An ideal wife is one who remains faithful to you but tries to be just as charming as if she weren't.

You can only be free if I am free.

Clarence Darrow

Without stirring abroad, one can know the whole world; Without looking out of the window one can see the way of heaven. The further one goes the less one knows.

LaoTzu

Stephen Bayley

To a well deserving person God will show favor. To an ill deserving person He will simply be just.

Plautus

I feel I'm able to get rid of any demons lurking in my psyche through my writing, which leaves me free to create all of this and to enjoy our family life, stepping away from all the fictional traumas and the dramas. If I write about family in crisis, then I won't have to live through it, I guess.

Which is exactly the way it should be, in the eyes of the amazingly small number of people who own and control the game, because it is this finely managed distance factor that accounts for the high-profit mystique that blew the sacred institution of baseball off its national pastime pedestal in less than fifteen years.

Hunter S. Thompson

Trust yourself. Create the kind of self that you will be happy to live with all your life. Make the most of yourself by fanning the tiny, inner sparks of possibility into flames of achievement.

Golda Meir

I have a dark sense of humor.

Olivia Munn

It is only the modern that ever becomes old fashioned.

Oscar Wilde

In everything, satiety closely follows the greatest pleasures.

Marcus Tullius Cicero

When you see some evil you proceed to immediate action, you make an immediate attack to cure the symptom.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

In solitude we give passionate attention to our lives, to our memories, to the details around us.

Virginia Woolf
