An unjust peace is better than a just war.

Marcus Tullius Cicero

I think that if we get back to some basic fundamental principles, we can make sure that we resolve the issues. And I think that that's what the Tea Party was all about. It's getting back to a constitutional conservative government. And that is limited, but it's also effective and efficient. I think that that's what we'll be able to do.

Ryszard Kapuscinski

I was lucky enough to be the lady that was asked to be Maria in the Sound Of Music, and that film was fortunate enough to be huge hit. The same with Mary Poppins. I got terribly lucky in that respect.

I truly respect the people who are working. If they want an autograph from Patti LaBelle, they are going to get it. I have never separated myself from them. I never think you are better than the next one.

Noam Chomsky

It's not because I don't want to hurt Delia's feelings. It's because when she is bruised, I'm the one who aches.

Jodi Picoult

We are growing serious, and let me tell you, that's the next step to being dull.

Joseph Addison

You can't not look cool with a crossbow.

Norman Reedus

Fashion is more about feel than science.

Pharrell Williams

The antiquity and general acceptance of an opinion is not assurance of its truth.
