What Wickham had said of the living was fresh in her memory, and as she recalled his very words, it was impossible not to feel that there was gross duplicity on one side or the other

Preparation was a term I was to hear more and more. It had another more sinister meaning. If you were prepared, it meant you were doped.

David Millar

Some people appear to be happy, but they simply don't give the matter much thought. Others make plans: I'm going to have a husband, a home, two children, a house in the country. As long as they're busy doing that, they're like bulls looking for the bullfighter: they react instinctively, they blunder on, with no idea where the target is. They get their car, sometimes they even get a Ferrari, and they think that's the meaning of life, and they never question it. Yet their eyes betray the sadness that even they don't know they carry in their soul. Are you happy?

Paulo Coelho

Heard melodies are sweet, but those unheard are sweeter.

John Keats

Life's managed, not cured.

Phillip C. McGraw

People recognize me, call me Ron, and ask me questions. It's really cool and weird as well.

Rupert Grint

There is so much good in the worst of us, and so much bad in the best of us, that it ill behaves any of us to find fault with the rest of us.

James Truslow Adams

I adore this adventure, I adore working with youth. For me it's a daily challenge, working to help these youths realize their dreams.

Patrick Roy

Frankly, writing poetry for children is plain old fun, and I consider myself blessed to have such a delightful career.

Jack Prelutsky

Never do a wrong thing to make a friend or to keep one.

General Robert E. Lee

Without you the instruments would die.One sits close beside you. Another takes a long kiss.The tambourine begs, Touch my skin so I can be myself.Let me feel you enter each limb bone by bone,that what died last night can be whole today.Why live some soberer way, and feel you ebbing out?I won't do it.Either give me enough wine or leave me alone,now that I know how it isto be with you in constant conversation.

Rumi

Comparison is the death of joy.

Mark Twain

Such a wife as I want... must be young, handsome I lay most stress upon a good shape, sensible a little learning will do, well-bread, chaste, and tender. As to religion, a moderate stock will satisfy me. She must believe in God and hate a saint.

Alexander Hamilton
