Those who do not think independently are under the influence of somebody else who thinks for them. If you give your thoughts to somebody else, it is a more shameful slavery than if you give you body to someone to possess.

We are all full of weakness and errors; let us mutually pardon each other our follies - it is the first law of nature.

Voltaire

The great corporations of this country were not founded by ordinary people. They were founded by people with extraordinary intelligence, ambition, and aggressiveness.

Daniel Patrick Moynihan

The wise man thinks about his troubles only when there is some purpose in doing so; at other times he thinks about other things

Bertrand Russell

Leadership is not magnetic personality--that can just as well be a glib tongue. It is not making friends and influencing people --that is flattery. Leadership is lifting a person's vision to higher sights, the raising of a person's performance to a higher standard, the building of a personality beyond its normal limitations.

Peter Drucker

It was love, she thought, love that never clutch its object; but, like the love which mathematicians bear their symbols, or poets their phrases, was meant to be spread over the world and become part of human gain. The world by all means should have shared it, could Mr Bankes have said why that woman pleased him so; why the sight of her reading a fairy tale to her boy had upon him precisely the same effect as the solution of a scientific problem.

Virginia Woolf

The tallest Trees are most in the Power of the Winds, and Ambitious Men of the Blasts of Fortune.

William Penn

Welcome to the human race. Nobody controls his own life, Ender. The best you can do is choose to fill the roles given you by good people, by people who love you.

Orson Scott Card

Architecture aims at Eternity.

Christopher Wren

A darkened theater. Final whispers. Black. The projector streams through. The picture surrounds. I fall away. You reach me.

Jolene Stockman

It is the sign of a dull mind to dwell upon the cares of the body, to prolong exercise, eating and drinking, and other bodily functions. These things are best done by the way; all your attention must be given to the mind.

Epictetus

In goodness there are all kinds of wisdom.

Euripides

Actually, if I don't eat healthy food I don't feel good. For me, I crave healthy food.

Kristin Cavallari
