Our words are buttressed by our deeds, and our deeds are inspired by our convictions.

Being stuck is a position few of us like. We want something new but cannot let go of the old -- old ideas, beliefs, habits, even thoughts. We are out of contact with our own genius. Sometimes we know we are stuck; sometimes we don't. In both cases we have to DO something.

Stephen Wolfram

Read the news section of the newspaper and there is confusion and uncertainty, a world buffeted by large forces people neither understand nor control. But turn to the sports section and it's all different.

Harry Bridges

'Tis the maddest trick a man can ever play in his whole life, to let his breath sneak out of his body without any more ado, and without so much as a rap o'er the pate, or a kick of the guts; to go out like the snuff of a farthing candle, and die merely of the mulligrubs, or the sullens.

Miguel de Cervantes

I've made some great mistakes in my life, but, you know, they were honest mistakes.

Henry Rollins

Due to the injuries that I will have for the rest of my life, it is physically impossible for me to consider any career in wrestling.

Brian Bosworth

Dig within. Within is the wellspring of Good and it is always ready to bubble up, if you just dig.

Marcus Aurelius

No one wants to die. Even people who wanna go to heaven don't wanna die to get there.

Steve Jobs

Since the presidency of Ronald Reagan, conservatives have succeeded by adhering to a platform that rests firmly on three legs: smaller government, faith and family, and a strong national defense. These three legs do not merely represent a political coalition they are three necessary components of a strong and secure America.

As regards this vice, we read that the peacock is more guilty of it than any other animal. For it is always contemplating the beauty of its tail, which it spreads in the form of a wheel, and by its cries attracts to itself the gaze of the creatures that surround it. And this is the last vice to be conquered.
