You need to eat normally and healthfully, and you need to exercise. I'm so passionate about this because I think people spend their lives not happy in their bodies.

The great majority of men, especially in France, both desire and possess a fashionable woman, much in the way one might own a fine horse -- as a luxury befitting a young man.

I have no confidence issues with the impact or the quality of the music. No one in hip-hop, before this point and to this point, with all due respect, has done this.

People are getting smarter nowadays they are letting lawyers, instead of their conscience, be their guide.

The right diet directs sexual energy into the parts that matter.

Barbara Cartland

Two halves have little choice but to join;And yes, they do make a wholebut two wholes when they coincide...That is beauty.That is love.

Peter McWilliams, (quoted by mar

Beauty is an ecstasy; it is as simple as hunger. There is really nothing to be said about it. It is like the perfume of a rose: you can smell it and that is all.

W. Somerset Maugham, Ashenden, i

There is only one thing in the world worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about.

Oscar Wilde

A monkey glances up and sees a banana, and that's as far as he looks. A visionary looks up and sees the moon.

Today, education is perhaps the most important function of state and local governments.

Bobby Scott

The husband is the head of the wife just in so far as he is to her what Christ is to the Church - read on - and give his life for her (Eph. V, 25). This headship, then, is most fully embodied not in the husband we should all wish to be but in him whose marriage is most like a crucifixion; whose wife receives most and gives least, is most unworthy of him, is - in her own mere nature - lease lovable. For the Church has not beauty but what the Bride-groom gives her; he does not find, but makes her, lovely. The chrism of this terrible coronation is to be seen not in the joys of any man's marriage but in its sorrows, in the sickness and sufferings of a good wife or the faults of a bad one, in his unwearying (never paraded) care or his inexhaustible forgiveness: forgiveness, not acquiescence. As Christ sees in the flawed, proud, fanatical or lukewarm Church on earth that Bride who will one day be without spot or wrinkle, and labours to produce the latter, so the husband whose headship is Christ-like (and he is allowed no other sort) never despairs.

C.S. Lewis

Familiar acts are beautiful through love.
