If the self-help books worked, it would be a shrinking industry not a growing one.

I never want to change so much that people can't recognize me.

Taylor Swift

In science fiction, you can also test out your own realities.

Theodore Sturgeon

A source of bad conscience, however, is the knowledge that my way of life, austere though it may appear to the richer folk, is still ruinously exploitive of nature -- not in my backyard, where I practice harmlessness toward even the wasps, but in the atmosphere, where my fossil fuel combustion's carbon dioxide is helping change the climate; in all those mountainous places where the metals and minerals that structure and drive my American life are torn from the earth; and in the flesh of fish and birds, mammals, and reptiles, where the chemicals that made the paper and plastic I use bioaccumulate, deforming reproduction. That guilty knowledge is another argument for material simplicity. The less I consume, the less harm I do to that which I love. In a consumer society, harmless living may be simple, but it is not easy. I make no claim to exemplary harmlessness or simplicity.

Stephanie Mills, Epicurean Simpl

We at Chrysler borrow money the old fashion way. We pay it back.

Lee Iacocca

So his life has flowed From its mysterious urn a sacred stream, In whose calm depth the beautiful and pure Alone are mirrored; which, though shapes of ill May hover round its surface, glides in light, And takes no shadow from them.

Thomas Noon Talfourd

Timidity is a fault for which it is dangerous to reprove persons whom we wish to correct of it.

Francois de La Rochefoucauld

I like all of the mental, psychological thriller movies too. I enjoy horror movies across the board.

Sophia Bush

A place for everything, everything in its place.

Benjamin Franklin

There are four questions of value in life, Don Octavio. What is sacred? Of what is the spirit made? What is worth living for and what is worth dying for? The answer to each is the same. Only love.

Lord Byron

The truth is that we live out our lives putting off all that can be put off perhaps we all know deep down that we are immortal and that sooner or later all men will do and know all things.

Jorge Luis Borges

Art raises its head where creeds relax.

Friedrich Nietzsche

Faced with an exciting question, science tended to provide the dullest possible answer.

David Sedaris
