You make the mistake of thinking you have to choose, that you have to do what you want, that there are conditions for happiness. What matters- all that matters, really- is the will to happiness, a kind of enormous, ever present consciousness. The rest- women, art, success- is nothing but excuses. A canvas waiting for our embroideries.

The path to success is to take massive, determined action.

Anthony Robbins

I won't say there aren't any Harvard graduates who have never asserted a superior attitude. But they have done so to our great embarrassment and in no way represent the Harvard I know.

Derek Bok

I love the fact that there are also women out there that don't have a choice and they must go to work and they still have to raise the kids. Thank goodness that we value those people too.

Ann Romney

In Spain, we should have enough intelligence, enough sense of individual and collective responsibility to do for ourselves that which would be imposed upon us by a dictatorship.

Frederica Montseny

By starving emotions we become humorless, rigid and stereotyped; by repressing them we become literal, reformatory and holier-than-thou; encouraged, they perfume life; discouraged, they poison it.

Joseph Collins

He that does not bring up his son to some honest calling and employment, brings him up to be a thief.

Yiddish Proverb

The political system is not for the people. The people are secondary to the economy. It's about what generates money, not about what benefits the people.

Ziggy Marley

You ask particularly after my health. I suppose that I have not many months to live; but, of course, I know nothing about it. I may add that I am enjoying existence as much as ever, and regret nothing.

Henry David Thoreau

We Greeks believe that a man who takes no part in public affairs is not merely lazy, but good for nothing

Thucydides

My advice is to look out for engineers. They begin with sewing machines and end up with nuclear bombs.

Marcel Pagnol

You enter a state of controlled passivity, you relax your grip and accept that even if your declared intention is to justify the ways of God to man, you might end up interesting your readers rather more in Satan.

Ian Mcewan

Não estatize meus sentimentos. Pra seu governo, o meu estado é independente.
