You will write if you will write without thinking of the result in terms of a result, but think of the writing in terms of discovery, which is to say that creation must take place between the pen and the paper, not before in a thought or afterwards in a recasting... It will come if it is there and if you will let it come.

The reading or non-reading a book will never keep down a single petticoat.

Lord (George Gordon) Byron

Our work is before us. It cannot be passed to future legislatures and must not be passed to future generations. May we boldly seize the moment with singular unity. And may we build a Texas of unlimited possibility.

Rick Perry

Sometimes we hold on to our possessions because we fear we might run out - life seems scarce. But when we believe that giving is the way to live, we will produce more in the future - life seems abundant.

John C. Maxwell

And when night, darkens the streets, then wander forth the sons of Belial, flown with insolence and wine.

John Milton

If you made a list of reasons why any couple got married, and another list of the reasons for their divorce, you'd have a hell of a lot of overlapping.

Mignon McLaughlin

Love can sometimes be magic. But magic can sometimes...just be an illusion.

Javan

The question I asked Georges has now become a general one - You, who thought you were superfluous, who thought there was no place for you in society, not only are you not superfluous, you are needed and so those who were beggars become givers.

Abbe Pierre

To be happy, make others happy.

Stephen Richards

If one must fight or create, it is necessary that this be preceded by the broadest possible knowledge.

Karel Capek

I was never jailed. The fact is that I was arrested, but I went into a diversion programme, and by that time I'd already begun working in what was called anger management. It was a painful and awful moment.

David Soul

There's nobody else on the face of this earth that's playing a sport at a highest level... with a transplant. That alone continues to inspire me, because I realize throughout the whole world the struggles that people are going through. I need to inspire them the best way I can.

Alonzo Mourning

The bird of truth would not be able to fly if it weren't for the air of lies we breathe.
