Thank God I arrived the day before yesterday, the first of the month, at this port of San Diego, truly a fine one, and not without reason called famous.

Don't limit a child to your own learning, for he was born in another time.

Rabindranath Tagore

You can be good for the mere sake of goodness; you cannot be bad for the mere sake of badness. You can do a kind action when you are not feeling kind and when it gives you no pleasure, simply because kindness is right; but no one ever did a cruel action simply because cruelty is wrong - only because cruelty is pleasant or useful to him, In other words, badness cannot succeed even in being bad in the same way in which goodness is good. Goodness is, so to speak, itself: badness is only spoiled goodness. And there must be something good first before it can be spoiled.

C.S. Lewis

Every decision you make is a mistake.

Edward Dahlberg

Now he has departed from this strange world a little ahead of me. That means nothing. People like us, who believe in physics, know that the distinction between past, present, and future is only a stubbornly persistent illusion.

Albert Einstein

A thing that you see in my pictures is that I was not afraid to fall in love with these people.

Annie Leibovitz

The competitor to be feared is one who never bothers about you at all, but goes on making his own business better all the time.

Henry Ford

Do not worry about your difficulties in Mathematics. I can assure you mine are still greater.

Albert Einstein

Age is the first limitation on roles that I've ever had to encounter, and I hit that awhile ago.

Jack Nicholson

And in my own life, in my own small way, I've tried to give back to this country that has given me so much. That's why I left a job at a law firm for a career in public service, working to empower young people to volunteer in their communities. Because I believe that each of us - no matter what our age or background or walk of life - each of us has something to contribute to the life of this nation.

Michelle Obama

I don't want to discredit people's individuality, but I think people are pretty much the same. People are very similar. If you have a good enough imagination then you can feel things that you personally have never done before. That's acting.

Kristen Stewart

A thing may happen and be a total lie; another thing may not happen and be truer than the truth.

Tim O'Brien

Happiness is a direction, not a place.
