My thoughts will be taken up with the future or the past, with what is to come or what has been. Of the present there is necessarily no image.

God is not the mere dead conception to which we have thus given utterance, but he is in himself pure Life.

Johann Gottlieb Fichte

We need absolute honesty in public life; and we shall not get it until we remember that truth-telling must go hand in hand with it, and that it is quite as important not to tell an untruth about a decent man as it is to tell the truth about one who is not decent.

Theodore Roosevelt

What beauty is, I know not, though it adheres to many things.

Albrecht Durer

I don't want to have a relationship with someone if I'm not going to work with them.

Bill Murray

Children begin by loving their parents; as they grow older they judge them; sometimes, they forgive them

Oscar Wilde

Live so that you can at least get the benefit of the doubt.

Kin Hubbard

Don't be afraid to let her into your heart and when your down, don't try to carry the whole world on your shoulders.

Elton John

Julia Roberts

Build me a son, O Lord, who will be strong enough to know when he is weak, and brave enough to face himself when he is afraid, one who will be proud and unbending in honest defeat, and humble and gentle in victory.

William Ralph Inge

Our society is run by insane people for insane objectives. I think we're being run by maniacs for maniacal ends and I think I'm liable to be put away as insane for expressing that. That's what's insane about it.

John Lennon

I oppose any attempt to grant homosexual unions the same legal privileges that civil government affords to traditional marriage and family life.
