We must let go of the life we have planned, so as to accept the one that is waiting for us.

The Word of fire burns today On the lips of our prophets in an evil age.

Margaret Walker

In most communities it is illegal to cry 'fire' in a crowded assembly. Should it not be considered serious international misconduct to manufacture a general war scare in an effort to achieve local political aims?

Dwight D. Eisenhower

In the real world, nothing happens at the right place at the right time. It is the job of journalists and historians to correct that.

Mark Twain

My words fly up, my thoughts remain below Words without thoughts never to heaven go.

William Shakespeare

Be plain in dress, and sober in your diet; In short, my dear, kiss me and be quiet.

Mary Wortley Montagu

I remember thinking that I'd way rather give my parents my money, and not have to like have them go to work anymore, you know what I mean. Because I'd way rather spend more time with them.

Shaun White

Ralph Waldo Emerson

I'm not just a big-haired redhead country singer who dresses flamboyantly, has this wicked sense of humor and wears rhinestones.

Should I, too, prefer the title of 'non-Jewish Jew'? For some time, I would have identified myself strongly with the attitude expressed by Rosa Luxemburg, writing from prison in 1917 to her anguished friend Mathilde Wurm:An inordinate proportion of the Marxists I have known would probably have formulated their own views in much the same way. It was almost a point of honor not to engage in 'thinking with the blood,' to borrow a notable phrase from D.H. Lawrence, and to immerse Jewishness in other and wider struggles. Indeed, the old canard about 'rootless cosmopolitanism' finds a perverse sort of endorsement in Jewish internationalism: the more emphatically somebody stresses that sort of rhetoric about the suffering of others, the more likely I would be to assume that the speaker was a Jew. Does this mean that I think there are Jewish 'characteristics'? Yes, I think it must mean that.

Christopher Hitchens

It was the courts, of course, that took away prayer from our schools, that took away Bible reading from our schools. It's the courts that gave us same-sex marriage. So it is quite a battlefield, and the Supreme Court is the highest court in the land.

Rod Parsley

If you go out with a girl and they say she has a great personality, she's ugly. If they tell you a guy works hard, he's got no skills.

Charles Barkley

Mathematics expresses values that reflect the cosmos, including orderliness, balance, harmony, logic, and abstract beauty.
