The world is very different now. For man holds in his mortal hands the power to abolish all forms of human poverty, and all forms of human life.

Deep down within the heart there is a stillness which is healing, a trust in the universal laws which is unwavering, and a strength which is rock-like. But because it is so deep we need both patience and perseverance when digging for it.

Paul Brunton

For children preserve the fame of a man after his death.

Aeschylus

Kinkade's paintings are worthless schmaltz, and the lamestream media that love him are wrong. However, I'd love to see a museum mount a small show of Kinkade's work. I would like the art world and the wider world to argue about him in public, out in the open.

Rudyard Kipling

Sometimes you think you've found love, when it's really just one of those objects that are shiny in a certain light--a trophy, say, or a ring, or a diamond, even. Glass shards, maybe. You've got to be careful, you do. The shine can blind you. The edges can cut you in way you never imagined. It is up to you to allow that or not.

Deb Caletti

Those who do not know how to live must make a merit of dying

George Bernard Shaw

It is not whether your words or actions are tough or gentle; it is the spirit behind your actions and words that announces your inner state.

Ching Ning Chu

Sentiment is intellectualized emotion; emotion precipitated, as it were, in pretty crystals by the fancy.
