This is one more piece of advice I have for you: don't get impatient. Even if things are so tangled up you can't do anything, don't get desperate or blow a fuse and start yanking on one particular thread before it's ready to come undone. You have to realize it's going to be along process and that you'll work on things slowly, one at a time.

One of the funny things about the stock market is that every time one person buys, another sells, and both think they are astute.

William Feather

Tennis is more than just a sport. It's an art, like the ballet. Or like a performance in the theater. When I step on the court I feel like Anna Pavlova. Or like Adelina Patti. Or even like Sarah Bernhardt. I see the footlights in front of me. I hear the whisperings of the audience. I feel an icy shudder. Win or die! Now or never! It's the crisis of my life.

Bill Tilden

Dying is a very dull, dreary affair. My advice to you is to have nothing whatever to do with it.

Michel de Montaigne

My country has contrived for me the most insignificant office that ever the invention of man contrived or his imagination conceived.

John Adams

I really like to look like a history book. I can look 1940s, I can look 1970s hippie-chic, or sometimes I'll pull that '80s Brooklyn hip-hop kid with the door-knocker earrings.

Katy Perry

When the body of the people is possessed of the supreme power, it is called a democracy.

Charles de Secondat

I hate facts. I always say the chief end of man is to form general propositions - adding that no general proposition is worth a d--n.

Oliver Wendell Holmes

I love Canada. It's a wonderful political act of faith that exists atop a breathtakingly beautiful land.

Yann Martel

The education of a man is never completed until he dies.

Robert E. Lee

A clown on a throne is still a clown. A king in rags is still a king.

C. JoyBell C.

I think the harder you work, the more luck you have.

David Thomas

Where everything is bad it must be good to know the worst.
