The weather and my mood have little connection. I have my foggy and my fine days within me; my prosperity or misfortune has little to do with the matter.

It's not wise to violate rules until you know how to observe them.

TS (Thomas Stearns) Eliot

No one loves the man whom he fears.

Aristotle

I am the most well-adjusted human being I know. I started out this investigation as a very happy man with a great career. I've got the life people dream about: I am rich, I am famous, I've got a fabulous marriage to an absolutely, spell-bindingly brilliant woman.

James Ellroy

I've been so lucky to work with such great people: people that are such hard workers and have such a respect and appreciation for one another.

Blake Lively

Expect the best, Prepare for the worst.

Muhammad Ali Jinnah

The Royal Family are not like you and me. They live in houses so big that you can walk round all day and never need to meet your spouse. The Queen and Prince Philip have never shared a bedroom in their lives. They don't even have breakfast together.

A. N. Wilson

If you're not in New York, you're camping out.

Thomas E. Dewey

Take this marriage thing seriously - it has to last all the way to the divorce.

Roseanne Barr

One who has imagination without learning has wings without feet.

Joseph Joubert

Never be lucid, never state, if you would be regarded great.

Dylan Thomas

Was it the act of giving birth that made you a mother? Did you lose that label when you relinquished your child? If people were measured by their deeds, on the one hand, I had a woman who had chosen to give me up; on the other, I had a woman who'd sat up with me at night when I was sick as a child, who'd cried with me over boyfriends, who'd clapped fiercely at my law school graduation. Which acts made you more of a mother?Both, I realized. Being a parent wasn't just about bearing a child. It was about bearing witness to its life.

Jodi Picoult

Once you've wrestled, everything else in life is easy.

Dan Gable
