It is not the quantity but the quality of knowledge which determines the mind's dignity.

Your tale sir, would cure deafness

William Shakespeare

You have this lifetime to make the best of your dreams. Don't wait a moment longer and start right now.

Eve Evangelista

After all, what is happiness? Love, they tell me. But love doesn't bring and never has brought happiness. On the contrary, it's a constant state of anxiety, a battlefield; it's sleepless nights, asking ourselves all the time if we're doing the right thing. Real love is composed of ecstasy and agony.

Paulo Coelho

Hope is like a road in the country there was never a road, but when many people walk on it, the road comes into existence.

Lin Yutang

Man consists of two parts, his mind and his body, only the body has more fun.

Woody Allen

Perfect love cannot be without equality.

Scottish Proverb

Painting is the most magical of mediums. The transcendence is truly amazing to me every time I go to a museum and I see how somebody figured another way to rub colored dirt on a flat surface and make space where there is no space or make you think of a life experience.

Chuck Close

I venerate old age; and I love not the man who can look without emotion upon the sunset of life, when the dusk of evening begins to gather over the watery eye, and the shadows of twilight grow broader and deeper upon the understanding.

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

New York has got this sort of wonderful romantic idea of the South.

Josh Lucas

Goals are a means to an end, not the ultimate purpose of our lives. They are simply a tool to concentrate our focus and move us in a direction. The only reason we really pursue goals is to cause ourselves to expand and grow. Achieving goals by themselves will never make us happy in the long term; it's who you become, as you overcome the obstacles necessary to achieve your goals, that can give you the deepest and most long-lasting sense of fulfillment.

Anthony Robbins

The thirst for powerful sensations takes the upper hand both over fear and over compassion for the grief of others.

Anton Chekhov

Buy good books, and read them; the best books are the commonest, and the last editions are always the best, if the editors are not blockheads.

Lord Chesterfield
