One of the darkest, deepest shames so many of us mothers feel nowadays is our fear that we are Bad Mothers, that we are failing our children and falling far short of our own ideals.

I think I've been incredibly raw my whole career. A lot of people spend a lot of time trying to look cool and spend time being guarded and putting up walls. I just never had the time. It seems more honest to say, 'Hey, this is who I am.'

Ryan Adams

He who boasts of his descent, praises the deed of another.

Seneca (Seneca the Elder)

After 'Freaks and Geeks,' I dealt with several producers who wanted to cover up all my beauty marks, every single mole on my body. They tried to cover them on my first two episodes of 'Dawson's Creek,' and it just looked ridiculous, so I had to put my foot down. But it's not something I'm insecure about.

Busy Philipps

Human has no experience at all aboutliving in a peaceful world without war.

Toba Beta

A friendship that like love is warm A love like friendship, steady.

Thomas Moore

I'm completely comfortable with gay marriage.

Elizabeth Edwards

By his very success in inventing labor-saving devices, modern man has manufactured an abyss of boredom that only the privileged classes in earlier civilizations have ever fathomed.

Lewis Mumford

Love is by far bigger than the government can ever be.

Jesse Ventura

Harmony is one phase of the law whose spiritual expression is love.

James Allen

Shell to DOS... Come in DOS, do you copy? Shell to DOS...

The things people say of a man do not alter a man. He is what he is. Public opinion is of no value whatsoever. Even if people employ actual violence, they are not to be violent in turn. That would be to fall to the same low level. After all, even in prison, a man can be quite free. His soul can be free. His personality can be untroubled. He can be at peace. And, above all things, they are not to interfere with other people or judge them in any way. Personality is a very mysterious thing. A man cannot always be estimated by what he does. He may keep the law, and yet be worthless. He may break the law, and yet be fine. He may be bad, without ever doing anything bad. He may commit a sin against society, and yet realise through that sin his true perfection.

Oscar Wilde

Everyone has a right to a university degree in America, even if it's in Hamburger Technology.
