Memory is the cabinet of the imagination, the treasury of reason, the registry of conscience, and, the council chamber of thought.

Modernity signifies the transitory, the fugitive, the contingent, the half of art of which the other half is the eternal and the immutable.

Charles Baudelaire

Maybe the truth was, it shouldn't be so easy to be amazing. Then everything would be. It's the things you fight for and struggle with before earning that have the greatest worth. When something's difficult to come by, you'll do that much more to make sure it's even harder--if not impossible--to lose.

Sarah Dessen

There's something about Southern women that is so unique yet so universal. Strong southern women are allowed to be soft and feminine and have a sense of humor. But what I love about Southern women in particular is their universality.

Connie Britton

The pleasure of love is in loving; we are happier in the passion we feel than in what we inspire.

Francois de La Rochefoucauld

Yes! I know what I have to face. I have to face a coalition. The combination may be successful. A coalition has before this been successful. But coalitions, although successful, have always found this, that their triumph has been brief. This too I know, that England does not love coalitions.

Benjamin Disraeli

These capitalists generally act harmoniously and in concert, to fleece the people.

Abraham Lincoln

Falsehoods which we spurn to-day Were the truths of long ago.

John Greenleaf Whittier

If I was a woman, I would be dressed in the same thing for a month and just change my hat and gloves. Maybe my shoes too yes, I see what you mean but, really, it's jewels that change an outfit.

Manolo Blahnik

What other people call dark and despairing, I call funny.

David Sedaris

If a man means to be hard, let him keep in his saddle and speak from that height, above the level of pleading eyes, and with the command of a distant horizon.

George Eliot

Therefore in medicine we ought to know the causes of sickness and health.

Avicenna

Art is the path of the creator to his work.

Ralph Waldo Emerson
