Whoever I can go out every week and motivate to do better and to try to go after their dreams, I'm up for that.

By seeking and blundering we learn.

Johann von Goethe

In the clashes between ignorance and intelligence, ignorance is generally the aggressor.

Paul Harris

This is night, Diddykins. That's what we call it when it goes all dark like this.

J.K. Rowling

Work like an angel, dress like a demon, live like a ghost, and dream like a human.

Rebecca McKinsey

I think somehow men understand other men's need for respect differently than they understand it for a woman. I'm disappointed to have to say that, but I think it's undeniably true.

Carly Fiorina

Those who restrain their desires, do so because theirs is weak enough to be restrained.

William Blake

Alan Alda

Men are not suffering from the lack of good literature, good art, good theatre, good music, but from that which has made it impossible for these to become manifest.

Henry Miller

Laurell K. Hamilton

But what is ? What is ?The words and do not denote any really existing thing and therefore cannot be defined. Those words only denote a certain stage of understanding of phenomena. I do not know why a certain event occurs; I think that I cannot know it; so I do not try to know it and I talk about . I see a force producing effects beyond the scope of ordinary human agencies; I do not understand why this occurs and I talk of .To a heard of rams, that ram the herdsman dries each evening into a special enclosure to feed, and that becomes twice as fat as the others, must seem to be a genius.

Leo Tolstoy

Vanquished in life, his death By beauty made amends: The passing of his breath Won his defeated ends.

Lionel Johnson
