God help my neighbors if I loved them as I love myself.

Modesty forbids what the law does not.

Oscar Wilde

I had a very wise person tell me that he thinks marriage, when you're younger, you keep thinking you can fix things. That's what people do. And you can't really fix anything. It shouldn't be a massive difficult thing every day. Life's difficult enough.

Albert Brooks

Don't abuse your friends and expect them to consider it criticism.

Edward W. Howe

Mediocrity is Death.

Suleman Abdullah

Difficult times always create opportunities for you to experience more love in your life.

Barbara de Angelis

William S. Burroughs

That the sea is one of the most beautiful and magnificent sights in Nature, all admit.

John Joly
