When an opinion has taken root in a democracy and established itself in the minds of the majority, if afterward persists by itself, needing no effort to maintain it since no one attacks it. Those who at first rejected it as false come in the end to adopt it as accepted, and even those who still at the bottom of their hearts oppose it keep their views to themselves, taking great care to avoid a dangerous and futile contest.

I am so happy, so in love, and so content.

Brooke Burns

If each one does their duty as an individual and if each one works in their own proper vocation, it will be right with the whole.

Johann von Goethe

Memory is a sly devil that pretends to wear the cloak of truth, but deceives us both in our youth and our age.

Harley King

Aus Lügen, die wir glauben, werden Wahrheiten, mit denen wir leben.

Oliver Hassencamp

Come watch with me the shaft of fire that glowsIn yonder West: the fair, frail palaces,The fading Alps and archipelagoes,And great cloud-continents of sunset-seas.

Thomas Bailey Aldrich, Sonnet, M

I'm not an actress who can create a character. I play me.

Mary Tyler Moore

Love's best habit is a soothing tongue

William Shakespeare

It is better to go into captivity with the whole village than to go to a wedding alone.

Armenian Proverb

Insist on yourself never imitate. Your own gift you can present every moment with the cumulative force of a whole life's cultivation but of the adopted talent of another you have only an extemporaneous half possession... Do that which is assigned to you, and you cannot hope too much or dare too much.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

We are firm believers in the maxim that for all right judgment of any man or thing it is useful, nay, essential, to see his good qualities before pronouncing on his bad.

Thomas Carlyle

Pain is as diverse as man. One suffers as one can.

Victor Hugo

Not without hope we suffer and we mourn.

William Wordsworth
