Get busy living or get busy dying.

I've never know any trouble than an hour's reading didn't assuage.

Charles de Secondat

It is a full time job being honest one moment at a time, remembering to love, to honor, to respect. It is a practice, a discipline, worthy of every moment.

Jasmine Guy

To be worthy of the name, he must be free of two things; the force of tradition and tyranny of his own passions.

Bertrand Russell

The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation. What is called resignation is confirmed desperation. From the desperate city you go into the desperate country, and have to console yourself with the bravery of minks and muskrats. A stereotyped but unconscious despair is concealed even under what are called the games and amusements of mankind. There is no play in them, for this comes after work. But it is a characteristic of wisdom not to do desperate things.

Henry David Thoreau, Walden, cha

Life consists in what a person is thinking of all day.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Actors always talk about taking their work home and I always think: 'What are you on? You just turn it off. You are at work and then you go home.'

Bill Nighy

The opinion prevailed among advanced minds that it was time that belief should be replaced increasingly by knowledge; belief that did not itself rest on knowledge was superstition, and as such had to be opposed.

Albert Einstein

Today, and every day, deliver more than you are getting paid to do. The victory of success will be half won when you learn the secret of putting out more than is expected in all that you do. Make yourself so valuable in your work that eventually you will become indispensable. Exercise your privilege to go the extra mile, and enjoy all the rewards you receive. You deserve them!

Og Mandino

Many cats are the death of the mouse.

Kaspar Hauser

When we are planning for posterity, we ought to remember that virtue is not hereditary.

Thomas Paine

My wife and I have built trust with our children and have always had open communication.

Rick Springfield

History is a better guide than good intentions.

Jeane Kirkpatrick
