Waiting is a trap. There will always be reasons to wait...The truth is, there are only two things in life, reasons and results, and reasons simply dont count.

Your desires and true beliefs have a way of playing blind man's bluff. You must corner the inner facts...

David Seabury

Sometimes I dread the truth of the lines I say. But the dread must never show.

Vivien Leigh

Clarity of mind means clarity of passion, too; this is why a great and clear mind loves ardently and sees distinctly what he loves.

Blaise Pascal

He discovered wonderful stories, also, about jewels. In Alphonso's Clericalis Disciplina a serpent was mentioned with eyes of real jacinth, and in the romantic history of Alexander, the Conqueror of Emathia was said to have found in the vale of Jordan snakes 'with collars of real emeralds growing on their backs.' There was a gem in the brain of the dragon, Philostratus told us, and 'by the exhibition of golden letters and a scarlet robe' the monster could be thrown into a magical sleep and slain. According to the great alchemist, Pierre de Boniface, the diamond rendered a man invisible, and the agate of India made him eloquent. The cornelian appeased anger, and the hyacinth provoked sleep, and the amethyst drove away the fumes of wine. The garnet cast out demons, and the hydropicus deprived the moon of her color. The selenite waxed and waned with the moon, and the meloceus, that discovers thieves, could be affected only by the blood of kids. Leonardus Camillus had seen a white stone taken from the brain of a newly killed toad, that was a certain antidote against poison. The bezoar, that was found in the heart of the Arabian deer, was a charm that could cure the plague. In the nests of Arabian birds was the aspirates, that, according to Democritus, kept the wearer from any danger by fire.

Oscar Wilde

A President is best judged by the enemies he makes when he has really hit his stride.

Max Lerner

Erich Fromm

Yeah, my dad bought me a guitar when I was like 10, and I didn't really want it then.

Miranda Lambert

We can lick gravity, but sometimes the paperwork is overwhelming.

Wernher Von Braun

You've got certain guys that just want to be famous and then you've got the real musicians that just love playing music.

Zakk Wylde

It is because modern education is so seldom inspired by a great hope that it so seldom achieves great results. The wish to preserve the past rather than the hope of creating the future dominates the minds of those who control the teaching of the young.

Bertrand Russell

Never hesitate to steal a good idea.

Al Neuharth

Marriage is not a noun; it's a verb. It isn't something you get. It's something you do. It's the way you love your partner every day.
