Practice random acts of kindness and senseless acts of beauty.

It is indeed a desirable thing to be well-descended, but the glory belongs to our ancestors.

Plutarch

When women are encouraged to be competitive, too many of them become disagreeable.

Benjamin Spock

I like the bad-boy types. Generally the guy I'm attracted to is the guy in the club with all the tattoos and nail polish. He's usually the lead singer in a punk band and plays guitar. But my serious boyfriends are relatively clean-cut, nice guys. So it's strange.

Megan Fox

But I'm not like sad, depressed miserable person. I guess sometimes I give off that impression.

Edward Furlong

When a habit begins to cost money, it's called a hobby.

Yiddish Proverb

Every part of this soil is sacred in the estimation of my people. Every hillside, every valley, every plain and grove, has been hallowed by some sad or happy event in days long vanished. Even the rocks, which seem to be dumb and dead as the swelter in the sun along the silent shore, thrill with memories of stirring events connected with the lives of my people, and the very dust upon which you now stand responds more lovingly to their footsteps than yours, because it is rich with the blood of our ancestors, and our bare feet are conscious of the sympathetic touch. Our departed braves, fond mothers, glad, happy hearted maidens, and even the little children who lived here and rejoiced here for a brief season, will love these somber solitudes and at eventide they greet shadowy returning spirits. And when the last Red Man shall have perished, and the memory of my tribe shall have become a myth among the White Men, these shores will swarm with the invisible dead of my tribe, and when your children's children think themselves alone in the field, the store, the shop, upon the highway, or in the silence of the pathless woods, they will not be alone. In all the earth there is no place dedicated to solitude. At night when the streets of your cities and villages are silent and you think them deserted, they will throng with the returning hosts that once filled them and still love this beautiful land.This text appeared in the Seattle Sunday Star on Oct. 29, 1887, in a column by Dr. Henry A. Smith. Smith took notes as Seattle spoke and created this text in English from those notes.

Chief Seattle, text of Chief Sea

I was thinking that when I have children, that I should always dress as a character for them, so they think their mom is Alice in Wonderland or Cinderella.

As lovers, the difference between men and women is that women can love all day long, but men only at times.

W. Somerset Maugham

No evil can happen to a good man, neither in life nor after death.

Plato

A man who has committed a mistake and doesn't correct it is committing another mistake.

Some people are always grumbling because roses have thorns I am thankful that thorns have roses.
