You cannot depend on your judgments when your imagination is out of focus.

Mark Twain

It was not reason that besieged Troy; it was not reason that sent forth the Saracen from the desert to conquer the world; that inspired the crusades; that instituted the monastic orders; it was not reason that produced the Jesuits; above all, it was not reason that created the French Revolution. Man is only great when he acts from the passions; never irresistible but when he appeals to the imagination.

Benjamin Disraeli

John Stuart Mill

I have a great respect for the academics who are working with the source material. My hat's off to them.

Terri Windling

Christina Aguilera

The fear you feel is a direct reflection of the perception you have of yourself.

Steve Maraboli

Part of the beauty of me is that I am very rich.

Donald J. Trump

It's easy, there's a trick to it, you do it or you die.

Neil Gaiman

Women's rights is not only an abstraction, a cause it is also a personal affair. It is not only about us it is also about me and you. Just the two of us.

Toni Morrison
