I saw you, and I wanted to be close to you. I wanted you to let me in. I wanted to know you in a way no one else did. I wanted you, all of you.

Do not go gentle into that good night but rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Dylan Thomas

My whole life I've had the fear that I was going to be abandoned.

Halle Berry

Slowly, and in spite of anything we Americans do or do not do, it looks a little as if you and some other good people are going to have to answer the old question of whether you want to keep your country unshackled by taking even more definite steps to do so

Franklin D. Roosevelt

I came here to tell you the truth, the good, the bad and the ugly.

Oliver North

People talk about perfect timing, but I think everything is perfect in its moment; you just want to capture that.

Eddie Huang

Abuse a man unjustly, and you will make friends for him.

Edward W. Howe

A gift blinds the wise and perverts the words of the righteous.

Bible

There is in stillness oft a magic powerTo calm the breast when struggling passions lower,Touched by its influence, in the soul ariseDiviner feelings, kindred with the skies.

John Henry Newman

God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference. Living one day at a time; Enjoying one moment at a time; Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace; Taking, as He did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it; Trusting that He will make all things right if I surrender to His Will; That I may be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with HimForever in the next.

Reinhold Niebuhr

There has been a lot of talk lately about the burdens of the Presidency. Decisions that the President has to make often affect the lives of tens of millions of people around the world, but that does not mean that they should take longer to make. Some men can make decisions and some cannot. Some men fret and delay under criticism. I used to have a saying that applies here, and I note that some people have picked it up, If you cant stand the heat, get out of the kitchen.

Harry S Truman

I look at my little girl and I wonder what she's going to be and what she's going to do and what is it that leads girls certain directions in life. I think a lot of that goes back to what kind of father they had, and so it makes me want to be the best dad I can possibly be.

Jake Owen

After the Great Depression and after public urging, a nationwide public competition was held to determine a design for a memorial that would honor President Thomas Jefferson's bold vision for westward expansion for America.
