The one thing we can do is invest in the quality of education, especially higher education.

And for some reason, when I'm sad, I do listen to Leonard Cohen, I do listen to Joni Mitchell. I do find myself going to the music that's actually reflecting my mood, as opposed to sticking on Motown, which might actually bring my mood up.

Glen Hansard

I really believe I've been a good person. Not perfect - forget about perfect - but just learning by what I was taught and living by my own values. I might have stepped on a few ants - and a few other things as well - but I've never hurt anybody.

Kiri Te Kanawa

For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in the. Ephesians 2:10

Bible

The way to have power is to take it.

Boss Tweed

When entering into a marriage one ought to ask oneself: do you believe you are going to enjoy talking with this woman up into your old age? Everything else in marriage is transitory, but most of the time you are together will be devoted to conversation.

Friedrich Nietzsche

Then, already, it had brought to his mind the silence brooding over beds in which he had let men die. There as here it was the same solemn pause, the lull that follows battle; it was the silence of defeat. But the silence now enveloping his dead friend, so dense, so much akin to the nocturnal silence of the streets and of the town set free at last, made Rieux cruelly aware that this defeat was final, the last disastrous battle that ends a war and makes peace itself an ill beyond all remedy. The doctor could not tell if Tarrou had found peace, now that all was over, but for himself he had a feeling that no peace was possible to him henceforth, any more than there can an armistice for a mother bereaved of a son or for a man who buries his friend.

Albert Camus

This city can be kind of brutal, so you see your dreams from every different angle, but ultimately it's about acting and if you enjoy acting, you will always enjoy acting.

Radha Mitchell

There is no medicine like hope, no incentive so great, and no tonic so powerful as expectation of something tomorrow.

Orison Swett Marden

I think in the NFL knowledge is power, and you try to get the knowledge by whatever means.

Steve Sabol

Worship means reverence and humility it means revering your real self and humbling delusions.

Bodhidharma

The Dove, on silver pinions, winged her peaceful way.

James Montgomery

He does me double wrongThat wounds me with the flatteries of his tongue.

William Shakespeare, Richard II
