He looked into the crowd for approval, saw his mother and father. He waved and they waved back. Smiles and Indian teeth. They were both drunk. Everything familiar and welcome. Everything beautiful.

If we consider the unblushing promises of reward and the staggering nature of the rewards promised in the Gospels, it would seem that Our Lord finds our desire not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, we are like ignorant children who want to continue making mud pies in a slum because we cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a vacation at the sea. We are far too easily pleased.

C.S. Lewis

The first law of attraction is use Cosmic Ordering now.

Stephen Richards

For some reason I can't explain, artist and musicians tend to look younger than our age. Being in music, you need this youthful sense of discovery and wonder for what you're doing and keep your imagination open. That's a youthful way of looking at life and I think that reflects in how you age.

Joshua Bell

To disbelieve is easy to scoff is simple to have faith is harder.

Louis L'Amour

'Til the infallibility of human judgements shall have been proved to me, I shall demand the abolition of the penalty of death.

Marquis de Sade

For he who lives more lives than one: More deaths than one must die.

Oscar Wilde

I believe that anybody who gets married should go to a counselor for months before the wedding. I think that's going to save guys a lot of money and the ladies a lot of heartbreak.

James Brolin

To withhold deserved praise lest it should make its object conceited is as dishonest as to withhold payment of a just debt lest your creditor should spend the money badly.

George Bernard Shaw

A complainer is like a Death Eater because there's a suction of negative energy. You can catch a great attitude from great people.

Barbara Corcoran

I hate who I'm becoming, socially. Like, all my social interactions, I'm disintegrating into somebody I want to punch in the mouth.

Tom Segura

Perhaps the magic would last, perhaps it wouldn't. But then again, what does?

Terry Pratchett

All that is gold does not glitter, not all those who wander are lost; the old that is strong does not wither, deep roots are not reached by the frost.

J. R. R. Tolkien
