Most men would feel insulted, if it were proposed to employ them in throwing stones over a wall, and then in throwing them back, merely that they might earn their wages. But many are no more worthily employed now.

Food can become such a point of anxiety - not because it's food, but just because you have anxiety. That's how eating disorders develop.

Vanessa Carlton

I'm girlie in the sense that I like makeup, but I also love sports and man food.

Carrie Underwood

We are told that people stay in love because of chemistry, or because they remain intrigued with each other, because of many kindnesses, because of luck. But part of it has got to be forgiveness and gratefulness.

Ellen Goodman

If there's to be damnation, she had said, let it be of my choosing, not theirs. He knew a little about damnation himself and he had an idea that the lessons, far from being done, were just beginning.

Stephen King

If you don't want to work you have to work to earn enough money so that you won't have to work.

Martin Luther

There had been an autumn storm of wind and rain, lasting for three days. Thunderous had been the crash of billows on the rocks, wild the white spray and spume that blew over the bar, troubled and misty and tempest-torn the erstwhile blue peace of Four Winds Harbor. Now it was over, and the shore lay clean-washed after the storm; not a wind stirred, but there was still a fine surf on, dashing on sand and rock in a splendid white turmoil--the only restless thing in the great, pervading stillness and peace.

Lucy Maud Montgomery, Anne's Hou

Science is the only truth and it is the great lie. It knows nothing, and people think it knows everything. It is misrepresented. People think that science is electricity, automobilism, and dirigible balloons. It is something very different. It is life devouring itself. It is the sensibility transformed into intelligence. It is the need to know stifling the need to live. It is the genius of knowledge vivisecting the vital genius.

Remy de Gourmont

The world was my oyster but I used the wrong fork.

Oscar Wilde

We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature -- trees, flowers, grass -- grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence. We need silence to be able to touch souls.

Mother Theresa

I have always striven to raise the voice of hope for a world where hate gives way to respect and oppression to liberation.

Theodore Bikel

To preach Christ is to feed the soul, to justify it, to set it free, and to save it, if it believes the preaching.

Martin Luther King Jr.
