The more we live with what we imagine others think of us, the less we live with truth.

It's time for the party of big ideas, not the party of Big Brother!

Mitt Romney

For precocity some great price is always demanded sooner or later in life.

Margaret Fuller

My angel, his name is Freedom, 
 Choose him to be your king;
 He shall cut pathways east and west.
 And fend you with his wing.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

I have found that if you love life, life will love you back.

Arthur Rubinstein

She had been given a wonderful gift: life. Sometimes it was cruelly taken away too soon, but it's what you did with it that counted, not how long it lasted.

Cecelia Ahern

The key for me was to have faith and trust in God to transform me. This was scary because the foundation that once kept me safe and secure was being taken from me!

Michael Barbarulo

People don't fail, they give up

Ron's indignation on his behalf was worth about a hundred points to him.

J.K. Rowling

I've always been attracted to cars, and driving is a completely measurable experience: if you qualify last on the grid, you're the slowest, and if you qualify first on the grid, you're the fastest. So no one can say you're slow if you're fast and no one can say you're fast if you're slow.

Eric Bana

There are all kinds of darkness, and all kinds of things can be found in them, imprisoned, banished, lost or hidden. Sometimes they escape. Sometimes they simply fall out. Sometimes they just can't take it any more.

Terry Pratchett

The majority of pacifists either belong to obscure religious sects or are simply humanitarians who object to taking life and prefer not to follow their thoughts beyond that point. But there is a minority of intellectual pacifists, whose real though unacknowledged motive appears to be hatred of western democracy and admiration for totalitarianism. Pacifist propaganda usually boils down to saying that one side is as bad as the other, but if one looks closely at the writing of the younger intellectual pacifists, one finds that they do not by any means express impartial disapproval but are directed almost entirely against Britain and the United States

George Orwell

Does age matter? Time doesn't matter.
