Thomas Sowell

Don't waste yourself in rejection, nor bark against the bad, but chant the beauty of the good.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Constant revolutionizing of production distinguish the bourgeois epoch from all earlier ones.

John Lennon

It's not catastrophes, murders, deaths, diseases, that age and kill us; it's the way people look and laugh, and run up the steps of omnibuses.

Virginia Woolf

The most important thing that parents can teach their children is how to get along without them.

Frank A. Clark

Antonio Banderas
