Being stuck is a position few of us like. We want something new but cannot let go of the old -- old ideas, beliefs, habits, even thoughts. We are out of contact with our own genius. Sometimes we know we are stuck; sometimes we don't. In both cases we have to DO something.

Take a look at your natural river. What are you? Stop playing games with yourself. Where's your river going? Are you riding with it? Or are you rowing against it? Don't you see that there is no effort if you're riding with your river?

Frederick (Carl) Frieseke

We need transparency in government spending. We need to put each government expenditure online so every Floridian can see where their tax money is being spent.

Marco Rubio

I think that's very sad, that I haven't allowed my heart to be broken. I have broken a few.

Sally Field

The three great ends which a statesman ought to propose to himself in the government of a nation, are one, Security to possessors two, facility to acquirers and three, hope to all.

Samuel Taylor Coleridge

Writers, as they gain success, feel like outsiders because writers don't come together in real groups.

Anne Rice

I would hesitate to use the word 'success' in the way many people do. I don't know that I would apply it to what I've done as though I have now reached the ultimate goal. To me success is a continuing thing. It is growth and development. It is achieving one thing and using that as a stepping stone to achieve something else. Success comes as you have confidence in yourself. Self-confidence is built by succeeding, even if the success is small. It is the believing that makes it possible.

Walter Knott

A man sits in his car at the traffic lights, waiting for them to go green.

Michael Frayn

I stone got crazy when I saw somebody run down them strings with a bottleneck. My eyes lit up like a Christmas tree and I said that I had to learn.

Muddy Waters

Pure and absolute truth can only be found beyond all its possible expressions; these expressions, as such, cannot claim the attributes of this truth, their relative remoteness from it is expressed by their differentiation and multiplicity, by which they are strictly limited.

Frithjof Schuon

We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light.

Plato

The idea of trying to create things that last - forever knowledge - has guided my work for a long time now.

Edward Tufte

Faith as the state of being ultimately concerned implies love, namely, the desire and urge toward the reunion of the seperated.
