If a guy is intimidated by a woman in leadership, he has real problems with his own concepts of masculinity. That's a harsh statement, but I believe it to be true.

Possibility is not a luxury; it is as crucial as bread.

Judith Butler

I saw music as a way to entertain people and take them away from their daily lives and put smiles on their faces, as opposed to what I see it being now, which is a way for me to actually communicate, and a way for me to tap into my subconscious.

Alanis Morissette

Every one, more or less, loves Power, yet those who most wish for it are seldom the fittest to be trusted with it.

Samuel Richardson

You can change friends but not neighbours.

Atal Bihari Vajpayee

The riders in a race do not stop short when they reach the goal. There is a little finishing canter before coming to a standstill. There is time to hear the kind voice of friends and to say to ones self: The work is done. But just as one says that, the answer comes: The race is over, but the work never is done while the power to work remains. The canter that brings you to a standstill need not be only coming to rest. It cannot be while you still live. For to live is to function. That is all there is in living.

Oliver Wendell Holmes

How beautiful maleness is, if it finds its right expression.

D. H. (David Herbert) Lawrence

Was joy created always to live under that threat? Always defenseless to those who would rather be miserable than have their self will be crossed? Can you really have thought that love and joy would always be at the mercy of frowns and sighs?The demand of the loveless; that they should be allowed to blackmail the universe; that til they consent to be happy-on their own terms- no one else shall taste joy; that theirs should be the final power; that Hell should be able to VETO HEAVEN?

C.S. Lewis

Everything is worth precisely as much as a belch, the difference being that a belch is more satisfying.

Ingmar Bergman

Truth is everybody is going to hurt you: you just gotta find the ones worth suffering for.

Bob Marley

There's no love more intense than the love we have for our kids - and where there is intense love, there is also intense fear lurking beneath the surface.

Arianna Huffington

Vitality shows not only in the ability to persist, but in the ability to start over.

There are minds so impatient of inferiority that their gratitude is a species of revenge, and they return benefits, not because recompense is a pleasure, but because obligation is a pain.

Samuel Johnson
