John Knowles

A woman knows the face of the man she loves as a sailor knows the open sea.

Honore de Balzac

Jennifer Garner

When you think you're right, you're most likely wrong.

Jodi Picoult

All humanity is one undivided and indivisible family. I cannot detach myself from the wickedest soul.

Mahatma Gandhi

It wasn't like I was self-motivated. My dad started me. It was his dream before it was mine.

Venus Williams

I can see the humorous side of things and enjoy the fun when it comes; but look where I will, there seems to me always more sadness than joy in life.

Jerome K. Jerome
