The price of success is hard work, dedication to the job at hand, and the determination that whether we win or lose, we have applied the best of ourselves to the task at hand.

If nations always moved from one set of furnished rooms to another -- and always into a better set -- things might be easier, but the trouble is that there is no one to prepare the new rooms. The future is worse than the ocean -- there is nothing there. It will be what men and circumstances make it.

Alexander Herzen

The truest measure of success is successity: enriching lives positively.

Ifeanyi Enoch Onuoha

If there is no love in the world, we will make a new world, and we will give it walls, and we will furnish it with soft, red interiors, from the inside out, and give it a knocker that resonates like a diamond falling to a jeweller's felt so that we should never hear it. Love me, because love doesn't exist, and I have tried everything that does.

Jonathan Safran Foer

Excess of grief for the dead is madness for it is an injury to the living, and the dead know it not.

Xenophon

Just because you know I had no other choice doesn't make the anger go away. I understand that. But you're a man now. You can put away these childish things.

Orson Scott Card

I went to a fight the other night, and a hockey game broke out.

Rodney Dangerfield

Why do people complain when your crabby but the moment there crabby you tell them to stop moaning they moan so fuckin unreal

emma mckenzie

It is pretty hard to tell what does bring happiness; poverty and wealth have both failed.

Kin Hubbard

The power of a glance has been so much abused in love stories, that it has come to be disbelieved in. Few people dare now to say that two beings have fallen in love because they have looked at each other. Yet it is in this way that love begins, and in this way only.

Victor Hugo

I think the country's getting disgusted with Washington partly because of the decline of civility in government.

George McGovern

Do not blame your parents for not working hard enough to birth you with silver spoon in your mouth because tomorrow you will be a parent and your children will in turn blame you for not giving birth to them with the desired silver spoon.

Jaachynma N.E. Agu

Gratitude is the inward feeling of kindness received. Thankfulness is the natural impulse to express that feeling. Thanksgiving is the following of that impulse.

Henry Van Dyke
