Solutions-oriented campaigning with a little passion and a little humor I think that will go a long way. I think people are desperate for it.

I definitely wanted to earn my freedom. But the primary motivation wasn't making money, but making an impact.

Sean Parker

Nay, be a Columbus to whole new continents and worlds within you, opening new channels, not of trade, but of thought. Every man is the lord of a realm beside which the earthly empire of the Czar is but a petty state, a hummock left by the ice. Yet some can be patriotic who have no self-respect, and sacrifice the greater to the less. They love the soil which makes their graves, but have no sympathy with the spirit which may still animate their clay. Patriotism is a maggot in their heads.What was the meaning of that South-Sea Exploring Expedition, with all its parade and expense, but an indirect recognition of the fact that there are continents and seas in the moral world to which every man is an isthmus or an inlet, yet unexplored by him, but that it is easier to sail many thousand miles through cold and storm and cannibals, in a government ship, with five hundred men and boys to assist one, than it is to explore the private sea, the Atlantic and Pacific Ocean of one's being alone.

Henry David Thoreau, Walden, Ch.

Music is one of those things that make us feel a little less alone in the world.

Tom Cochrane

I'm a just a mom when I walk down the street.

Alice Barrett

We must not be so ready to fancy ourselves intentionally injured. We must not expect a lively young man to be always so guarded and circumspect. It is very often nothing but our own vanity that deceives us. Women fancy admiration means more than it does.

Jane Austen

Self-respect is the root of discipline; the sense of dignity grows with the ability to say no to oneself.

Abraham J. Heschel

The reason it has relevance is because I, as a popular Arab personality - the Arab people like me and respect me - thought it was time for me to make an ever so tiny statement about what I thought about this whole thing.

Omar Sharif

Today, one year after their divorce, Pamela and Tommy Lee announced they're getting back together. You know what that means? There's still hope for Ike and Tina Turner.

Jay Leno

If a lot of people gripped a knife and fork the way they do a golf club, they'd starve to death.

Sam Snead

When one feels no shame in telling a deliberate lie, there is no evil, I tell you, he will not do.

Buddha

I write about all the horrible things that can happen to kids as a way of keeping those things from happening to mine. Write the books, spit three times over your shoulder and you're safe.

Jodi Picoult

Welcome to Lake Wobegon, where all the women are strong, all the men are good-looking, and all the children are above average.
