That's life - to turn each other on, to feel good, to feel in love.

Love is the power to see similarity in the dissimilar.

Theodor Adorno

Oh the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person, having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but pouring them all right out, just as they are -- chaff and grain together -- certain that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and with the breath of kindness blow the rest away

Dinah Mulock

My work always tried to unite the true with the beautiful but when I had to choose one or the other, I usually chose the beautiful.

Tom Stoppard

The culture of independent film criticism has totally gone down the drain and this seems to come with the territory of the consumer age that we are now living in.

Wim Wenders

Wealth, beauty, and fame are transient. When those are gone, little is left except the need to be useful.

Gene Tierney

Strong reasons make strong actions.

William Shakespeare

Do not trouble yourself much to get new things, whether clothes or friends... Sell your clothes and keep your thoughts.

Henry David Thoreau

Indeed, the whole human species is endangered, by nuclear weapons or by other means of wholesale destruction which further advances in science are likely to produce.

Joseph Rotblat

It is to be noted that when any part of this paper appears dull there is a design in it.

Richard Steele

In marriage, each partner is to be an encourager rather than a critic; a forgiver rather than a collector of hurts; an enabler rather than a reformer.

H. Norman Wright

What is there that confers the noblest delight? What is that which swells a man's breast with pride above that which any other experience can bring to him? Discovery! To know that you are walking where none others have walked; that you are beholding what human eye has not seen before; that you are breathing a virgin atmosphere. To give birth to an idea, to discover a great thought -- an intellectual nugget, right under the dust of a field that many a brain-plough had gone over before. To find a new planet, to invent a new hinge, to find a way to make the lightning carry your messages. To be the first -- that is the idea.

Mark Twain

The problem lay buried, unspoken for many years in the minds of American women. It was a strange stirring, a sense of dissatisfaction, a yearning that women suffered in the middle of the twentieth century in the United States. Each suburban housewife struggled with it alone. As she made the beds, shopped for groceries, matched slipcover material, ate peanut butter sandwiches with her children, chauffeured Cub Scouts and Brownies, lay beside her husband at night, she was afraid to ask even of herself the silent question: Is this all?

Betty Friedan
