This soul, or life within us, by no means agrees with the life outside us. If one has the courage to ask her what she thinks, she is always saying the very opposite to what other people say.

Virginia Woolf

Let us study things that are no more. It is necessary to understand them, if only to avoid them.

Victor Hugo

It appears I am destined for something; I will live.

Robert Clive

He reproduced himself with so much humble objectivity, with the unquestioning, matter of fact interest of a dog who sees himself in a mirror and thinks: there's another dog.

Rainer Maria Rilke

Each one of these treaties is a step for the maintenance of peace, an additional guarantee against war. It is through such machinery that the disputes between nations will be settled and war prevented.

Frank B. Kellogg

I love the ability to work with very good managers, and to provide the right incentives for them, and truly become a partner with that management, and make that management take a long view.

Henry Kravis

It is only through such real-life daily struggles and challenges that a genuine sensitivity to human rights can be inculcated. This is a truth that is not limited to school education: it applies to all of us.

Daisaku Ikeda

Don't give up. Don't lose hope. Don't sell out.

Christopher Reeve

Dream Song:In the heavens A noise, Like the rustling of the trees.

Frances Densmore

Crime when it succeeds is called virtue.

Seneca (Seneca the Elder)

You can't leave out half the world's experience and expect to address all the problems. Women communicate differently and process information differently, which leads them to resolve conflicts differently.

Dee Dee Myers

In no man's land, alien is the queen.
