So for a year I spent all my time hiding from Jack Charlton in the car park practising my skills.

Some people go to priests others to poetry I to my friends.

Virginia Woolf

I have a prejudice against people who print things in a foreign language and add no translation. When I am the reader, and the other considers me able to do the translating myself, he pays me the quite a nice compliment but if he would do the translating for me I would try to get along without the compliment. (A Tramp Abroad,1880)

Mark Twain

You can make the dream come true if you wake up and work.

Source Unknown

Very little is needed to make a happy life; it is all within yourself, in your way of thinking.

Marcus Aurelius

I love coming home to Melbourne. The first thing I do is have a coffee. It's just so much better here than anywhere else. It's better than in Italy and I travel a lot. I crave it.

Curtis Stone

Those who expect to be both ignorant and free, expect what never was and never will be.

Thomas Jefferson

With disadvantages enough to bring him to humility, a Scotsman is one of the proudest things alive.

Oliver Goldsmith

I sometimes wander whether all pleasures are not substitutes for joy.

C.S. Lewis

There is an unlimited amount of power to be found in simplicity. Keep your intent and action simple and the doors of success, happiness, and abundance will fly open for you.

Steve Maraboli

Our firmest convictions are apt to be the most suspect, they mark our limitations and our bounds. Life is a petty thing unless it is moved by the indomitable urge to extend its boundaries.

Jos

Was man wünscht, das glaubt auch jeder.

Demosthenes

My mum's parents were from Ireland, my dad's mum was American-Irish.
