When the flower blossoms, the bee will come.

It is essential that justice be done, it is equally vital that justice not be confused with revenge, for the two are wholly different.

George Bernard Shaw

I mean, I think we're put here on earth to make your own destiny, to begin with. I don't think there's anything you can do this way or that way to change anything.

Waylon Jennings

Because you're beautiful. I enjoy looking at beautiful people, and I decided a while ago not to deny myself the simpler pleasures of existence.

John Green

Writing, at its best, is a lonely life. Organizations for writers palliate the writer's loneliness, but I doubt if they improve his writing. He grows in public stature as he sheds his loneliness and often his work deteriorates. For he does his work alone and if he is a good enough writer he must face eternity, or the lack of it, each day.

Ernest Hemingway

Skills are cheap; chemistry is expensive.

Mal Pancoast

They don't directly listen to you.They just hear things within their minds that triggered by your words.

Toba Beta

We're born alone. We do need each other. It's lonely to really effectively live your life, and anyone you can get help from or give help to; that's part of your obligation.

Bill Murray

History doesn't crawl; it leaps.

Nassim Taleb

The most important lesson of New Labour is this: Every time we made progress we did it by challenging the conventional wisdom.
