Hungary is, in a word, in a state of WAR against the Hapsburg dynasty, a war of legitimate defence, by which alone it can ever regain independence and freedom.

But I didn't really enjoy my secondary education that much, probably because I am a very physical person and don't enjoy sitting at a desk all day. I just dragged myself through GCSE and A Levels, so it suited me very much to go on to drama school, which was very active.

Amanda Burton

When you do something, you should burn yourself up completely, like a good bonfire, leaving no trace of yourself.

Shunryu Suzuki

It is absurd to divide people into good and bad. People are either charming or tedious.

Oscar Wilde

I'm left handed, but my dad taught me to play guitar right-handed.

Dustin Diamond

A bad man is the sort who weeps every time he speaks of a good woman.

H. L. Mencken

You are a wonderful creation. You know more than you think you know, just as you know less than you want to know.

Oscar Wilde

It would be mortifying to the feelings of many ladies, could they be made to understand how little the heart of a man is affected by what is costly or new in their attire... Woman is fine for her own satisfaction alone. No man will admire her the more, no woman will like her the better for it. Neatness and fashion are enough for the former, and a something of shabbiness or impropriety will be most endearing to the latter.

Jane Austen

It is unfortunate, considering that enthusiasm moves the world, that so few enthusiasts can be trusted to speak the truth.

Arthur Balfour

I need you. Right now. Let me love you right here, please.

Abbi Glines

I'd love it if American kids were listening to Muslim music.

Brian Eno

To this end the greatest asset of a school is the personality of the teacher.

John Strachan

What is a teacher? I'll tell you: it isn't someone who teaches something, but someone who inspires the student to give of her best in order to discover what she already knows.

Paulo Coelho
