Paulo Coelho

Let's hope you feel better now.

Abraham Maslow

Illusion is the first of the pleasures

Voltaire

The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself.

Friedrich Nietzsche

Coco J. Ginger

If this nation is to be wise as well as strong, if we are to achieve our destiny, then we need more new ideas for more wise men reading more good books in more public libraries. These libraries should be open to allexcept the censor. We must know all the facts and hear all the alternatives and listen to all the criticisms. Let us welcome controversial books and controversial authors. For the Bill of Rights is the guardian of our security as well as our liberty.

John Fitzgerald Kennedy

What are people going to do? Fire me? I've been fired before. Not book me? I've been out of work before. I don't care.

Jeri Smith-Ready

Cardinal Newman

Football (soccer) is a matter of life and death, except more important.

Bill Shankly
