When people are very quotable, it can make it harder to listen to what they actually have to say.

Happiness is inward, and not outward and so, it does not depend on what we have, but on what we are.

Henry Van Dyke

Pierre was right when he said that one must believe in the possibility of happiness in order to be happy, and I now believe in it. Let the dead bury the dead, but while I'm alive, I must live and be happy.

Leo Tolstoy

The question isn't 'who is going to let me'; it's 'who is going to stop me'.

Ayn Rand, The Fountainhead

In my wildest dreams, I could not have imagined a sweeter life.

Hugh Hefner

Most of the musicians that I know almost to the man everybody uses Apple computers. They've thought of the steps that you're going to think of when you're trying to create your thing. And that's where the tools get invented to make better art.

Mike Shinoda

Arguments are like fire-arms which a man may keep at home but should not carry about with him.

Samuel Butler

The sort of poetry I seek resides in objects man can't touch.

E. M. Forster

Traditional Albanian society was based on a clan system and was further divided into brotherhoods and bajraks. The bajrak system identified a local leader, called a bajrakar, who could be counted on to provide a certain number of men for military duty.

Sebastian Junger

You can't live your life for other people. You've got to do what's right for you, even if it hurts some people you love.

Nicholas Sparks

You can't afford to get sick, and you can't depend on the present health care system to keep you well. It's up to you to protect and maintain your body's innate capacity for health and healing by making the right choices in how you live.

Andrew Weil

It's true that humanity has seen a succession of crises, wars and atrocities, but this negative side is offset by advances in technology and cultural exchanges.

Abbe Pierre

Americans are benevolently ignorant about Canada, while Canadians are malevolently well informed about the United States.
