My parents divorced when I was young but I was brought up in two really loving households. I didn't have a contentious relationship with my mom or dad.

The two powers which in my opinion constitute a wise man are those of bearing and forbearing.

Epictetus

To fail to love is not to exist at all.

Mark Van Doren

If we don't come apart; we will come apart.

Vance Havner

To have great poets, there must be great audiences too.

Walt Whitman

Playing safe is only playing.

Chuck Olson

Age becomes reality when you hear someone refer to that attractive young woman standing next to the woman in the green dress, and you find that you're the one in the green dress.

Lois Wyse

The good man is the man who, no matter how morally unworthy he has been, is moving to become better.

John Dewey

After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp, and fashioned them at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided: men are seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting: such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd.

Alexis de Tocqueville

- Cette métaphore est interdite pendant le vol, a-t-elle déclaré un instant plus tard.

John Green

I have long said there are three distinct groups under the GOP's tent: theological warriors, who want to impose their social views on the rest of society Tea Party zealots, who say with a straight face that they want the government to get out of their Medicare and remnants of the pro-business moderates.

Eliot Spitzer

Bagi gue, rumah adalah dia. Karena dia adalah tempat gue pulang. Karena, orang terbaik buat kita itu seperti rumah yang sempurna. Sesuatu yang bisa melindungi kita dari gelap, hujan, dan menawarkan kenyamanan.

Raditya Dika

It is better wither to be silent, or to say things of more value than silence. Sooner throw a pearl at hazard than an idle or useless word and do not say a little in many words, but a great deal in a few.

Pythagoras
