No matter how vast, how total, the failure of man here on earth, the work of man will be resumed elsewhere. War leaders talk of resuming operations on this front and that, but man's front embraces the whole universe.

Joy descends gently upon us like the evening dew, and does not patter down like a hailstorm.

Jean Paul

It was cool for a couple of weeks, but how much bad golf can you play?

John Goodman

Mentoring is all about people -- it's about caring, about relationships and sensitivity. As it becomes increasingly in vogue it is becoming too formulated -- concerned with performance metrics, critical success factors, investment and spending. It'll be a disaster.

Rene Carayol

More and more couples are having this negotiation or discussion, but I'm still amazed at the number who aren't and where the cultural norm sort of kicks in and they just assume that mom's got to be the one who stays home, not dad.

James Levine

What doesn't kill us makes us stronger.

Friedrich Nietzsche

In my old age I've come to find that if you respect other people, you feel better about yourself.

Bijou Phillips

And I think of that again as I've written in several of my beauty books, a lot of health comes from the proper eating habits, which are something that - you know, I come from a generation that wasn't - didn't have a lot of food.

Joan Collins

Do not blame your parents for not working hard enough to birth you with silver spoon in your mouth because tomorrow you will be a parent and your children will in turn blame you for not giving birth to them with the desired silver spoon.

Jaachynma N.E. Agu

Remember to get the weather in your damn book--weather is very important.

Ernest Hemingway

It goes without saying that you should never have more children than you have car windows.

Erma Bombeck

The aim of every artist is to arrest motion, which is life, by artificial means and hold it fixed so that a hundred years later, when a stranger looks at it, it moves again since it is life. Since man is mortal, the only immortality possible for him is to leave something behind him that is immortal since it will always move. This is the artist's way of scribbling Kilroy was here on the wall of the final and irrevocable oblivion through which he must someday pass.

William Faulkner

The man of science has learned to believe in justification, not by faith, but by verification.

Thomas Huxley
