One of the most extraordinary things about being a spiritual teacher is the rare privilege of being able to look deeply into the very souls of many human beings at the same time.

The mystic purchases a moment of exhilaration with a lifetime of confusion; and the confusion is infectious and destructive. It is confusing and destructive to try and explain anything in terms of anything else, poetry in terms of psychology.

Basil Bunting

The best way to sell yourself to others is first to sell the others to yourself.

Napoleon Hill

Regard your neighbor's gain as your own gain, and your neighbor's loss as your own loss.

I know a fellow who's as broke as the Ten Commandments.

John Marquand

You want people walking away from the conversation with some kernel of wisdom or some kind of impact.

Harry Dean Stanton

Drums just always sounded like the most fun part of that good music for me.

Levon Helm

This required abandoning the idea that there is a universal quantity called time that all clocks measure. Instead, everyone would have his own personal time. The clocks of two people would agree if they were at rest with respect to each other but not if they were moving. This has been confirmed by a number of experiments, including one in which an extremely accurate timepiece was flown around the world and then compared with one that had stayed in place. If you wanted to live longer, you could keep flying to the east so the speed of the plane added to the earth

Stephen Hawking

I'll watch any show on the History Channel.

Rick Springfield

Do not despair. Do not give up. Look for the sunlight through the clouds.

Gordon B. Hinckley

Beth Kephart

The only advantage of not being too good a housekeeper is that your guests are so pleased to feel how very much better they are.
