Some people swallow the universe like a pill; they travel on through the world, like smiling images pushed from behind.

I think the most important issue for all of us is our economy and jobs and creating opportunities for young people to be able to get the education that you need to be able to afford to go to college.

Debbie Stabenow

Tricks and treachery are the practice of fools, that don't have brains enough to be honest.

Benjamin Franklin

The striking point about our model family is not simply the compete-compete, consume-consume style of life it urges us to follow. The striking point, in the face of all the propaganda, is how few Americans actually live this way.

Louise Kapp Howe

This June, I'll travel once again to the Food and Wine Magazine Classic in Aspen, Colorado. For many years, my dear friend Julia Child and I have teamed up to teach classes together at the event for the past seven years, my daughter, Claudine, has been my cooking partner on stage.

Jacques Pepin

Getting along with women, Knocking around with men, Having more credit than money, Thus one goes through the world.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Start where you are, use what you have, do what you can.

Arthur Ash

We are made happy when reason can discover no occasion for it. The memory of some past moments is more persuasive than the experience of present ones. There have been visions of such breadth and brightness that these motes were invisible in their light.

Henry David Thoreau

I take cabs if I need to get somewhere or I take car service. I don't drive, I wouldn't mind riding a bike... People think that because you become an entertainer you gotta have this rock star thug image. I'm an artist, man. I'm going to live like an artist.

ASAP Rocky

I don't get angry very often. I lose my temper rarely. And when I do, there's always a legitimate cause. Normally I have a great lightness of being. I take things in a very happy, amused way.

Julia Roberts

So my great love for thee lies tranquil, deep, Forever; though above it passions fierce, Ambition, hatred, jealousy; like waves That seem from earth's core to the sky to leap, But ocean's depths can never really pierce; Hide its great calm, while all the surface raves.

Francis William Bourdillon

My life has been full of terrible misfortunes most of which never happened.

Michel de Montaigne

Genius always finds itself a century too early.

Ralph Waldo Emerson
