Never doubt that you can change history. You already have.

Life is without meaning. You bring the meaning to it. The meaning of life is whatever you ascribe it to be. Being alive is the meaning.

Joseph Campbell

Slaves are generally expected to sing as well as to work.

Frederick Douglass

There is no such thing as a moral or an immoral book.Books are well written, or badly written. That is all.

Oscar Wilde

The guy that made me wanna make movies... and this is off the wall-is a guy named Michael Pal, the British director.

George A. Romero

The seat of knowledge is in the head of wisdom, in the heart. We are sure to judge wrong, if we do not feel right.

William Hazlitt

My mother was a personal friend of God's. They had ongoing conversations.

Della Reese

Knowledge is that possession that no misfortune can destroy, no authority can revoke, and no enemy can control. This makes knowledge the greatest of all freedoms.

Bryant H. McGill

With reasonable men, I will reason with humane men I will plead but to tyrants I will give no quarter, nor waste arguments where they will certainly be lost.

William Lloyd Garrison

Apart from the fact that your physical ability starts to decline, I also think someone in their fifties being childlike becomes a little sad. You've got to be careful.

Rowan Atkinson

If you try and take a cat apart to see how it works, the first thing you have on your hands is a non-working cat.

Douglas Adams

I do not know why there is this difference, but I am sure that God keeps no one waiting unless He sees that it is good for him to wait. When you do enter your room, you will find that the long wait has done you some kind of good which you would not have had otherwise. But you must regard it as waiting, not as camping. You must keep on praying for light: and of course, even in the hall, you must begin trying to obey the rules which are common to the whole house. And above all you must be asking which door is the true one; not which pleases you best by its paint and paneling.

C.S. Lewis

But you only get so many do-overs in this life, so many chances to, if not change your past, alter your future.
