Only the weak are cruel. Gentleness can only be expected from the strong.

I have seen enough, too, to know that it is not always the youngest and best who are spared to those that love them; but this should give us comfort rather than sorrow, for Heaven is just, and such things teach us impressively that there is a far brighter world than this, and that the passage to it is speedy.

Charles Dickens

It's best to rise from life like a banquet, neither thirsty or drunken.

Aristotle

The most courageous act is still to think for yourself. Aloud.

Coco Chanel

For me, reason is the natural organ of truth; but imagination is the organ of meaning. Imagination, producing new metaphors or revivifying old, is not the cause of truth, but its condition.

C. S. Lewis

The time to save is now. When a dog gets a bone, he doesn't go out and make a down payment on a bigger bone. He buries the one he's got.

Will Rogers

The ability to convert ideas to things is the secret of outward success.

Henry Ward Beecher

I think I'm the most positive guy still going in my generation, and I'm out there to prove that.

Luther Allison

I have dedicated my life to the way of Allah, Most High.

Khalid ibn al-Walid

Young men wish; love, money and health. One day, they'll say; health, money and love.

Paul Geraldy

I've always been attracted to cars, and driving is a completely measurable experience: if you qualify last on the grid, you're the slowest, and if you qualify first on the grid, you're the fastest. So no one can say you're slow if you're fast and no one can say you're fast if you're slow.

Eric Bana

I fancy I need more than another to speak (rather than write), with such a formidable tendency to the lapidary style. I build my house of boulders.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

No foreigner has a place asking another people, another country, to change their constitution.
