I have been in Sorrow's kitchen and licked out all the pots. Then I have stood on the peaky mountain wrapped in rainbows, with a harp and sword in my hands.

Anger is a short madness.

Horace

Obstinacy in opinions holds the dogmatist in the chains of error, without hope of emancipation.

John C. Granville

My first three years of high school, I wasn't that cool.

Jonathan Bennett

Violence is a very ugly thing. Violence is often so casual on film, and made to look so cool and so sexy, but violence is a repulsive, repugnant act that human beings inflict on each other. It shouldn't seem to be cool and sexy, ever really.

James Purefoy

It seemed that rebellion must have an unassailable base, something guarded not merely from attack, but from the fear of it: such a base as we had in the Red Sea Parts, the desert, or in the minds of the men we converted to our creed.

T. E. Lawrence

Events of great consequence often spring from trifling circumstances.

Livy

What matters to me is that I do what I think is right and I see, I'm a numbers guy, that's my attitude. I know we have a debt tsunami coming, we are bankrupting this country and I'm in a position where I can actually advance ideas to prevent that from happening. That's exactly what I should be doing.

Paul Ryan

Our weakness in the West is born of the fact of so-called objectivity. Objectivity does not exist. The word is a hypocrisy which is sustained by the lie that the truth stays in the middle. No, sir: Sometimes truth stays on one side only.

Oriana Fallaci

Always be yourself, there's no one better!

Selena Gomez

Quality is earned long after midnight the night before a major launch, pouring over details that no one will notice but you.

Rob Rhyne

Shall I not have intelligence with the earth? Am I not partly leaves and vegetable mould myself.

Henry David Thoreau

Moderation in people who are contented comes from that calm that good fortune lends to their spirit.

Francois de La Rochefoucauld
