Traveling is like gambling: it is always connected with winning and losing, and generally where it is least expected we receive, more or less than what we hoped for.

A truth that disheartens because it is true is of more value than the most stimulating of falsehoods.

Maurice Maeterlinck

If I am fool, it is, at least, a doubting one and I envy no one the certainty of his self-approved wisdom.

George Byron

I have the absolute utmost respect for soap opera actors now. They work harder than any actor I know in any other medium. And they don't get very much approbation for it.

Joan Collins

I really enjoy not getting in a car and running errands on bikes.

Stone Gossard

Change cannot and will not happen overnight. But the intent to evolve will produce opportunities for growth.

Robin D. Hart

If you set as your goal to roll back the size of government, you have an obligation to answer the tough questions and show real courage, not just appeal to ideology. Treat the voters like adults.

Brian Baird

Now Autumn's fire burns slowly along the woods and day by day the dead leaves fall and melt.

William Allingham

Don't look back, just keep on walking.

Everything is politics.

Thomas Mann

Old age cannot be cured. An epoch or a civilization cannot be prevented from breathing its last. A natural process that happens to all flesh and all human manifestations cannot be arrested. You can only wring your hands and utter a beautiful swan song.

Renee Winegarten

I always had to diet. I'm diabetic, so it's a lifestyle for me anyway just to stay healthy and not end up in the hospital.

Halle Berry

Wooing, wedding, and repenting is as a Scotch jig, a measure, and a cinque-pace: the first suit is hot and hasty like a Scotch jig--and full as fantastical; the wedding, mannerly modest, as a measure, full of state and ancientry; and then comes repentance and with his bad legs falls into the cinque-pace faster and faster, till he sink into his grave.

William Shakespeare
