters morally to you. And once you decide that you regard victimizing vulnerable nonhumans is not morally acceptable, it is easy to go and stay vegan
