I'm equally guilty of using technology - I Twitter, I text people, I chat. But I think there's something strangely insidious about it that it makes us think we're closer when in fact we're not seeing each other, we're not connecting.

Go after what it is that creates meaning in your life and then trust yourself to handle the stress that follows.

Kelly McGonigal

Truth is the property of no individual but is the treasure of all men.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Dogs are not like cats, who amusingly tolerate humans only until someone comes up with a tin opener that can be operated with a paw. Men made dogs, they took wolves and gave them human things--unnecessary intelligence, names, a desire to belong, and a twitching inferiority complex. All dogs dream wolf dreams, and know they're dreaming of biting their Maker. Every dog knows, deep in his heart, that he is a Bad Dog...

Terry Pratchett

Life opens up opportunities to you, and you either take them or you stay afraid of taking them.

Jim Carrey

Poetry is, first and last, language - the rest is filler.

Mark Strand

The truth is, I'm drawn to all kinds of things.

Philip Kaufman

Those who think the information brought out at a criminal trial is the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth are fools. Prosecuting or defending a case is nothing more than getting to those people who will talk for your side, who will say what you want said.

F. Lee Bailey

When younger, I was thin as a rail. As I've grown older, I've put on weight. I have continued to love myself in all those roles. Part of my spirituality, I always tell people, is to accept yourself for who you are.

Troy Perry

Whoever thinks that he alone has speech, or possesses speech or mind above others, when unfolded such men are seen to be empty.

Sophocles

I don't pity any man who does hard work worth doing. I admire him. I pity the creature who does not work, at whichever end of the social scale he may regard himself as being.

Theodore Roosevelt

In my right-wing politics of the time, I held that unemployment was usually the fault of the unemployed.

Luke Ford

In dreams begins responsibility.

William Butler Yeats
