It is a fine thing to be honest, but it is also very important to be right.

I adore this adventure, I adore working with youth. For me it's a daily challenge, working to help these youths realize their dreams.

Patrick Roy

Victory and defeat are a part of life, which are to be viewed with equanimity.

Atal Bihari Vajpayee

He who seeks for gain, must be at some expense.

Plautus

The secret is to always let the other man have your way.

Claiborne Pell

Much of your pain is the bitter potion by which the physician within you heals your sick self.

Kahlil Gibran

I'm ultimately a widow and a single mother, who's not even getting to be a mother right now. I am so alone, it's freaky.

Courtney Love

When you come to look into this argument from design, it is a most astonishing thing that people can believe that this world, with all the things that are in it, with all its defects, should be the best that omnipotence and omniscience have been able to produce in millions of years. I really cannot believe it. Do you think that, if you were granted omnipotence and omniscience and millions of years in which to perfect your world, you could produce nothing better than the Ku Klux Klan or the Fascists? Moreover, if you accept the ordinary laws of science, you have to suppose that human life and life in general on this planet will die out in due course: it is a stage in the decay of the solar system; at a certain stage of decay you get the sort of conditions of temperature and so forth which are suitable to protoplasm, and there is life for a short time in the life of the whole solar system. You see in the moon the sort of thing to which the earth is tending -- something dead, cold, and lifeless.

Bertrand Russell

There is always some specific moment when we become aware that our youth is gone but, years after, we know it was much later.

Mignon McLaughlin

Men marry to make an end; women to make a beginning.

Alexis Dupuy

Life is a grindstone, and whether it grinds a man down or polishes him up depends on the stuff he's made of

Josh Billings

I don't think that anyone seriously fears that the world can be blown to pieces all together. But what one can fear and rightly so are regional things, like in the Middle East, India, Pakistan, the Korean Peninsula, borders in Africa, etc.

Hans Blix

Girls who put out are tramps. Girls who don't are ladies. This is, however, a rather archaic usage of the word. Should one of you boys happen upon a girl who doesn't put out, do not jump to the conclusion that you have found a lady. What you have probably found is a lesbian.
