Life is like crossing a river. If you take a huge step-aim for too bigger dreams-then the current will knock you off your feet and carry you away. The way to do it is small steps, you will take hold of life. You will get there in the end.

It felt very natural to me to write a Christmas song, but at the same time I had to really put all sorts of pressure aside and just let the creativity flow and see what came out.

Christina Perri

I said to my children, 'I'm going to work and do everything that I can do to see that you get a good education. I don't ever want you to forget that there are millions of God's children who will not and cannot get a good education, and I don't want you feeling that you are better than they are. For you will never be what you ought to be until they are what they ought to be.

Martin Luther King Jr.

You might sooner get lightning out of incense smoke than true action or passion out of your modern English religion.

John Ruskin

Nature abhors a vacuum.

Francois Rabelais

It was a woman who drove me to drink, and I never had the courtesy to thank her for it.

W. C. Fields

The evidence unmistakably indicates that you have to spend money in order to make money.

Srully Blotnick

Certainly the best works, and of greatest merit for the public, have proceeded from the unmarried, or childless men.

Francis Bacon

All writers are vain, selfish and lazy, and at the very bottom of their motives lies a mystery. Writing a book is a long, exhausting struggle, like a long bout of some painful illness. One would never undertake such a thing if one were not driven by some demon whom one can neither resist nor understand.

George Orwell

We are always doing, says he, something for posterity, but I would see posterity do something for us.

Joseph Addison

When men are not regretting that life is so short, they are doing something to kill time.

Edward W. Howe

The dice of Zeus always fall luckily.

Sophocles

Technology has forever changed the world we live in. We're online, in one way or another, all day long. Our phones and computers have become reflections of our personalities, our interests, and our identities. They hold much that is important to us.

James Comey
