Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one's definition of your life; define yourself.

Sewaktu kanak-kanak aku percaya pada cinta, sama seperti aku percaya pada peri. Namun pada suatu hari aku mencari di celah-celah kayu dan di balik tudung-tudung jamur. Dan aku tidak menemukan peri atau makhluk-makhluk gaib, hanya lumut, jamur, tanah, dan serangga...Serangga itu bukannya berciuman, melainkan saling memangsa

Tom Hiddleston

Everything I did is because I wanted to do it. If I weren't playing this arena, if I were playing a club, I'd still be doing it because that's what I want to do. I love playing the guitar.

Eddie Van Halen

One way or another, I think we are all destined to learn the same lessons in life. Universal truths are universal truths. They cannot be changed.?

Richelle E. Goodrich

When firmness is sufficient, rashness is unnecessary.

Napoleon Bonaparte

It is a noble responsibility to not back down when you know that you know that you know that you are right.

Criss Jami

Lawyers are like rhinoceroses: thick skinned, short-sighted, and always ready to charge.
