Having a positive mental attitude is asking how something can be done rather than saying it can't be done.

An Athenian citizen does not neglect the state because he takes care of his own household; and even those of us who are engaged in business have a very fair idea of politics. We alone regard a man who takes no interest in public affairs, not as a harmless, but as a useless character, and if few of us are originators, we are all sound judges of a policy.

Thucydides

I cannot discover that anyone knows enough to say definitely what is and what is not possible.

Henry Ford

The significant problems we face today cannot be solved at the same level of thinking we were at when we created them.

Albert Einstein

If you believe in your heart that you are right, you must fight with all your might to do it your way. Only dead fish swim with the stream all the time.

Linda Ellerbee

It's a little bit in the genes because my brother is a journalist and my father was a sports writer.

Patricia Heaton

By adopting a wonderful mutt, you'll save a life and help reduce animal homelessness while also boosting your chances of a more robust new furry friend, as mixed-breed dogs have demonstrated better health and longer life spans than their purebred cousins.

Ingrid Newkirk

Men are rewarded for learning the practice of violence in virtually any sphere of activity by money, admiration, recognition, respect, and the genuflection of others honoring their sacred and proven masculinity. In male culture, police are heroic and so are outlaws; males who enforce standards are heroic and so are those who violate them.

Andrea Dworkin

Anything and everything, physical or otherwise, is defined by its absence.

Eric Parslow

I would request that my body in death be buried not cremated, so that the energy content contained within it gets returned to the earth, so that flora and fauna can dine upon it, just as I have dined upon flora and fauna during my lifetime

Neil deGrasse Tyson

There is something in the pang of change More than the heart can bear, Unhappiness remembering happiness.

Euripedes

My mom thought I might be good for voiceover. She thought I had a cute voice, so maybe I could do a cartoon or something. And while we were looking into that, we also thought I should get into theater acting, so I tried it and the first audition I went on, I booked it. And it kind of just snowballed from there.

Atticus Shaffer

The mediocre teacher tells. The good teacher explains. The superior teacher demonstrates. The great teacher inspires.
