Oh, but she never wanted James to grow a day older or Cam either. These two she would have liked to keep for ever just as the way they were, demons of wickedness, angels of delight, never to see them grow up into long-legged monsters.

Bruce Lee

Theodore Roosevelt

Short as life is, we make it still shorter by the careless waste of time.

Victor Hugo

If you're going to write, don't pretend to write down. It's going to be the best you can do, and it's the fact that it's the best you can do that kills you.

Dorothy Parker

Money is like an arm or leg - use it or lose it.

Henry Ford
