Therefore I feel that the aforementioned guiding principle must be modified to read: If you desire peace, cultivate justice, but at the same time cultivate the fields to produce more bread otherwise there will be no peace.

In jail a man has no personality. He is a minor disposal problem and a few entries on reports. Nobody cares who loves or hates him, what he looks like, what he did with his life. Nobody reacts to him unless he gives trouble. Nobody abuses him. All that is asked of him is that he go quietly to the right cell and remain quiet when he gets there. There is nothing to fight against, nothing to be mad at. The jailers are quiet men without animosity or sadism. All this stuff you read about men yelling and screaming, beating against the bars, running spoons along them, guards rushing in with clubs -- all that is for the big house. A good jail is one of the quietest places in the world. Life in jail is in suspension.

Raymond Chandler

The man who fails because he aims astray or because he does not aim at all is to be found everywhere.

Frank Swinnerton

Vegetables are a must on a diet. I suggest carrot cake, zucchini bread, and pumpkin pie.

Jim Davis

Husbands never become good; they merely become proficient.

H. L. Mencken

Only two classes of books are of universal appeal. The very best and the very worst.

Ford Madox Ford

I think it's impossible to judge whether another person should come out. You just hope they will on their own time and their own terms.

Billie Jean King

If I have to apply five turns to the screw each day for the happiness of Argentina, I will do it.

Evita Peron

on doit des égards aux vivants, on ne doit aux morts que la vérité.

Voltaire

I don't really have a style icon but I really admire the way people dress like Gaga, Rihanna and Gwen Stefani. It's good to be inspired by singers who write music and dress incredibly - rather than models and people in the fashion industry who dress immaculately anyway because it's their style.

Ellie Goulding

Angry men are blind and foolish, for reason at such a time takes flight and, in her absence, wrath plunders all the riches of the intellect, while the judgment remains the prisoner of its own pride.

Pietro Aretino

Falsehood is so easy, truth so difficult....Examine your words well, and you will find that even when you have no motive to be false, it is a very hard thing to say the exact truth, even about your own immediate feelings -- much harder than to say something fine about them which is the exact truth.

George Eliot

Some will, some don't, so what!
