Life is partly what we make it, and partly what it is made by the friends we choose.

The fly that touches honey cannot use it's wings; so too the soul that clings to spiritual sweetness ruins it's freedom and hinders contemplation.

Ghose Aurobindo

I'm not a very serious person. You know how they say that clowns are very funny in public and are really sad at home? I'm really kind of stupid at home and more serious in public.

Roland Joffe

Even though I'm a hype man myself, I like the practicality of it all. People who understand how to turn a profit. At the end of the day, this is still business so I'm looking for real practical knowledge of how to actually make money, not necessarily raise it.

Gary Vaynerchuk

Books are immortal sons deifying their sires

Plato

And out of darkness came the hands that reach thro' nature, moulding men.

Alfred Tennyson

June Jordan

Well, you know, too much democracy is a sort of sad thing.

Ann Richards

Justice means minding one's own business and not meddling with other men's concerns.

Plato

Worry is a cycle of inefficient thoughts whirling around a center of fear.

Corrie Ten Boom

You never see what you want to see, forever playing to the gallery.

Robertson Davies

What our age lacks is not reflection, but passion.

Soren Kierkegaard

Nothing can be more abhorrent to democracy than to imprison a person or keep him in prison because he is unpopular. This is really the test of civilisation.

Sir Winston Churchill
