I am increasingly persuaded that the earth belongs exclusively to the living and that one generation has no more right to bind another to it's laws and judgments than one independent nation has the right to command another.

A family is a place where principles are hammered and honed on the anvil of everyday living.

Charles Swindoll

A man, as a general rule, owes very little to what he is born with -- a man is what he makes of himself.

Alexander Graham Bell

I want to make sure that no matter how long I go through this, I don't fall into the trap of changing and modifying how I do things that aren't a positive example. I want to remain somebody that the entire family can listen to or watch.

Clay Aiken

Percussion music is revolution. Sound and rhythm have too long been submissive to the restrictions of nineteenth century music. Today we are fighting for their emancipation. Tomorrow, with electronic music in our ears, we will hear freedom. At the present stage of revolution, a healthy lawlessness is warranted. Experiment must necessarily be carried on by hitting anything-tin pans, rice bowls, iron pipes-anything we can lay our hands on. Not only hitting, but rubbing, scraping, making sound in every possible way...What we can't do ourselves will be done by machines which we will invent.

John Milton Cage

It's interesting that I had such a close relationship with my grandfather. Because your parents always judge you: they say, 'You shouldn't do this, you shouldn't do that.' But with your grandparents you have a feeling that you can say anything or you can do anything, and they will support you. That's why you have this kind of connection.

Novak Djokovic

Accuracy is the twin brother of honesty; inaccuracy, of dishonesty.

Charles Simmons

Everyone seems to have a clear idea of how other people should lead their lives, but none about his or her own.

Paulo Coelho

Some people get an eduction without going to college the rest get it after they get out.

Mark Twain

She was the most wonderful woman for prowling about the house. How she got from one story to another was a mystery beyond solution. A lady so decorous in herself, and so highly connected, was not to be suspected of dropping over the banisters or sliding down them, yet her extraordinary facility of locomotion suggested the wild idea.

Charles Dickens

El Hombre de negro huía a través del deseirto y el pistolero iba en pos de él.

Stephen King

Management must manage!

Harold S. Geneen

My country wrong or right, is like saying my mother, drunk or sober.

G. K. Chesterton
