My life looked good on paper - where, in fact, almost all of it was being lived.

Oh! Pilot! 'tis a fearful night,There's danger on the deep,I'll come and pace the deck with thee,I do not dare to sleep.Go down, the sailor cried, go down,This is no place for thee;Fear not! but trust in Providence,Wherever thou mayst be.Ah! Pilot, dangers often metWe all are apt to slight,And thou hast known these raging wavesBut to subdue their might.It is not apathy, he cried,That gives this strength to me,Fear not but trust in Providence,Wherever thou mayst be.On such a night the sea engulphedMy father's lifeless form;My only brother's boat went downIn just so wild a storm;And such, perhaps, may be my fate,But still I say to thee,Fear not but trust in Providence,Wherever thou mayst be.

Thomas Haynes Bayly, The Pilot

Although the time of death is approaching me, I am not afraid of dying and going to Hell or (what would be considerably worse) going to the popularized version of Heaven. I expect death to be nothingness and, for removing me from all possible fears of death, I am thankful to atheism.

Isaac Asimov

For one of the first pressures that bear down on American girls is the pressure not only to be liked but to be everyone else. This initial feat of self-transformation often involves loosening one's grip on that quiet sense of inner self and hitching one's wagon to a single standard of beauty. The stress of leaping through that hoop insinuates itself into the young heart and soul with a vengeance, and insecurities go from being hard little buds of confusion to overripe, snarled and tyrannical fruits that hang on the vine as we age.

Debra Ollivier

The War is over - the rebels are our countrymen again.

Ulysses Simpson Grant, Said to p

The doctor sees all the weakness of mankind; the lawyer all the wickedness, the theologian all the stupidity.

Arthur Schopenhauer

The wise person often shuns society for fear of being bored.

Jean de la Bruyere

If we become one of those societies that attack success, why not come as certain there will be a lot less success? And that's not who we are.

Mitt Romney

I see black light (his last words)

Victor Hugo

Successful people make money. It's not that people who make money become successful, but that successful people attract money. They bring success to what they do.

Wayne Dyer

I could never have gone far in any science because on the path of every science the lion Mathematics lies in wait for you.

C.S. Lewis

El amor empieza a ser un demonio desde el momento en que comienza a ser un dios.

C.S. Lewis

There is an anti-aging possibility, but it has to come from within.
