You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take.

Success is liking yourself, liking what you do, and liking how you do it

Maya Angelou

The computer is a moron.

Peter Drucker

There is no gilding of setting sun or glamor of poetry to light up the ferocious and endless toil of the farmers' wives.

Hamlin Garland

In a WWII radio talk, Lewis champions the well-established idea that actions lead emotions. Although he is making the point with respect to love, he illustrates with the opposite. The Germans hated the Jews, then acted on that. Because they did, their loathing was intensified by their own actions.

C.S. Lewis

Worship God by reverencing the human soul as God's chosen sanctuary. Revere it in yourselves, revere it in others, and labor to carry it forward. ...Go forth to respect the rights, and seek the true, enduring welfare of all within your influence. Carry with you the conviction that to trample on a human being, of whatevercolor, clime, rank, condition, is to trample on God's child. ...Go forth to do good with every power which God bestows, to make every place you enter happier by your presence, to espouse all human interests, to throw your whole weight into the scale of human freedom and improvement, to withstand all wrong, to uphold all right, and especially to give light, life, strength to the immortal soul.

William Ellery Channing, Christi

As for old age, embrace and love it. It abounds with pleasure if you know how to use it. The gradually declining years are among the sweetest in a man's life, and I maintain that, even when they have reached the extreme limit, they have their pleasure still.

Seneca (Seneca the Elder)

If love dies, that's when we've all truly died.

Keary Taylor

Surround yourself with the best people you can find, delegate authority, and don't interfere.

Ronald Reagan

I've always been the type to fall in love fast and, with every boyfriend, I plan out my wedding in my head.

Kim Kardashian

Even if I accepted that Jesus - like almost every other prophet on record - was born of a virgin, I cannot think that this proves the divinity of his father or the truth of his teachings. The same would be true if I accepted that he had been resurrected.

Christopher Hitchens

Publishers are notoriously slothful about numbers, unless they're attached to dollar signs -- unlike journalists, quarterbacks, and felony criminal defendants who tend to be keenly aware of numbers at all times.

Hunter S. Thompson

Everybody past a certain age, regardless of how they look on the outside, pretty much constantly dreams of being able to escape from their lives.

Doug Coupland
