The truth is that it is natural, as well as necessary, for every man to be a vagabond occasionally.

To judge a man's character by only one of its manifestations is like judging the sea by a jugful of its water.

Paul Eldridge

Once you hear the details of victory, it is hard to distinguish it from a defeat.

JeanPaul Sartre

Each person must live their life as a model for others.

Rosa Parks

I, however, place economy among the first and most important of republican virtues, and public debt as the greatest of the dangers to be feared.

Thomas Jefferson

My life is part humor, part roses, part thorns.

Bret Michaels

Most men pursue pleasure with such breathless haste that they hurry past it.

Soren Kierkegaard

Eggs and oaths are easily broken.

Danish proverb

Believers, look up - take courage. The angels are nearer than you think.

Billy Graham

Woman's influence is powerful, especially when she wants something.

Josh Billings

Learn to adjust yourself to the conditions you have to endure, but make a point of trying to alter or correct conditions so that they are most favorable to you.

William Frederick Book

Poetry is a sword of lightning, ever unsheathed, which consumes the scabbard that would contain it.

Percy Bysshe Shelley

Of all the various kinds of sexual intercourse, this has the least to recommend it. As an amusement, it is too fleeting; as an occupation, it is too wearing; as a public exhibition, there is no money in it. It is unsuited to the drawing room, and in the most cultured society it has long been banished from the social board. It has at last, in our day of progress and improvement, been degraded to brotherhood with flatulence. Among the best bred, these two arts are now indulged in only private--though by consent of the whole company, when only males are present, it is still permissible, in good society, to remove the embargo on the fundamental sigh.

Mark Twain
