These be three silent things: The Falling snow... the hour before the dawn... the mouth of one just dead.

We hurt so much because we have lost a part of ourselves. If we have loved much, we must have given much also, and when everything's over, we feel as though we have lost everything.

Jocelyn Soriano

Most nations, as well as people are impossible only in their youth; they become incorrigible as they grow older.

Jean Jacques Rousseau

There is nothing can pay one for that invaluable ignorance which is the companion of youth, those sanguine groundless hopes, and that lively vanity which makes all the happiness of life.

Mary Wortley Montagu

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

Chris Hankin

I couldn't find the sports car of my dreams, so I built it myself.

Ferdinand Porsche

Temptation is the feeling we get when encountered by an opportunity to do what we innately know we shouldn't.
