Because it is in the nature of things that they become extreme, we have passed down from manliness to cruelty. If I had been told when I was 20 that there was a tavern in the town where the brave and the cruel were gathered together, I would have run all the way and I would have gone up to the largest and leatheriest of the denizens and said: If you truly love me, kill the bartender.

The best government is that which teaches us to govern ourselves.

Johann von Goethe

Every run is a work of art, a drawing on each day's canvas. Some runs are shouts and some runs are whispers. Some runs are eulogies and others celebrations. When you're angry, a run can be a sharp slap in the face. When happy, a run is your song. And when your running progresses enough to become the chrysalis through which your life is viewed, motivation is almost beside the point. Rather, it's running that motivates you for everything else the day holds.

Dagny Scott Barrios

We're born with success. It is only others who point out our failures, and what they attribute to us as failure.

Whoopi Goldberg

An absolute can only be given in an intuition, while all the rest has to do with analysis. We call intuition here the sympathy by which one is transported into the interior of an object in order to coincide with what there is unique andconsequently inexpressible in it. Analysis, on the contrary, is the operation which reduces the object to elements already known.

Henri Bergson

Marriage is one long conversation, chequered by disputes.

Robert Louis Stevenson

I know there is a Supreme Being who rules the affairs of men and whose goodness and mercy have always followed the American people, and I know He will not turn from us now if we humbly and reverently seek His powerful aid.

Grover Cleveland

To make oneself an object, to make oneself passive, is a very different thing from being a passive object.

Simone de Beauvoir

In the same way as you cannot work with bees without being cautious, you cannot work with people without being mindful of their humanity.

Leo Tolstoy

But however measurable, there is much more life in music than mathematics or logic ever dreamed of.

Gabriel Marcel

The best mind might be the wisest mind if it were a mind alone that produces wisdom.

Death, the most dreaded of all evils, is therefore of no concern to us; for while we exist death is not present, and when death is present we no longer exist.

Epicurus, letter

With the catching ends the pleasure of the chase

Abraham Lincoln
