Man is but a reed, the most feeble thing in nature, but he is a thinking reed.

Curiosity has its own reason for existence.

Albert Einstein

The more unpredictable the world is the more we rely on predictions.

Steve Rivkin

Forgive thyself little, and others much.

Robert Leighton

Without husbands, women have to focus on earning more. They work longer hours, they're willing to relocate and they're more likely to choose higher-paying fields like technology.

Warren Farrell

I usually make up my mind about a man in ten seconds, and I very rarely change it.

Margaret Thatcher

Age shouldn't affect you. It's just like the size of your shoes - they don't determine how you live your life! You're either marvellous or you're boring, regardless of your age.

Steven Morrissey

If I know anything, I know scary. And giving this president and this out-of-control Congress two more years to screw up our future is downright terrifying. Thankfully, this national nightmare is one we can end.

Stephen King

What right have you to take the word wealth, which originally meant well-being, and degrade and narrow it by confining it to certain sorts of material objects measured by money.

John Ruskin

But in the depths of his heart, the older he became, and the more intimately he knew his brother, the more and more frequently the thought struck him that this faculty of working for the public good, of which he felt himself utterly devoid, was possibly not so much a quality as a lack of something --not a lack of good, honest, noble desires and tastes, but a lack of vital force, of what is called heart, of that impulse which drives a man to choose someone out of the innumerable paths of life, and to care only for that one. The better he knew his brother, the more he noticed that Sergey Ivanovitch, and many other people who worked for the public welfare, were not led by an impulse of the heart to care for the public good, but reasoned from intellectual considerations that it was a right thing to take interest in public affairs, and consequently took interest in them. Levin was confirmed in this generalization by observing that his brother did not take questions affecting the public welfare or the question of the immortality of the soul a bit more to heart than he did chess problems, or the ingenious construction of a new machine.

Leo Tolstoy

Your insecurity is when you compare your polaroid with someone else's glamour shot.

Brian Hooten

For what do we live, but to make sport for our neighbors and laugh at them in our turn?

Jane Austen

All men whilst they are awake are in one common world: but each of them, when he is asleep, is in a world of his own.

Plutarch
