I get along with all the women singers, but especially Dolly Parton. We talk the same hillbilly language.

The only part of the conduct of any one, for which he is amenable to society, is that which concerns others. In the part which merely concerns himself, his independence is, of right, absolute. Over himself, over his own body and mind, the individual is sovereign.

John Stuart Mill

Beauty is a precious trace that eternity causes to appear to us and that it takes away from us. A manifestation of eternity, and a sign of death as well.

Eugene Ionesco

I look upon those pitiful concretions of lime and clay which spring up, in mildewed forwardness, out of the kneaded fields about our capital... not merely with the careless disgust of an offended eye, not merely with sorrow for a desecrated landscape, but with a painful foreboding that the roots of our national greatness must be deeply cankered when they are thus loosely struck in their native ground. The crowded tenements of a struggling and restless population differ only from the tents of the Arab or the Gipsy by their less healthy openness to the air of heaven, and less happy choice of their spot of earth; by their sacrifice of liberty without the gain of rest, and of stability without the luxury of change.

John Ruskin

Spel chekers, hoo neeeds em?

Alan James Bean

If you want to live a happy life, tie it to a goal. Not to people or things.

Albert Einstein

Their fingers seemed to fit together in just the right way- effortlessly clasped,like perfect complements.

Nicholas Sparks

All oppression creates a state of war.

Simone de Beauvoir

I am convinced we do not only love ourselves in others but hate ourselves in others too.

G. C. (Georg Christoph) Lichtenb

And so to those who suggest that we are somehow 'harming' young women by encouraging them to take charge of their health we say this: We are not harming young women by educating them. We are arming them with information that they will carry with them throughout their lives.

Debbie Wasserman Schultz

Human dignity is better served by embracing knowledge.

John Charles Polanyi

There are two types of men who never amount to anything. One is the fellow who never does anything except that which he is told to do. The other is the fellow who cannot do even that which he is told to do.

Andrew Carnegie

Cheerleading gave me a love of sports, which I brought to the Senate. I can talk to the good ol' boys about college sports because I follow it like they do.
