The secret of poetry is never explained - is always new. We have not got farther than mere wonder at the delicacy of the touch

The greatest crime to our own people is to be afraid to tell the truth... the old frontiers are gone. When you think of the defence of England you no longer think of the chalk cliffs of Dover; you think of the Rhine. That is where it lies.

Stanley Baldwin

One of the saddest things is that the only thing that a man can do for eight hours a day, day after day, is work. You can't eat eight hours a day nor drink for eight hours a day nor make love for eight hours --all you can do for eight hours is work. Which is the reason why man makes himself and everybody else so miserable and unhappy.

William Faulkner

When I go to my live shows it's often a multigenerational audience, a family bonding experience.

Al Yankovic

I'm so depressed. Christmas is the worst of all. Holidays are terrible, worse than Sundays. I get melancholia.

David O. Selznick

If you think nobody cares if you're alive, try missing a couple of car payments.

Flip Wilson

I wouldn't be where I am today without the amazing public arts education that I had.

Matthew Morrison

Usually I do everything reverse. I practice something in movies and then I try it in real life.

John Cusack

Power is the by-product of understanding.

Jacob Bronowski

To catch a husband is an art; to hold him is a job.

Simone de Beauvoir

I'm going to get up every morning at 6:30 to work out. Then, when I've kept with it all week, I give myself something I really want, like a new handbag or a piece of jewelry I'm coveting.

Molly Sims

Hatred paralyzes life love releases it. Hatred confuses life love harmonizes it. Hatred darkens life love illumines it.

Martin Luther King Jr.

Selfishly, perhaps, Catti-brie had determined that the assassin was her own business. He had unnerved her, had stripped away years of training and discipline and reduced her to the quivering semblance of a frightened child. But she was a young woman now, no more a girl. She had to personally respond to that emotional humiliation, or the scars from it would haunt her to her grave, forever paralyzing her along her path to discover her true potential in life.
