Life is trying things to see if they work.

The only real voyage of discovery consists not in seeing new landscapes, but in having new eyes, in seeing the universe with the eyes of another, of hundreds of others, in seeing the hundreds of universes that each of them sees.

Marcel Proust

Keep your feet on the ground, but let your heart soar as high as it will. Refuse to be average or to surrender to the chill of your spiritual environment. The Root Of The Righteous

A. W. Tozer

Instead of a man of peace and love, I have become a man of violence and revenge.

Hiawatha

The triumphs of peace have been in some proximity to war. Whilst the hand was still familiar with the sword-hilt, whilst the habits of the camp were still visible in the port and complexion of the gentleman, his intellectual power culminated; the compression and tension of these stern conditions is a training for the finest and softest arts, and can rarely be compensated in tranquil times, except by some analogous vigor drawn from occupations as hardy as war.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

And there are people who want to be writers because they love to write. And they care.

Russell Banks

Politics and power is a realm of relative influence.

Fareed Zakaria

Perhaps our only sickness is to desire a truth which we cannot bear rather than to rest content with the fictions we manufacture out of each other.

Lawrence Durrell

The only thing we never get enough of is love and the only thing we never give enough of is love.

Henry Miller

Privilege is invisible to those who have it.

Michael Kimmel

Be interested in finding the best way, not in having it your way.

John Wooden

We are symbols, and inhabit symbols.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

When Maurice touched a keyboard, it was like something from a movie, magical. He would always give you something from a movie, and you'd go, what did you just play... immediately inspirational writings, amazing. That's what we're going to miss.

Robin Gibb
