You forget that you do choose your life and there are so many things to be grateful for and I feel like society has gotten to that point where we're always looking for the next and the better and we lose sight of what's actually in front of us.

There is in every American, I think, something of the old Daniel Boone -- who, when he could see the smoke from another chimney, felt himself too crowded and moved further out into the wilderness.

Hubert Humphrey

He who avoids complaint invites happiness.

Abu Bakr

Imagination is not the talent of some men, but is the health of every man

Ralph Waldo Emerson

A poem is true if it hangs together. Information points to something else. A poem points to nothing but itself.

E. M. Forster

If I was invincible, maybe I would take up some extreme sports.

Tom Welling

There is nothing wrong with America that cannot be cured with what is right in America.

William J. Clinton

Human beings must be known to be loved; but Divine beings must be loved to be known.

Blaise Pascal

Now, the vicissitudes that afflict the individual have their source in society. It is this situation that has given currency to the phrase social forces. Personal relations have given way to impersonal ones. The Great Society has arrived and the task of our generation is to bring it under control. The study of how it is to be done is the function of politics.

Aneurin Bevan

The mountains, rivers, earth, grasses, trees, and forests are always emanating a subtle, precious light, day and night, always emanating a subtle, precious sound, demonstrating and expounding to all people the unsurpassed ultimate truth.

Elaine N. Aron

I always find it kind of embarrassing, kind of funny, and kind of exciting. In New York I'm recognized a lot, although nobody says anything. You know, they stare at you just a second too long. But in Paris it's not as commonplace to be recognized.

Marc Jacobs

To hate man and love god seems to be the sum of all creeds.

Robert G. Ingersoll
