One brave deed makes no hero.

No matter how close to yours another's steps have grown, in the end there is one dance you'll do alone.

Jackson Browne

There has been a time on earth when poets had been young and dead and famous - and were men. But now the poet as the tragic child of grandeur and destiny had changed. The child of genius was a woman, now, and the man was gone.

Tom Wolfe

I have some women friends but I prefer men. Don't trust women. There is a built-in competition between women.

Edna O'Brien

Vivre, naturellement, n'est jamais facile. On continue ? faire les gestes que l'existence commande, pour beaucoup de raisons dont la première est l'habitude. Mourir volontairement suppose qu'on a reconnu, même instinctivement, le caractère dérisoire de cette habitude, l'absence de toute raison profonde de vivre, le caractère insensé de cette agitation quotidienne et l'inutilité de la souffrance.

Albert Camus

There is always room for those who can be relied upon to delivery the goods when they say they will.

Napoleon Hill

Woe to the man whose heart has not learned while young to hope, to love - and to put its trust in life.

Joseph Conrad

After all, the chief business of the American people is business.

Calvin Coolidge

It is the rooted instinct in men to admire what is better and more beautiful than themselves.

James Russell Lowell

Deep within man dwell those slumbering powers; powers that would astonish him, that he never dreamed of possessing; forces that would revolutionize his life if aroused and put into action.

Orison Swett Marden

I have never spent a day in my adult life where I didn't learn something, and if there is a born-again quality to me, that's it.

Peter Jennings

Is man merely a mistake of God's? Or God merely a mistake of man?

Friedrich Nietzsche

I feel my family's needs are a priority. I'm not comfortable with the idea of serving the many and ignoring my family.

Susan Sarandon
