When you look at our world, the truth is that we're all under the influence of politics.

Roland Joffe

Too much of anything could destroy you, Simon thought. Too much darkness could kill, but too much light could blind.

Cassandra Clare

You must do as your people do. If my people are poor, I must be poor. People ask me, 'Why don't you find a personal coach or a private car?' I can't. Then I won't be part of my people.

Haile Gebrselassie

When you do something best in life, you don't really want to give that up - and for me it's tennis.

Roger Federer

I think what it takes to succeed remains the same. You have to have a real love of your sport to carry you through all the bad times, you still want to go ski even when things aren't working. You must have a commitment to work hard and to never give up.

Nancy Greene

I cannot praise a fugitive and cloistered virtue, unexercised and unbreathed, that never sallies out and sees her adversary, but slinks out of the race where that immortal garland is to be run for, not without dust and heat.

John Milton

If we're destroying our trees and destroying our environment and hurting animals and hurting one another and all that stuff, there's got to be a very powerful energy to fight that. I think we need more love in the world. We need more kindness, more compassion, more joy, more laughter. I definitely want to contribute to that.

Ellen DeGeneres

I knew from the beginning that privacy was going to be a huge issue, especially with regard to applying Total Information Awareness in counterterrorism. Because if the technology development was successful, a logical place to apply it was inside the United States.

John Poindexter

Women have to be active listeners and interrupters - but when you interrupt, you have to know what you are talking about.

Madeleine Albright

Open wide my door, my Lord, to whatever makes me love You more.

Aaron Weiss

The way you dress is an expression of your personality.

Alessandro Michele

For a God that created everything, it is mystifying why he created so much competition.
