If you're going through friendship issues, I would say, first of all take a step back. How important is the friendship to you? Sometimes, if someone's not being a good friend to you and isn't treating you the way you should be treated, then you kind of have to move on sometimes.

We can rest contentedly in our sins and in our stupidities, and anyone who has watched gluttons shoveling down the most exquisite foods as if they did not know what they were eating will admit that we can ignore even pleasure. But pain insists upon being attended to. God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks in our consciences, but shouts in our pains. It is his megaphone to rouse a deaf world.

C.S. Lewis

I don't act, I don't direct, I don't design.

Tom Stoppard

It is indeed strange, given the heavy emphasis placed by chroniclers on Churchill's sheer magnitude of personality, that the ingredient of pure ambition should be so much ignored or even disallowed.

Christopher Hitchens

I shall love my kind of love anyway, doggedly, for I must certainly do the best I can with my own nature and if my nature is to love too well or from afar or to be grateful for crumbs...well, so be it.

Carol Emshwiller

When we have begun to take charge of our lives, to own ourselves, there is no longer any need to ask permission of someone.

George O'Neil

The best foundation for relationships to grow, flourish, and succeed is a deep-rooted friendship.

Jonathan Anthony Burkett

Before my accidents, there were ten thousands things I could do. I could spend the rest of my life dwelling on the things that I had lost, but instead I chose to focus on the nine thousand I still had left.

W. Mitchell

To be positive: to be mistaken at the top of one's voice.

Ambrose Bierce

Time is the scarcest resource of the manager; If it is not managed, nothing else can be managed

Peter Drucker

Until we have a better relationship between private performance and the public truth, as was demonstrated with Watergate, we as the public are absolutely right to remain suspicious, contemptuous even, of the secrecy and the misinformation which is the digest of our news.

John le Carre

Obesity is a condition which proves that the Lord does not help those who help themselves and help themselves and help themselves.

I can only hope to be 10 percent of the mom mine was to me. She encouraged me to be confident and enjoy life. That's what I want for my son.
