As long as we are persistence in our pursuit of our deepest destiny, we will continue to grow. We cannot choose the day or time when we will fully bloom. It happens in its own time.

It is strange that the years teach us patience; that the shorter our time, the greater our capacity for waiting.

Elizabeth Taylor

If I reveal myself without worrying about how others will respond, then some will care, though others may not. But who can love me, if no one knows me? I must risk it, or live alone.

Sheldon B. Kopp

One of the things I've always liked about my husband is he's very good at lots of stuff. He was an English teacher when I met him. He wrote poetry and played the guitar. As time went on, he decided to go into economics, so he's very analytical and mathematical in addition to his artsy side.

Ally Condie

Those have a short Lent, who owe money to be paid at Easter.

Benjamin Franklin

It is commonly said that ridicule is the best test of truth; for that it will not stick where it is not just. I deny it. A truth learned in a certain light, and attacked in certain words, by men of wit and humor, may, and often doth, become ridiculous, at least so far, that the truth is only remembered and repeated for the sake of the ridicule.

Lord Chesterfield

A car for every purse and purpose.

Alfred P. Sloan

Sometimes your joy is the source of your smile, but sometimes your smile can be the source of your joy.

Nhat Hanh

This Congress is simply not doing its job under Republican leadership.

Jim Cooper

A drama critic is a man who leaves no turn unstoned.

George Bernard Shaw

Every time you get on a stage or in front of a camera, the whole exercise is about imagination. You're constantly depicting something that doesn't exist, and trying to find the reality of it. Once you settle on that premise, everything else is a matter of degrees.

Ron Perlman

Well, the way of paradoxes is the way of truth. To test reality we must see it on the tight rope. When the verities become acrobats, we can judge them.

Oscar Wilde

This is faith, receiving the truth of Christ; first knowing it to be true, and then acting upon that belief.

Charles Spurgeon
