I think that people who are famous tend to be underdeveloped in their humanity skills.

Hereditary honors are a noble and a splendid treasure to descendants.

Plato

Religions are, by definition, metaphors, after all: God is a dream, a hope, a woman, an ironist, a father, a city, a house of many rooms, a watchmaker who left his prize chronometer in the desert, someone who loves you - even, perhaps, against all evidence, a celestial being whose only interest is to make sure your football team, army, business, or marriage thrives, prospers, and triumphs over all opposition.

Neil Gaiman

What a profound significance small things assume when the woman we love conceals them from us.

Marcel Proust

In a strong relationship, you should love your companion more than you need them.

Steve Maraboli

You don't run against a bloody stop watch, do you hear? A runner runs against himself, against the best that's in him. Not against a dead thing of wheels and pulleys. That's the way to be great, running against yourself. Against all the rotten mess in the world. Against God, if you're good enough.

Bill Persons

Success produces confidence confidence relaxes industry, and negligence ruins the reputation which accuracy had raised.

Ben Jonson

The perfect killer has no conscience.

Brent Weeks

In the United States Christmas has become the rape of an idea.

Richard Bach

If you find a path with no obstacles, it probably doesn't lead anywhere.

Frank A. Clark

Music became a healer for me.

Eric Clapton

Make friends with the angels, who though invisible are always with you. Often invoke them, constantly praise them, and make good use of their help and assistance in all your temporal and spiritual affairs.

Saint Francis de Sales

Innocent amusements are such as excite moderately, and such as produce a cheerful frame of mind, not boisterous mirth; such as refresh, instead of exhausting, the system; such as recur frequently, rather than continue long; such as send us back to our daily duties invigorated in body and spirit; such as we can partake of in the presence and society of respectable friends; such as consist with and are favorable to a grateful piety; such as are chastened by self-respect, and are accompanied with the consciousness that life has a higher end than to be amused.

William Ellery Channing
