I get to travel, see the world, meet people and be independent. I feel blessed.

The common question that gets asked in business is, 'why?' That's a good question, but an equally valid question is, 'why not?'

Jeff Bezos

My point is, life is about balance. The good and the bad. The highs and the lows. The pina and the colada.

Ellen DeGeneres

Mum liked to say that some things happen for a reason, that sometimes obstacles were there to stop you from doing something stupid.

Maggie Stiefvater

There was something peculiarly gratifying about shouting in a blind rage until your words ran out. Of course, the aftermath was less pleasant. Once you'd told everyone you hated them and not to come after you, where exactly did you go?

Cassandra Clare

The Lord is my shepherd. I shall not want for nothing. He makes me lie down in the green pastures. He greases up my head with oil. He gives me kung-fu in the face of my enemies. Amen

Stephen King

I feel really good in the teacher role.

Jimmy Chamberlin

Gossip is only the lack of a worthy memory.

Elbert Hubbard

The fool will upset the whole science of astronomy.

Martin Luther

The stars begin to fade like guttering candles and are snuffed out one by one. Out in the depths of space the great celestial cities, the galaxies cluttered with the memorabilia of ages, are gradually dying. Tens of billions of years pass in the growing darkness ... of a universe condemned to become a galactic graveyard.

Edward Harrison

One must ask children and birds how cherries and strawberries taste.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

If I had to choose between life in the Soviet Union and life in the U. S. A. , I would certainly choose the Soviet Union.

Graham Greene

It is surprising to me that one of the great crimes of history has gone unnoticed; the abduction of god by religions. This slight-of-hand has been the cause of countless blood-shed and has been found at the root of innumerable acts of evil. The argument continues today, as to which religion the true god belongs, when what would be most healing and empowering is to free god from the shackles of religious limitation and judgment. It is by emancipating god from the ignorance of our ancestors that we become empowered to explore and express our own relationship with what god may or may not be.
