I wish you would tell me your secret. To get back my youth I would do anything in the world, except take exercise, get up early, or be respectable.

No matter how much experience we may gather in life, we can never in life get the dimension of experience that the imagination gives us. Only the arts and sciences can do that, and of these, only literature gives us the whole sweep and range of human imagination as it sees itself.

Northrop Frye

If we will be quiet and ready enough, we shall find compensation in every disappointment.

Henry David Thoreau

What I possess I would gladly retain. Change amuses the mind, yet scarcely profits.

Johann von Goethe

I should have been smart enough to stay happy. But my ambition ruled my life.

Eva Gabor

Though I am an old horse, and have seen and heard a great deal, I never yet could make out why men are so fond of this sport; they often hurt themselves, often spoil good horses, and tear up the fields, and all for a hare, or a fox, or a stag, that they could get more easily some other way; but we are only horses, and don't know.

Anna Sewell

The truly generous is the truly wise, and he who loves not others, lives unblest.

Henry Home

President Obama's view of a free economy is to send your money to his friends. My vision for a free enterprise economy is to return entrepreneurship and genius and creativity to the American people!

Mitt Romney

If we are on the outside, we assume a conspiracy is the perfect working of a scheme. Silent nameless men with unadorned hearts. A conspiracy is everything that ordinary life is not. It's the inside game, cold, sure, undistracted, forever closed off to us. We are the flawed ones, the innocents, trying to make some rough sense of the daily jostle. Conspirators have a logic and a daring beyond our reach. All conspiracies are the same taut story of men who find coherence in some criminal act.

Don DeLillo

I hate banks. They do nothing positive for anybody except take care of themselves. They're first in with their fees and first out when there's trouble.

Harvey Goldsmith

It's very uncomfortable to hear them used when I don't agree with what's being said. But I recognize that those songs have entered into a bigger life, a life all their own. They belong to the audience. How they're used isn't always something I can control.

Tom Petty

We always know which is the best road to follow, but we follow only the road that we have become accustomed to.

Paulo Coelho

If you have issues with family, friends, and people at work, try and solve these issues head on so you can move on and concentrate on having the life you want. Think about what you can do so that you are happy with yourself - for instance, eating right to feel great and energetic.
