I have been very happy, very rich, very beautiful, much adulated, very famous and very unhappy.

People may live as much retired from the world as they like, but sooner or later they find themselves debtor or creditor to some one.

Johann von Goethe

God heals and the doctor takes the fee.

Benjamin Franklin

Most of the most important experiences that truly educate cannot be arranged ahead of time with any precision.

Harold Taylor

The only white man you can trust is a dead white man.

Capitalism does not permit an even flow of economic resources. With this system, a small privileged few are rich beyond conscience, and almost all others are doomed to be poor at some level. That's the way the system works. And since we know that the system will not change the rules, we are going to have to change the system.

Martin Luther King, Jr.

Success or failure depends more upon attitude than upon capacity successful men act as though they have accomplished or are enjoying something. Soon it becomes a reality. Act, look, feel successful, conduct yourself accordingly, and you will be amazed at the positive results.

Dupree Jordan

Brian Eno

When my dad was badly weakened by the flu and my mom wanted to call an ambulance to take him to the emergency room, he wouldn't go unless he could shave first and change into a nice shirt and a pair of slacks.

Rich Lowry

It is the color closest to light. In its utmost purity it always implies the nature of brightness and has a cheerful, serene, gently stimulating character. Hence, experience teaches us that yellow makes a thoroughly warm and comforting impression. With yellow the eye rejoices, the heart expands, the spirit is cheered and we immediately feel warmed. Many people feel an inclination to laugh when looking through a yellow glass.

Johann von Goethe, Theory of Col

You are my brother and I love you. I love you worshipping in your church, kneeling in your temple, and praying in your mosque. You and I and all are children of one religion, for the varied paths of religion are but the fingers of the loving hand of the Supreme Being, extended to all, offering completeness of spirit to all, anxious to receive all.

Kahlil Gibran

I always pass on good advice, it is the only thing to do with it.It is never of any use to oneself.

Oscar Wilde
