Men naturally resent it when women take greater liberties in dress than men are allowed.

Close don't count in baseball. Close only counts in horseshoes and grenades.

I think, at a child's birth, if a mother could ask a fairy godmother to endow it with the most useful gift, that gift should be curiosity.

Eleanor Roosevelt

Your mama coming back. Just cause you cant sees a person aint mean nothing. They still there. You worry you never gonna find your mama but she gonna come to you. Close your eyes. I bets you see her good.

Nancy Rawles

There are thousands hacking at the branches of evil to one who is striking at the root.

Henry David Thoreau

I never fell. I don't care what they say. I'm still doing my job, as I see it.

Neil Gaiman

One of the illusions of life is that the present hour is not the critical, decisive hour. Write it on your heart that every day is the best day in the year. No man has learned anything rightly, until he knows that every day is Doomsday.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

All passions exaggerate; and they are passions only because they do exaggerate.

Sebastian Roch Nicolas Chamfort

Both positive and negative thinking are contagious.

Stephen Richards

John Warnock

There's never really been a real hood Christmas movie.

Ice Cube

You see how it is godlike to love the being of someone. Your existence is a delight to us. I hope you never have to long for a child as I did, but oh, what a splendid thing it has been that you came finally, and what a blessing to enjoy you now for almost seven years.

Marilynne Robinson

There is no easy formula for determining right and wrong livelihood, but it is essential to keep the question alive. To return the sense of dignity and honor to manhood, we have to stop pretending that we can make a living at something that is trivial or destructive and still have sense of legitimate self-worth. A society in which vocation and job are separated for most people gradually creates an economy that is often devoid of spirit, one that frequently fills our pocketbooks at the cost of emptying our souls.
