What your heart thinks is great, is great. The soul's emphasis is always right.

Life is extraordinarily suave and sweet with certain natural, witty, affectionate people who have unusual distinction and are capable of every vice, but who make a display of none in public and about whom no one can affirm they have a single one. There is something supple and secret about them. Besides, their perversity gives spice to their most innocent occupations, such as taking a walk in the garden at night.

Marcel Proust

Since I entered politics, I have chiefly had men's views confided to me privately. Some of the biggest men in the United States, in the Field of commerce and manufacture, are afraid of something. They know that there is a power somewhere -- so organized, so subtle, so watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive -- that they better not speak above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it.

Woodrow Wilson, The New Freedom,

Happiness consists in always aspiring perfection, the pause in any level in perfection is the pause of happiness

Leo Tolstoy

The future belongs to crowds.

Don DeLillo

As for the pyramids, there is nothing to wonder at in them so much as the fact that so many men could be found degraded enough to spend their lives constructing a tomb for some ambitious booby, whom it would have been wiser and manlier to have drowned in the Nile, and then given his body to the dogs.

Henry David Thoreau

You have to come in and be that character when you walk into the room. That's what one of my first acting teachers taught me. You know, don't go in there being Jennifer and then expect to flip and change, because they're not going to have that imagination.

Jennifer Lopez

It's hard to say what drives a three year-old, but I think I had a sense that nature was my solace, and nature was a place in which there was beauty, in which there was order.

Story Musgrave

Speech is human nature itself, with none of the artificiality of written language.

Alfred North Whitehead

I can see that if this was an album done 10 or 15 years ago we could see we were moving on to some place else.

Wayne Coyne

From nobody to upstart. From upstart to contender. From contender to winner. From winner to champion. From champion to Dynasty.

Pat Riley

If you go and talk to most people, they mean well but they don't have much of a breadth on education, of knowledge of understanding what the real issues are and therefore they listen to pundits on television who tell them what they are supposed to think and they keep repeating that until pretty soon they say, 'Oh, well that must be true.'

Benjamin Carson

It is a sad truth, but we have lost the faculty of giving lovely names to things.

Oscar Wilde
