You're never fully dressed without a smile.

Letting go of your ego opens the door to taking a new and creative course of action.

Suzanne Mayo Frindt

And above all, we must feel and act as if an endless continuation of our earthly life awaited us after death; and if it be that nothingness is the fate that awaits us we must not, in the words of Obermann, so act that it shall be a just fate.

Miguel de Unamuno

Consider the subtleness of the sea; how its most dreaded creatures glide under water, unapparent for the most part, and treacherously hidden beneath the loveliest tints of azure..... Consider all this; and then turn to this green, gentle , and most docile earth; consider them both, the sea and the land; and do you not find a strange analogy to something in yourself?

Herman Melville

Well I talk a little about that, but I don't admit that from the beginning I knew we were not meant to be together.

Jodi Picoult

If I have done any deed worthy of remembrance, that deed will be my monument. If not, no monument can preserve my memory.

Agesilaus II

Those who know the rules of true wisdom are baser than those who love them. Those who love them are baser than those who follow them.

Leo Tolstoy

Life must not cease. That comes before everything. It is silly to say you do not care. You do care. It is that care that will prompt your imagination; inflame your desires; make your will irresistible; and create out of nothing.

George Bernard Shaw

Every Communist must grasp the truth: Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun.

Mao Zedong

The truth is that we can learn to condition our minds, bodies, and emotions to link pain or pleasure to whatever we choose. By changing what we link pain and pleasure to, we will instantly change our behaviors.

Anthony Robbins

The very essence of literature is the war between emotion and intellect, between life and death. When literature becomes too intellectual - when it begins to ignore the passions, the emotions - it becomes sterile, silly, and actually without substance.

Isaac Bashevis Singer

O public road, I say back I am not afraid to leave you, yet I love you, you express me better than I can express myself.

Walt Whitman

When you fear a foe, fear crushes your strength; and this weakness gives strength to your opponents.

William Shakespeare
