Feeding the hungry is a greater work than raising the dead.

Deprived of their newspapers or a novel, reading-addicts will fall back onto cookery books, on the literature which is wrapped around bottles of patent medicine, on those instructions for keeping the contents crisp which are printed on the outside of boxes of breakfast cereals. On anything.

Aldous Huxley

When he who hears does not know what he who speaks means, and when he who speaks does not know what he himself means, that is philosophy

Voltaire

I'm possibly a very morbid person but I think about death a lot.

Daniel Radcliffe

This will be our reply to violence: to make music more intensely, more beautifully, more devotedly than ever before.

Leonard Bernstein

We are never more discontented with others than when we are discontented with ourselves.

Henri Frederic Amiel

The pop musicians often leave meaning in the dust and substitute it for cartoons. The deeper artists - the grunge artists in the world and the emoticon people - tend to leave all of the happiness out of life like it just doesn't exist.

Hal Sparks

When we get to wishing a great deal for ourselves, whatever we get soon turns into mere limitation and exclusion.

George Eliot

The Sunday School teacher talked too much in the way our grade school teacher used to when she told us about George Washington. Pleasant, pretty stories, but not true.

Frances Farmer

Novak Djokovic

You cannot have the right to do what is wrong!

Abraham Lincoln

This love is silent.

T. S. Eliot

This world is not a platform where you will hear Thalberg-piano-playing. It is a piano manufactory, where are dust and shavings and boards, and saws and files and rasps and sandpapers. The perfect instrument and the music will be hereafter.

Henry Ward Beecher
