Holiday? Is like, what? I'm a hyperactive girl, so it may be boring for me to be on the beach doing nothing. I just need to find a place for three weeks and work but sleep in the morning, maybe write a little bit, have a glass of red wine. That's my perfect holiday.

Focus more on your desire than on your doubt, and the dream will take care of itself. You may be surprised at how easily this happens. Your doubts are not as powerful as your desires, unless you make them so.

Marcia Wieder

Ah, lust. It makes us forget anything we want to. The greatest relaxant, the greatest stimulant.

James Lusarde

A strange thing has happened -- while all the other arts were born naked, this, the youngest, has been born fully-clothed. It can say everything before it has anything to say. It is as if the savage tribe, instead of finding two bars of iron to play with, had found scattering the seashore fiddles, flutes, saxophones, trumpets, grand pianos by Erhard and Bechstein, and had begun with incredible energy, but without knowing a note of music, to hammer and thump upon them all at the same time.

Virginia Woolf

Things should be as simple as possible, but no simpler.

Albert Einstein

Never eat more than you can lift.

Miss Piggy

You never achieve success unless you like what you are doing.

Dale Carnegie

I became a journalist because I did not want to rely on newspapers for information.

Christopher Hitchens

It's a funny old world.

Margaret Thatcher

Criminals are never very amusing. It's because they're failures. Those who make real money aren't counted as criminals. This is a class distinction, not an ethical problem.

Orson Welles

A lie can travel half way around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes.

Charles Spurgeon

There are some people who want to throw their arms round you simply because it is Christmas there are other people who want to strangle you simply because it is Christmas.

Robert Staughton Lynd

When you feel that you have reached the end and that you cannot go one step further, when life seems to be drained of all purpose: What a wonderful opportunity o start all over again, to turn over a new page.

Eileen Caddy
