Love conquers all, but if love doesn't do it, try hard work

One seeks to make the loved one entirely happy, or, if that cannot be, entirely wretched.

Jean de la Bruyere

I am sure that since I have had the full use of my reason, nobody has heard me laugh.

Philip Dormer Stanhope

There are certain pursuits which, if not wholly poetic and true, do at least suggest a nobler and finer relation to nature than we know. The keeping of bees, for instance.

Henry David Thoreau

God buries His workmen but carries on His work.

Charles Wesley

Good design begins with honesty, asks tough questions, comes from collaboration and from trusting your intuition.

Freeman Thomas

They said I would never live. I lived. They said I would never think. I think. They said I would never walk. I walked. They said I would never dance, but I never danced anyway.

Benedict J. Groeschel

Famous pivot stories are often failures but you don't need to fail before you pivot. All a pivot is is a change is strategy without a change in vision. Whenever entrepreneurs see a new way to achieve their vision - a way to be more successful - they have to remain nimble enough to take it.

Eric Ries

O Hathor, Cleo began, why bless me with an abundance of gorgeousness and then deprive me of people to envy it? Especially on a Saturday night?

I love Charlie, Billy Burke's character. Writing for him is so spectacular, he's so funny and wry and every scene he's in he just takes. There's a scene in 'Eclipse' where Bella tells him she's a virgin, and it's the funniest, most awkward scene I've ever seen on film.

Melissa Rosenberg

When workmen strive to do better than well, they do confound their skill in covetousness.

William Shakespeare

He said that he felt like the boy that stumped his toe,it hurt too bad to laugh, and he was too big to cry.

Abraham Lincoln

I have absolutely no empathy for camels. I didn't care for being abused in the Middle East by those horrible, horrible, horrible creatures. They don't like people. It's not at all like the relationship between horses and humans.
