Sylvia PlathRead
You can't give up something you really believe in for financial reasons. If you die by the roadside - so be it. But at least you know you've tried. Ten minutes in the music scene was the equal of one hundred years outside of it.
Robert PlantRead
Halloween. Sly does it. Tiptoe catspaws. Slide and creep. But why? What for? How? Who? When! Where did it all begin? 'You don't know, do you?' asks Carapace Clavicle Moundshroud climbing out under the pile of leaves under the Halloween Tree. 'You don't really know!'
Ray BradburyRead
I don't know how your theology works, but if Jesus has a choice between stained glass windows and feeding starving kids in Haiti, I have a feeling he'd choose the starving kids in Haiti.
Tony CampoloRead
I don't know what makes someone hip. The goal is artist achievement and the best work we can do with no limitation.
Rick RubinRead
We come into the world whole, all of us, but we don't know that, don't know that life will be taking large chunks out of us, forever.
Mona SimpsonRead
Feminist humor raises consciousness. And the reason it's funny is because it stands something on its head. Goodness knows you've got to have a sense of humor if you do feminism full-time, I tell you.
Eleanor SmealRead
It AIN'T so much the things we don't know that get us into trouble. It's the things we know that just ain't so.
Josh BillingsRead
From a management standpoint, it is very important to know how to unleash people's inborn creativity. My concept is that anybody has creative ability, but very few people know how to use it.
Akio MoritaRead
You know, comments about style always seem strange to me - 'why do you work in this style, or in that style' - as if you had a choice in the matter... What you're doing is trying to stay alive and continue and not die.
Philip GustonRead
I think finals are there to be won, you know the feeling of losing a final is really bad. I prefer to lose a semi-final, quarter-final because I know I will forget... But the feeling of losing a final stays here forever. Even if you win two, three, four, five it stays. You know, I’m too scared to lose, so I give everything to win.
Didier DrogbaRead
I believe in an individual soul which travels through eternity. This life is far from all there is--in fact, it is a minute part, simply an antechamber, a deciding place where we choose the light from the dark, where we come to know what we truly value.
Anne PerryRead
White folks hear the blues come out, but they don't know how it got there.
Son HouseRead
In this mob of I's inside, which one is me? Hear me out. I know I'm wandering, but don't start putting a lid on this racket. No telling what I'll do then. Every moment I'm thrown by your story. One moment it's happy, and I'm singing. One moment it's sad, and I'm weeping. It turns bitter, and I pull away. But then you spill a little grace, and just like that, I'm all light. It's not so bad, this arrangement, actually.
RumiRead
How can I know anything about the past or the future, when the light of the Beloved shines only Now.
RumiRead
Lightning, your presence from ground to sky, no one knows what becomes of me, when you take me so quickly.
RumiRead
The most important thing is practice in daily life; then you can _x000D_ know gradually the true value of religion. Doctrine is not meant for _x000D_ mere knowledge, but for the improvement of our minds. In order to do _x000D_ that, it must be part of our life. If you put religious doctrine in _x000D_ a building and when you leave the building depart from the practices, _x000D_ you cannot gain its value.
Dalai LamaRead
Nature is what we know. We do not know the gods of religions. And nature is not kind, or merciful, or loving. If God made me - the fabled God of the three qualities of which I spoke: mercy, kindness, love - He also made the fish I catch and eat. And where do His mercy, kindness, and love for that fish come in? No; nature made us - nature did it all - not the gods of the religions.
Thomas A. EdisonRead
We love we know not what, and therefore everything allures us.
Thomas TraherneRead
The hour of death waits for no order. Death does not even come from the front. It is ever pressing on from behind. All men know of death, but they do not expect it of a sudden, and it comes upon them unawares. So, though the dry flats extend far out, soon the tide comes and floods the beach.
Yoshida KenkoRead
