I speak Spanish to God, Italian to women, French to men and German to my horse.

Of course, I did lots of what would be called graphic design now, what used to be called commercial art.

Leonard Baskin

My dad said, 'The thing that I was told that was really helpful was that I mustn't be afraid of the things I was afraid of when I was five years old'. The shock of his childhood had put him in this defensive crouch against the world, and he needed to know that he had a nice wife and kids and it wasn't the same any more.

Tom Hooper

Charles Darwin

The proverb answers where the sermon fails, as a well-charged pistol will do more execution than a whole barrel of gunpowder idly exploded in the air.

William Gilmore Simms

Give me the liberty to know, to utter, and to argue freely according to conscience, above all liberties.

John Milton

God was satisfied with his own work, and that is fatal.

Samuel Butler

Nothing is pleasant that is not spiced with variety.

Francis Bacon

We will not learn how to live together in peace by killing each other's children.

Jimmy Carter

The very thing that is causing you pain is building you up.

Steve Maraboli

And let there be light,Let there be light where it has long gone overdue.Let there be light in the coldest of places,Let there be light in the darkest of secrets,Let there be light in your hope.Let there be light in your heart,for light is but the only thing for me to give you.Let there be light...

Rosen Topuzov

Every man with a little leisure and enough money for railway tickets, every man, indeed, who knows how to read, has it in his power to magnify himself, to multiply the ways in which he exists, to make his life full, significant and interesting.

Aldous Huxley

Fidelity to conscience is inconsistent with retiring modesty. If it be so, let the modesty succumb. It can be only a false modesty which can be thus endangered.

Harriet Martineau
