The profit of books is according to the sensibility of the reader. The profoundest thought or passion sleeps as in a mine, until an equal mind and heart finds and publishes it.

The perfecting of one's self is the fundamental base of all progress and all moral development.

Confucius

You have got to discover you, what you do, and trust it.

Barbra Streisand

If you just watch a teenager, you see a lot of uncertainty.

Jamie Lee Curtis

We are never deceived; we deceive ourselves.

Johann von Goethe

Common to all these types is the anthropomorphic character of their conception of God. In general, only individuals of exceptional endowments, and exceptionally high-minded communities, rise to any considerable extent above this level. But there is a third stage of religious experience which belongs to all of them, even though it is rarely found in a pure form: I shall call it cosmic religious feeling. It is very difficult to elucidate this feeling to anyone who is entirely without it, especially as there is no anthropomorphic conception of God corresponding to it.

Albert Einstein

I have such an extreme attitude about work, where I can just completely be derelict of my responsibilities and then when I am not derelict, I am completely indulged in it. I swing pretty wildly from the two extremes.

Geddy Lee

The miserable have no other medicine but only hope.

William Shakespeare

'He insulted me, he cheated me, he beat me, he robbed me' -- those who are free of resentful thoughts surely find peace.

Buddha

Repartee is perfect when it effects its purpose with a double edge. It is the highest order of wit, as it indicates the coolest yet quickest exercise of genius, at a moment when the passions are roused.

Charles Caleb Colton

We're not doing outrageous fashion I make sports clothes that are relatively conservative, clothes that everyone wears.

Calvin Klein

To build may have to be the slow and laborious task of years. To destroy can be the thoughtless act of a single day.

Sir Winston Churchill

I've never considered myself a celebrity or even part of the entertainment business. I'm a cooking teacher.
