The one thing that you have that nobody else has is you. Your voice, your mind, your story, your vision. So write and draw and build and play and dance and live as only you can.

If an a-s goes travelling he will not come home a horse.

Thomas Fuller

The best generals I have known were... stupid or absent-minded men. Not only does a good army commander not need any special qualities, on the contrary he needs the absence of the highest and best human attributes -- love, poetry, tenderness, and philosophic inquiring doubt. He should be limited, firmly convinced that what he is doing is very important (otherwise he will not have sufficient patience), and only then will he be a brave leader. God forbid that he should be humane, should love, or pity, or think of what is just and unjust.

Leo Tolstoy

Protecting the rights of even the least individual among us is basically the only excuse the government has for even existing.

Ronald Reagan

Negligence is the rust of the soul, that corrodes through all her best resolves.

Owen Felltham

In contrast to revenge, which is the natural, automatic reaction to transgression and which, because of the irreversibility of the action process can be expected and even calculated, the act of forgiving can never be predicted; it is the only reaction that acts in an unexpected way and thus retains, though being a reaction, something of the original character of action.

Hannah Arendt

To know a man, observe how he wins his object, rather than how he loses it; for when we fail, our pride supports; when we succeed; it betrays us.

Charles Caleb Colton

The direction in which education starts a man will determine his future life.

Plato

From our first babblings to our last word,we make but one statement, and that is our life.

Richard Paul Evans

Greed, like the love of comfort, is a kind of fear.

Cyril Connolly

Ninety percent of my game is mental. It's my concentration that has gotten me this far.

Chris Evert

I not only wanted to showcase lyrical skills but also continue to drop knowledge on the hiphop community. I'm looking to elevate through my music, and through my music I educate.

Talib Kweli

And I believe that you never be limited in what you do, so I like to do movies, I like to do television.

Harvey Fierstein
