I know of no department of natural science more likely to reward a man who goes into it thoroughly than anthropology. There is an immense deal to be done in the science pure and simple, and it is one of those branches of inquiry which brings one into contact with the great problems of humanity in every direction.

I was in fashion school, my brother has a law background, and my sister-in-law had worked in production, but none of us had a proper fashion business education.

Alexander Wang

If you are going through hell, keep going.

Sir Winston Churchill

It is a quite remarkable fact that the great religions of the most civilized peoples are more deeply fraught with sadness than the simpler beliefs of earlier societies. This certainly does not mean that the current of pessimism is eventually to submerge the other, but it proves that it does not lose ground and that it does not seem destined to disappear.

Emile Durkheim

All things come to him who waits -- provided he knows what he is waiting for.

Woodrow Wilson

The irony is that it was tougher to rent a car from Cerberus when it owned Alamo than to buy a semi-automatic. To rent a car, one had to provide ID, a drivers' license, and get insurance coverage. To buy a gun? Cash and carry, from the back of a station wagon at a gun show. No concerns about downstream liability or risk.

Eliot Spitzer

When you have exhausted all possibilities, remember this - you haven't.

Thomas A. Edison

And what's more I've got no need for anyone to tell me how to do it. I am not interested. You act how you want to and leave me alone to do my own thing.

Olivier Martinez

Christina Ricci

Electricity seems destined to play a most important part in the arts and industries. The question of its economical application to some purposes is still unsettled, but experiment has already proved that it will propel a street car better than a gas

Ambrose Bierce

My definition of success is control.

Kenneth Branagh

That knowledge which is popular is not scientific.

Maria Mitchell

Yeah, ideally, I'd probably wish to be more anonymous. But scrutiny and success go together. And I want to be successful.
