This life is for loving, sharing, learning, smiling, caring, forgiving, laughing, hugging, helping, dancing, wondering, healing, and even more loving. I choose to live life this way. I want to live my life in such a way that when I get out of bed in the morning, the devil says, 'aw shit, he's up!

But I don't feel like I did the right thing, either.

Jodi Picoult

Success doesn't mean the absence of failures; it means the attainment of ultimate objectives. It means winning the war, not every battle.

Edwin C. Bliss

Earmarks have become a symbol of a Congress that has broken faith with the people. This earmark ban shows the American people we are listening and we are dead serious about ending business as usual in Washington.

John Boehner

The pleasures arising from thinking and learning will make us think and learn all the more. 1153a 23

Jenson Button

When I write, I feel like an armless leg less man with a crayon in his mouth.
