The word of man is the most durable of all material.

The pursuit of happiness is the chase of a life time.

Virtue is its own reward, and brings with it the truest and highest pleasure; but if we cultivate it only for pleasure's sake, we are selfish, not religious, and will never gain the pleasure, because we can never have the virtue.

Cardinal J. Newman

There is no success without hardship.

Sophocles

I worked very hard. I felt I could play the game. The only thing that could stop me was myself.

Jim Abbott

I always envisioned myself being a rapper and being in the game and having success, but you never know what it feels like or how you're going to be when you're there.

Wiz Khalifa

Passion should burn hot, or what good is it to anyone?

Val Edward Simone

There are heroes in evil as well as in good.

Francois de La Rochefoucauld

Let me implore the reader to try to believe, if only for a moment, that God, who made these deserving people, may really be right when He thinks that their modest prosperity and the happiness of their children are not enough to make them blessed: that all this must fall from them in the end, and if they have not learned to know Him they will be wretched. And therefore He troubles them, warning them in advance of an insufficiency that one day they will have to discover. The life to themselves and their families stands between them and the recognition of their need; He makes that life less sweet to them.If God were proud He would hardly have us on such terms: but He is not proud, He stoops to conquer, He will have us even though we have shown that we prefer everything else to Him, and come to Him because there is 'nothing better' now to be had.

C.S. Lewis

Many people mistakenly think a new technology cancels out an old one.

Judith Martin

Woman is fine for her own satisfaction alone. No man will admire her the more, no woman will like her the better for it. Neatness and fashion are enough for the former, and a something of shabbiness or impropriety will be most endearing to the latter.

Jane Austen

Life is nothing but a competition to be the criminal rather than the victim.

Bertrand Russell

We had the sky up there, and we used to lay on our backs and look up at them, and discuss whether they was made or just happened.

Mark Twain
