One of the best temporary cures for pride and affectation is seasickness a man who wants to vomit never puts on airs.

If losers can exploit what their adversaries teach them, yes, losers can become winners in the long term.

And now life has become the future. Every moment of your life is lived for the future-you go to high school so you can go to college so you can get a good job so you can get a nice house so you can't afford to send your kids to college so they can get a good job so they can get a nice house so they can afford to send their kids to college.

John Green

Yoga is not just repetation of few postures - it is more about the exploration and discovery of the subtle energies of life.

Amit Ray

I am not ashamed to use the word class. I will also plead guilty to another charge. The charge is that people belonging to my class think they're better than other people. You're damn right we're better. We're better because we do not shirk our obligations either to ourselves or to others. . . .we live by our lights, we die by our lights, and whoever the high gods may be, we'll look them in the eye without apology.

Walker Percy, The Moviegoer char

The professors laugh at themselves, they laugh at life; they long ago abjured the bitch-goddess Success, and the best of them will fight for his scholastic ideals with a courage and persistence that would shame a soldier. The professor is not afraid of words like truth; in fact he is not afraid of words at all.

Catherine Drinker Bowen

The depressing thing about tennis is that no matter how good I get, I'll never be as good as a wall.

Mitch Hedberg

By the rude bridge that arched the flood, Their flag to April's breeze unfurled, Here once the embattled farmers stood, And fired the shot heard round the world.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Sit in a room and read--and read and read. And read the right books by the right people. Your mind is brought onto that level, and you have a nice, mild, slow-burning rapture all the time.

Joseph Campbell

Girls we love for what they are; men for what they promise to be.

Johann von Goethe
