I read once that you need two things to be happy: any two of health, money, and love. You can cover the absense of one with the other two... But now I realized this was unmitigated bullshit, because health and money did not compare with love at all.

A useless life is an early death.

Johann von Goethe

Self-trust is the first secret of success.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

She was a fool, and so am I, and so is anyone who thinks he sees what God is Doing, [writes Bokonon].

Kurt Vonnegut

Beauty is a fragile gift.

Ovid

In the summer I wear shorts with a bright top and ankle boots or just sandals. I'll add a nice scarf, maybe a hat, some cool sunglasses. It's all about the accessories.

Alessandra Ambrosio

There comes a moment when people who have been dabbling in religion ('man's search for God'!) suddenly draw back. Supposing we really found Him? We never meant it to come to that! Worse still, supposing He had found us?

C.S. Lewis

Look to your health; and if you have it, praise God and value it next to a good conscience; for health is the second blessing that money cannot buy; therefore value it, and be thankful for it.

Izaak Walton

Beauty is eternity gazing at itself in a mirror.

Khalil Gibran

Honestly, I didn't have the patience for biology or history in an academic sense, but I always liked the kind of big questions.

Andrew Bird

Practice does not make perfect, perfect practice makes perfect.

Vince Lombardi

Sooner or later, we will have to recognise that the Earth has rights, too, to live without pollution. What mankind must know is that human beings cannot live without Mother Earth, but the planet can live without humans.

Evo Morales

If I were founding a university I would begin with a smoking room; next a dormitory; and then a decent reading room and a library. After that, if I still had more money that I couldn't use, I would hire a professor and get some text books.
