Sometimes we fight who we are, struggling against ourselves and our natures. But we must learn to accept who we are and appreciate who we become. We must love ourselves for what and who we are, and believe in our talents.

Will it, and set to work briskly.

Friedrich Schiller

This much we know: Journalism is not a precise science. It's, on its best day, is a crude art. We make mistakes I make mistakes. With more than 50 years as a journalist, I have at least had the opportunity to blow more stories, make more mistakes than maybe anybody in television.

Dan Rather

Truth is, you make albums, and some of those songs are hits, and some of the greatest hits albums have songs that weren't hits. You have a career, the reason why we're still around 10 years is that we do have successful songs.

Adam Duritz

I don't know. I think it's funny! I think it's funny! I go, what? It's so absurd. I'm alone.

Danny DeVito

For we are born in other's pain, and perish in our own.

Francis Thompson

He who follows his lessons tastes a profound peace, and looks upon everybody as a bunch of manure.

Moliere

We hear about constitutional rights, free speech and the free press. Every time I hear those words I say to myself, That man is a Red, that man is a Communist. You never heard a real American talk in that manner.

Frank Hague

To have a quiet mind is to possess one's mind wholly; to have a calm spirit is to possess one's self.

Hamilton Mabie

He was a physicist, more precisely an astrophysicist, diligent and eager but without illusions: the Truth lay beyond, inaccessible to our telescopes, accessible to the initiates. This was a long road which he was traveling with effort, wonderment, and profound joy. Physics was prose: elegant gymnastics for the mind, mirror of Creation, the key to man's dominion over the planet; but what is the stature of Creation, of man and the planet? His road was long and he had barely started up it, but I was his disciple: did I want to follow him?

Primo Levi

Failure to prepare is preparing to fail.

John Wooden

I always tell my students, about the biggest baddest things in life you must try to write small and light, save the big writing for the unexpected tiny thing that always makes or breaks a story.

Pam Houston

I like so many different kinds of music just because all I did was listen to the radio as a kid.

Philip Seymour Hoffman
