I've been in plenty of situations where someone I'm dating had more time for a console than me.

There are two ways to worry words. One is hoping for the greatest possible beauty in what is created. The other is to tell the truth.

Ella Wheeler Wilcox

Nobody could understand why a guy would love his guitar, then all of a sudden turn around and try to destroy it. Jimi was just different.

If there hadn't been women we'd still be squatting in a cave eating raw meat, because we made civilization in order to impress our girlfriends.

Orson Welles

Men must try and try again. They must suffer the consequences of their own mistakes and learn by their own failures and their own successes.

Lawson Purdy

The older author is constantly rediscovering himself in the more or less fossilized productions of his earlier years.

Suddenly the ground seemed to give way beneath me,and I found myself in quite another region.Within five minutes I went throughsome such reflections as the following:the loneliness of the human soul is unendurable;nothing can penetrate it except the highest intensityof the sort of love that religious teachers have preached;whatever does not spring from this motive is harmful,or at best useless;it follows that war is wrong,that a public school education is abominable,that the use of force is to be deprecated,and that in human relations one should penetrateto the core of loneliness in each person and speak to that.http://san.beck.org/GPJ24-Russell,Muste.html

Bertrand Russell, The Autobiogra

No martyr ever went the way of duty, and felt the shadow of death upon it. The shadow of death is darkest in the valley, which men walk in easily, and is never felt at all on a steep place, like Calvary. Truth is everlasting, and so is every lover of it; and so he feels himself almost always.

William Mountford
