If I'm pushed, I'd also have to admit I don't like people with allergies. They just annoy me. There seems to be something far too self-centred about it. 'No thanks, I'm allergic.'

Orlando Bloom

Tension, in the long run, is a more dangerous force than any feud known to man.

Criss Jami

You can't have a university without having free speech, even though at times it makes us terribly uncomfortable. If students are not going to hear controversial ideas on college campuses, they're not going to hear them in America. I believe it's part of their education.

Donna Shalala

It's hard to be funny when you have to be clean.

Mae West

The game is my wife. It demands loyalty and responsibility, and it gives me back fulfillment and peace.

Michael Jordan

A man sooner or later discovers that he is the master-gardener of his soul, the director of his life.

James Allen

I'm the first to admit that I like going to, or my memories at least of going to Clint Eastwood movies or Charles Bronson or James Bond.

Nicolas Cage

I had ambition not only to go farther than any man had ever been before, but as far as it was possible for a man to go.

James R. Cook

To love someone means to see them as God intended them.

Fyodor Dostoyevsky

I believe that the testing of the student's achievements in order to see if he meets some criterion held by the teacher, is directly contrary to the implications of therapy for significant learning.

Carl R. Rogers

'A merry Christmas, uncle God save you' cried a cheerful voice. 'Bah' said Scrooge. 'Humbug'

Charles Dickens

Our government declared that it is conducting some kind of great reforms. In reality, no real reforms were begun and no one at any point has declared a coherent programme.

Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
