The strong manly ones in life are those who understand the meaning of the word patience. Patience means restraining one's inclinations. There are seven emotions: joy, anger, anxiety, adoration, grief, fear, and hate, and if a man does not give way to these he can be called patient. I am not as strong as I might be, but I have long known and practiced patience. And if my descendants wish to be as I am, they must study patience.

Yes, I see the Church as the body of Christ. But, oh! How we have blemished and scarred that body through social neglect and through fear of being nonconformists.

Martin Luther King, Jr.

It is a career of make-believe, of masks. We all have masks in life.

Judd Nelson

It is the unseen and the spiritual in people that determines the outward and the actual.

Thomas Carlyle

'Humph!' grunted Mr. Romford, seeing his worst fears about to be realized. He had dreamt that he had timbled over a poodle in the drawing-room, and squirted a bottle of porter right into a lady's face. 'Who's goin' besides ourselves?' asked Romford, wishing to know the worst at once. 'Better be killed than frightened to death,' thought he.

Robert Smith Surtees, Mr. Facey

I get bored. We seem to have been having a little bit more time off this winter than last winter. I'm always itching to get back in the car. It's going to get harder, so I've got to make sure that I'm doing everything I possibly can do to make sure I can start next season how I ended this season.

Dan Wheldon

For anyone who feels lost in their own way, going back to who you are and what you love or moving forward to whoever you are meant to be or meant to love, is the purpose of being lost. We lose ourselves, so we can find out who we truly are. And when by fate we do, we discover the best version of ourselves.

Joanne Crisner

Time was with most of us, when Christmas Day, encircling all our limited world like a magic ring, left nothing out for us to miss or seek; bound together all our home enjoyments, affections, and hopes; grouped everything and everyone round the Christ

Charles Dickens

You only find yourself when you disobey. Disobedience is the beginning of responsibility, I think.

Guillermo del Toro

If the sum of living be love's fee,Tremble. You are my one eternity.

Laura Benet

Life always gets harder toward the summit - the cold increases, the responsibility increases

Friedrich Nietzsche

I know not why there is such a melancholy feeling attached to the remembrance of past happiness, except that we fear that the future can have nothing so bright as the past.

Julia Ward Howe

How can a bishop marry? How can he flirt? The most he can say is I will see you in the vestry after service.

Sydney Smith
