I feel within me a peace above all earthly dignities, a still and quiet conscience.
William ShakespeareRead
A year from now, I could go away, and people might say, 'Gosh, what ever happened to that girl who never wore pants?' But how wonderfully memorable 30 years from now, when they say, 'Do you remember Gaga and her bubbles?' Because, for a minute, everybody in that room will forget every sad, painful thing in their lives, and they'll just live in my bubble world.
Lady GagaRead
Over the last several days, we have heard from members of Congress who want their voices to be heard. I absolutely agree.
Barack ObamaRead
But it wasn't just that he was the most intelligent member in the family. He was also the nicest, in lots of ways. He never got mad at anybody. People with red hair are supposed to get mad very easily, but Allie never did, and he had very red hair.
J. D. SalingerRead
A horse, a horse, my kingdom for a horse!
William ShakespeareRead
But, soft! what light through yonder window breaks? It is the east, and Juliet is the sun.
William ShakespeareRead
There are more things in Heaven and Earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy.
William ShakespeareRead
The scientific theorist is not to be envied. For Nature, or more precisely experiment, is an exorable and not very friendly judge of his work. It never says "yes" to a theory. In the most favorable cases it says "Maybe," and in the great majority of cases simply "No." If an experiment agrees with a theory it means for the latter "Maybe," and if it does not agree it means "No." Probably every theory will some day experience its "No" - most theories, soon after conception.
Albert EinsteinRead
It strikes me as gruesome and comical that in our culture we have an expectation that man can always solve his problems ... This is so untrue that it makes me want to cry-or laugh.
Kurt VonnegutRead
Probably the only place where a man can feel really secure is in a maximum security prison, except for the imminent threat of release.
Germaine GreerRead
Conscription is an impediment to achieving the forces Australia needs. It is an alibi for failing to give proper conditions to regular soldiers. We will abolish conscription forthwith. By abolishing it, Australia will achieve a better army, a better-paid army - and a better, united society.
Gough WhitlamRead
Hostility towards China distorted Australia's international affairs for 20 years until 1972, but reconciliation with China 30 years ago had produced a quarter century of constructive bipartisan relations with our region and the world, unmatched in Australian history.
Gough WhitlamRead
Noncooks think it's silly to invest two hours' work in two minutes' enjoyment; but if cooking is evanescent, so is the ballet.
Julia ChildRead
And I am sure that I never read any memorable news in a newspaper. If we read of one man robbed, or murdered, or killed by accident, or one house burned, or one vessel wrecked, or one steamboat blown up, or one cow run over on the Western Railroad, or one mad dog killed, or one lot of grasshoppers in the winter, - we need never read of another. One is enough. If you are acquainted with the principle, what do you care for a myriad instances and applications?
Henry David ThoreauRead
Segregation was wrong when it was forced by white people, and I believe it is still wrong when it is requested by black people.
Coretta Scott KingRead
I think all Americans believe in human rights. And health is an often overlooked aspect of basic human rights. And it's one that's easily corrected. The reason I say that is that many of the diseases that we treat around the world, I knew when I was a child. My mother was a registered nurse. And they no longer exist in our country.
Jimmy CarterRead
Falling out of love is very enlightening. For a short while you see the world with new eyes.
Iris MurdochRead
I feel no need for any other faith than my faith in human beings.
Pearl S. BuckRead
There are no days in life so memorable as those which vibrate to some stroke of the imagination.
Ralph Waldo EmersonRead
Listening, not imitation, may be the sincerest form of flattery.
Joyce BrothersRead
I was taught that the human brain was the crowning glory of evolution so far, but I think it's a very poor scheme for survival.
Kurt VonnegutRead
