It began in mystery, and it will end in mystery, but what a savage and beautiful country lies in between.

Victor Hugo

Friendship may, and often does, grow into love, but love never subsides into friendship.

Lord Byron

Common right is nought but the protection of all radiating over the right of each. This protection of all is termed Fraternity.

Victor Hugo

Thomas Browne

I hope that I'll be hot for a long time so I can make a lot of money, I can retire early, and just travel. Hopefully that will happen.

Kristin Cavallari

If you love somebody, let them go. If they return, they were always yours. If they don't, they never were.
