It mocks me as it flies, I know: All too soon the gleam will go; Yet I love it and shall love My dream that brooks no narrower bars Than bind the darkening heavens above, My Jack o'Lanthorn of the stars: Then, I'll follow it no more, I'll light the lamp: I'll close the door.

My mother is a special education teacher but also an artist, and my father an advertising executive. They are about as wacky as you can get without being alcoholics.

Sloane Crosley

I have decided to fight for my country, because we have build a success story in Guanajuato, with real results and more yet to come in the next two years.

Vicente Fox

As I go to sleep I remember what my father said-that one can never be sure if one will awake. The way my health is now, this is becoming more and more real.

Jerzy Kosinski

When a woman marries again, it is because she detested her first husband. When a man marries again, it is because he adored his first wife. Women try their luck men risk theirs.

Oscar Wilde

You can have anything in the world you want if you?ll just help enough other people get what they want.

Zig Ziglar

We must stop talking about the American dream and start listening to the dreams of the Americans.

Ruben Askew

Failure isn't something to be embarassed about; it's just proof that you're pushing your limits, trying new things, daring to innovate.

Gavin Newsom

Keep your fears to yourself, but share your courage with others.

Robert Louis Stevenson

Anyone who has had an experience of mystery knows that there is a dimension of the universe that is not that which is available to his senses. There is a pertinent saying in one of the Upanishads: When before the beauty of a sunset or of a mountain you pause and exclaim, 'Ah,' you are participating in divinity. Such a moment of participation involves a realization of the wonder and sheer beauty of existence. People living in the world of nature experience such moments every day. They live in the recognition of something there that is much greater than the human dimension.http://66.221.137.212/smedberg/cauldron/p50.html

Joseph Campbell, The Power of My

It's not life or death, the labyrinth. Suffering. Doing wrong and having wrong things happen to you.

John Green

The main business is not to see what lies dimly at a distance but to do what lies clearly at hand.

Thomas Carlyle

I never wanted to get married. The last thing I wanted was infinite security and to be the place an arrow shoots off from. I wanted change and excitement and to shoot off in all directions myself, like the colored arrows from a Fourth of July rocket.

Sylvia Plath, The Bell Jar Chapt
