Somebody will always break your records. It is how you live that counts.

Once the fabric of a just society is undone, it takes generations to weave it back together.

Deepak Chopra

Ronald Reagan's well documented final battles with Alzheimer's disease were fought with the same conviction and courage that his many public battles were fought.

William L. Jenkins

It's better to get the nutrients for healthy skin from food, not supplements. Salmon, walnuts, blueberries, spinach... lots of my favorite foods happen to be amazing for skin too.

Gail Simmons

We reproach people for talking about themselves but it is the subject they treat best.

Anatole France

Utility is our national shibboleth: the savior of the American businessman is fact and his uterine half-brother, statistics.

Edward Dahlberg

Instruction does much, but encouragement does everything.

Johann von Goethe

I grew up in a Christian home with amazing parents.

Allyson Felix

So this is where all the vapid talk about the 'soul' of the universe is actually headed. Once the hard-won principles of reason and science have been discredited, the world will not pass into the hands of credulous herbivores who keep crystals by their sides and swoon over the poems of Khalil Gibran. The 'vacuum' will be invaded instead by determined fundamentalists of every stripe who already know the truth by means of revelation and who actually seek real and serious power in the here and now. One thinks of the painstaking, cloud-dispelling labor of British scientists from Isaac Newton to Joseph Priestley to Charles Darwin to Ernest Rutherford to Alan Turing and Francis Crick, much of it built upon the shoulders of Galileo and Copernicus, only to see it casually slandered by a moral and intellectual weakling from the usurping House of Hanover. An awful embarrassment awaits the British if they do not declare for a republic based on verifiable laws and principles, both political and scientific.

Christopher Hitchens

I use a lot of film images, analogies, and imagination.

Carlos Fuentes

A woman's always younger than a man of equal years.

Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Auro

I'm famous for being nicer to my fans than anyone on the face of the earth because I figure, a) They pay my salary, and b) It's probably like a big moment in your life to meet somebody so I would say, 'Just come on up.'

James Wood

I like long walks, especially when they are taken by people who annoy me.
