Fashion exists for women with no taste, etiquette for people with no breeding.

I played a ton of team sports growing up, and team wins are just incredibly gratifying.

Andrew Matthews

A Republican by principle and devotion, I will, until my death, oppose all Royalists and all enemies of my Government and the Republic.

Jean Baptiste Bernadotte

Tim Burton

Johnson

Oscar Wilde

You've got to ask! Asking is, in my opinion, the world's most powerful -- and neglected -- secret to success and happiness.

Percy Ross

Monarchies, aristocracies, and religions are all based upon that large defect in your race -- the individual's distrust of his neighbor, and his desire, for safety's or comfort's sake, to stand well in his neighbor's eye. These institutions will always remain, and always flourish, and always oppress you, affront you, and degrade you, because you will always be and remain slaves of minorities. There was never a country where the majority of the people were in their secret hearts loyal to any of these institutions.

Mark Twain

Evangelista Torricelli

If every life is a river, then it's little wonder that we do not even notice the changes that occur until we are far out in the darkest sea. One day you look around and nothing is familiar, not even your own face. My name once meant daughter, grandaughter, friend, sister, beloved. Now those words mean only what their letters spell out; Star in the night sky. Truth in the darkness.I have crossed over to a place where I never thought I'd be. I am someone I would have never imagined. A secret. A dream. I am this, body and soul. Burn me. Drown me. Tell me lies. I will still be who I am.

Alice Hoffman
