Love's greatest gift is its ability to make everything it touches sacred.

Stephenson had large wrought-iron boiler plates available and he also had the courage of his calculations... The idea found its best-known expression in the Menai railway bridge opened in 1850. Stephenson's beams, which weighed 1,500 tons each, were built beside the Straits and were floated into position between the towers on rafts across a swirling tide. They were raised rather over a hundred feet up the towers by successive lifts with primitive hydraulic jacks. All this was not done without both apprehension and adventure; they were giants on the earth in those days.

J.E. Gordon

You are told a lot about your education, but some beautiful, sacred memory, preserved since childhood, is perhaps the best education of all. If a man carries many such memories into life with him, he is saved for the rest of his days. And even if only one good memory is left in our hearts, it may also be the instrument of our salvation one day.

Martha Plimpton

In these times you have to be an optimist to open your eyes when you awake in the morning.

Carl Sandburg

The things that don't happen to us that we'll never know didn't happen to us. The nonstories. The extra minute to find the briefcase that makes you late to the spot where a tractor trailer mauled another car instead of yours. The woman you didn't meet because she couldn't get a taxi to the party you had to leave early from. All of life is a series of nonstories if you look at it that way. We just don't know what they are.

Anita Shreve

Marriage is nature's way of keeping us from fighting with strangers.

Alan King

My belief is that communication is the best way to create strong relationships.

Jada Pinkett Smith

A man's true wealth is the good he does in the world.

Mohammed

Be not angry that you cannot make others as you wish them to be, since you cannot make yourself as you wish to be.

Thomas a Kempis

New York gave me hell for that 'Purple Swag,' man. They didn't respect me until 'Peso.'
