The notion that the natural world obeys its own rules and doesn't give a damn about your expectations comes as a massive shock... it will demand that you adapt to it

Everything is determined, the beginning as well as the end, by forces over which we have no control. It is determined for the insect, as well as for the star. Human beings, vegetables, or cosmic dust, we all dance to a mysterious tune, intoned in the distance by an invisible piper.

Albert Einstein

Mark Twain

Neil Gaiman

What makes us leave what we love best?What is it inside us that keeps erasing itselfWhen we need it most,That sends us into uncertainty for its own sakeAnd holds us flush there until we begin to love itAnd have to begin again?What is it within our own lives we decline to liveWhenever we find it, making our days unendurable,And nights almost visionless?I still don't know yet, but I do it.

Charles Wright

I want it to be remembered that Ozzy was the first celebrity who was brave enough to open up his private life to the public. He was the first.

Sharon Osbourne

I can remember when the air was clean and sex was dirty.

George Burns

To be honest with you, I don't have the words to make you feel better, but I do have the arms to give you a hug, ears to listen to whatever you want to talk about, and I have a heart; a heart that's aching to see you smile again.lines from Love Vs Destiny...

An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile -- hoping it will eat him last.

Sir Winston Churchill

A generation of the unteachable is hanging upon us like a necklace of corpses.
