What is forgiven is usually well remembered.

I never said I wanted a 'happy' life but an interesting one. From separation and loss, I have learned a lot. I have become strong and resilient, as is the case of almost every human being exposed to life and to the world. We don't even know how strong we are until we are forced to bring that hidden strength forward.

Isabel Allende

The bungalow had more to do with how Americans live today than any other building that has gone remotely by the name of architecture in our history.

Russell Lynes

In view of China's growing military strength and intentions, the best way to safeguard Asia's permanent peace and prosperity is to have all Asian countries join forces with other democratic countries in the world to form a global community of democracies.

Jim Costa

Damn it, how will I ever get out of this labyrinth?

Simón Bolívar

The mark of the man of the world is absence of pretension. He does not make a speech; he takes a low business-tone, avoids all brag, is nobody, dresses plainly, promises not at all, performs much, speaks in monosyllables, hugs his fact. He calls his employment by its lowest name, and so takes from evil tongues their sharpest weapon. His conversation clings to the weather and the news, yet he allows himself to be surprised into thought, and the unlocking of his learning and philosophy.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

My nickname for my mom was 'The Compass.'

Dane Cook

Personally, I was never the cool kid. I was always sort of a bookworm. I would just like to be more like Troy, because he's so cool.

Zac Efron

There's just so many great stories in the past that you can know a little bit about, but you can't know it all, and that's where imagination can work.

Geraldine Brooks

Anything you really want, you can attain, if you really go after it.

Wayne Dyer

A competent and self-confident person is incapable of jealousy in anything. Jealousy is invariably a symptom of neurotic insecurity.

Robert A. Heinlein

Cunning is the art of concealing our own defects, and discovering the weaknesses of others.

William Hazlitt

All my concerts had no sounds in them they were completely silent. People had to make up their own music in their minds!

Yoko Ono
