Whenever something happens that makes me laugh or if I remember something in the middle of the night that I want to share, I jot the experience down.

Tori Spelling

When you're a kid, you have these big ideas and these big dreams to make a change, or maybe you feel like you can't make a difference.

AnnaSophia Robb

Of liberty I would say that, in the whole plenitude of its extent, it is unobstructed action according to our will. But rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law,' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the right of an individual.

Thomas Jefferson

My mom has always been kind of my backbone. She keeps me strong. She is a mother, a friend. She is really everything to me.

Aerin Lauder

I used to be really nervous when I sang. Like, when I was a kid starting young, 18 and 19, and my dad really had to sort of push me to start singing in front of people. Ever since I got out there and really started doing it, the only thing I've ever tried to do is just sort of is be myself, you know, never put on a voice. Sing naturally.

Dan Auerbach

There is no doubt: the study of man is just beginning, at the same time that his end is in sight.

Elias Canetti

In necessary things, unity; in doubtful things, liberty; in all things, charity.

Anne Baxter

I never dreamt of being a musician for my livelihood. I certainly never would have wanted to be in the business that I'm in, meaning the fame and the glory, the glitter, the rock star, the famous part.

Eddie Van Halen

Today the people from my State of Tennessee would listen to this debate, or even talk about a reference to God on our money or in the Halls of Congress or in our Pledge and say, please, let common sense and logic win the day and prevail versus legal mumbo jumbo.

Granny Weatherwaz was a witch. That was quite acceptable in the Ramtops, and no one had a bad word to say about witches. At least, not if he wanted to wake up in the morning the same shape as he went to bed.

Terry Pratchett

Chaos is inherent in all compounded things. Strive on with diligence.

Buddha

To get the right word in the right place is a rare achievement. To condense the diffused light of a page of thought into the luminous flash of a single sentence, is worthy to rank as a prize composition just by itself...Anybody can have ideas--the difficulty is to express them without squandering a quire of paper on an idea that ought to be reduced to one glittering paragraph.

Mark Twain
