It is a woman's business to get married as soon as possible, and a man's to keep unmarried as long as possible

Peeing is like a good book in that it is very, very hard to stop once you start.

John Green

Nothing like being visible, publishing one's work, and speaking openly about one's life, to disabuse the world of the illusion of one's perfection and purity.

Joyce Maynard

I'm just one woman away, my mother, from being the same as Mike Tyson. I would've ended up like him if my mama had not been so tough and strong. A lot of people, including Mike, don't know I came from the ghetto. They think I'm too nice and proper. But that's the way my mama raised me - to look people in the eye and respect them.

Evander Holyfield

No, I like to wear as least amount of makeup as I can during my everyday life because I'm just all about keeping my skin healthy and hydrated and I love to laugh and have a great time and smile - that's when I feel the most pretty so I just want to make sure that I stay happy.

Lily Collins

If you can't do the little things right, you will never do the big things right.

William H. McRaven

Nothing like a nighttime stroll to give you ideas.

J.K. Rowling

The things a man has to have are hope and confidence in himself against odds, and sometimes he needs somebody, his pal or his mother or his wife or God, to give him that confidence. He's got to have some inner standards worth fighting for or there won't be any way to bring him into conflict. And he must be ready to choose death before dishonor without making too much song and dance about it. That's all there is to it.

Clark Gable

Out of love and hatred, out of earnings and borrowings and leadings and losses; out of sickness and pain; out of wooing and worshipping; out of traveling and voting and watching and caring; out of disgrace and contempt, comes our tuition in the serene and beautiful laws.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Feminism is a word that I identify with. The term has become synonymous with vitriolic man-hating but it needs to come back to a place where both men and women can embrace it. It is particularly important for women in developing countries.

Annie Lennox

We often pretend to fear what we really despise, and more often despise what we really fear.

Charles Caleb Colton

If a bullet should enter my brain, let that bullet destroy every closet door.

Harvey Milk

Science... never solves a problem without creating ten more.

George Bernard Shaw
