How strange a thing this is! The Priest telleth me that the Soul is worth all the gold in the world, and the merchants say that it is not worth a clipped piece of silver.

A bad review is even less important than whether it is raining in Patagonia.

Iris Murdoch

Disagreement produces debate but dissent produces dissension. Dissent (which come from the Latin, dis and sentire) means originally to feel apart from others. People who disagree have an argument, but people who dissent have a quarrel. People may disagree and both may count themselves in the majority. But a person who dissents is by definition in a minority. A liberal society thrives on disagreement but is killed by dissension. Disagreement is the life blood of democracy, dissension is its cancer.

Rock 'n' roll music is what gets me off.

Joan Jett

You find in life that there are different levels of being in love with someone, and maybe everyone doesn't find that undeniable, indescribable... I can't describe it, it's indescribable.

Kristen Stewart

Therefore, you are not training young people for the world of today and the world of tomorrow unless you are doing proven technology training. That is one of the reasons I'm so concerned.

Major Owens

The future is better than the past. Despite the crepehangers, romanticists, and anti-intellectuals, the world steadily grows better because the human mind, applying itself to environment, makes it better. With hands...with tools...with horse sense and science and engineering.

Robert A. Heinlein

The journey for women, no matter what venue it is - politics, business, film - it's, it's a long journey.

Kathryn Bigelow

The beauty that addresses itself to the eyes is only the spell of the moment the eye of the body is not always that of the soul.

George Sand

There is more simplicity in the man who eats caviar on impulse than in the man who eats Grape Nuts on principle.

G. K. Chesterton

She was telling me that I had a life of disappointment before me if I continued to love him as I did. A love that is too strong can turn poisonous and bring great unhappiness. And then, what is the remedy? Can you unlearn your heart's desire? Can you stop loving someone? Easier to drown yourself; easier to take the lover's leap.

Alma Katsu

Read 500 pages like this every day. That's how knowledge works. It builds up, like compound interest. All of you can do it, but I guarantee not many of you will do it.

Warren Buffett

All the gold which is under or upon the earth is not enough to give in exchange for virtue.

Plato
