Stephen King

Our economic system, run for profit and waste and based primarily on the extractive industries, is the cause of climate change. We have wasted the earth's treasure and we can no longer exploit it cheaply.

Vivienne Westwood

I did grow up next door to Steve McQueen, who was a very famous movie star at the time, but as a kid it didn't impress me. We always had great fun with him. He would take us out on Sundays on his motorcycles, riding around in the desert he was like a second father.

Herb Ritts

When you put your hand to the plow, you can't put it down until you get to the end of the row.

Alice Paul

Another club can be beating you for six innings but for some reason the good ball clubs get tough and win them in the last three.

We've got a first class leader at the moment. David Cameron is dealing with the issues that he was left by the last government very well indeed.

Theresa May

Henry Ford

One life is all we have and we live it as we believe in living it. But to sacrifice what you are and to live without belief, that is a fate more terrible than dying.

Joan of Arc

O born in days when wits were fresh and clear, And life ran gaily as the sparkling Thames; Before this strange disease of modern life, With its sick hurry, its divided aims, Its heads o'ertax'd, its palsied hearts, was rife.

Matthew Arnold
