See, as much as you want to hold on to the bitter sore memory that someone has left this world, you are still in it. And the very act of living is a tide: at first it seems to make no difference at all, and then one day you look down and see how much pain has eroded.

I think predictability has become the rule and I'm completely the opposite -- I like spectators to be disturbed.

Louis Malle

I am God's vessel. But my greatest pain in life is that I will never be able to see myself perform live.

Kanye West

I'm learning as I go. I don't know everything. I never had anybody to look at, nobody ever taught me, and where I'm from I didn't have any famous role models.

Wale

If you join government, calmly make your contribution and move on. Don't go along to get along; do your best and when you have to -- and you will -- leave, and be something else.

Peggy Noonan

There is something in sorrow more akin to the course of human affairs than joy.

C. Fitzhugh

I travel in so many different ways I travel high, I rough it... it all depends on who I travel with.

Diane von Furstenberg

I happen to be interested in watching a face age. I like faces of women aging so it makes me personally quite sad. That's a beautiful gift from God. If people don't want to see that anymore then I won't be in anymore movies.

Debra Winger

I was neurotic for years. I was anxious and depressed and selfish. Everyone kept telling me to change. I resented them and I agreed with them, and I wanted to change, but simply couldn't, no matter how hard I tried. Then one day someone said to me, Don't change. I love you just as you are. Those words were music to my ears: Don't change, Don't change. Don't change . . . I love you as you are. I relaxed. I came alive. And suddenly I changed!

Anthony de Mello

It's not our job to play judge and jury, to determine who is worthy of our kindness and who is not. We just need to be kind, unconditionally and without ulterior motive, even - or rather, especially - when we'd prefer not to be.

Josh Radnor

Even as your body betrays you, your mind denies it.

Sara Gruen

The secret to a happy marriage is to tell your spouse everything, but the essentials.

Cynthia Nelms

We are a rebellious nation. Our whole history is treason; our blood was attained before we were born; our creeds were infidelity to the mother church; our constitution treason to our fatherland.

Theodore Parker
