Great Famous Quotes
Peter Hoeg
I feel the same way about solitude as some people feel about the blessing of the church. It's the light of grace for me. I never close my door behind me without the awareness that I am carrying out an act of mercy toward myself.
Susan Polis Schutz
This life is yours. Take the power to choose what you want to do and do it well. Take the power to love what you want in life and love it honestly. Take the power to walk in the forest and be a part of nature. Take the power to control your own life. No one else can do it for you. Take the power to make your life happy.
Oprah Winfrey
If you look at what you have in life, You'll always have more. If you look at what you don't have in life, You'll never have enough.
Anonymous
The best way to succeed in life is to act on the advice we give to others.

Richard Hughes
Do your bit to save humanity from lapsing back into barbarity by reading all the novels you can.
Nikki Giovanni
Nothing is easy to the unwilling.
Indira Gandhi
My grandfather once told me that there are two kinds of people: those who work and those who take the credit. He told me to try to be in the first group; there was less competition there.

Daily Quotes
Kahlil Gibran
The reality of the other person lies not in what he reveals to you but in what he cannot reveal to you. Therefore, if you would understand him, listen not to what he says but rather to what he does not say.
Albert P. Ryder
Have you ever seen an inchworm crawl up a leaf or a twig, and then, clinging to the very end, revolve in the air, feeling for something, to reach something That's like me. I am trying to find something out there beyond the place on which I have footing.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Man is fond of counting his troubles, but he does not count his joys. If he counted them up as he ought to, he would see that every lot has enough happiness provided for it.
Charles W. Eliot
Books are the quietest and most constant of friends they are the most accessible and wisest of counsellors, and the most patient of teachers.
Chinese Proverb
Climb mountains to see lowlands.
Mark Twain
There is something fascinating about science. One gets such wholesale returns of conjecture out of such a trifling investment of fact.
Jack Handey Deep Thoughts
To me, clowns aren't funny. In fact, they're kinda scary. I've wondered where this started, and I think it goes back to the time I went to the circus and a clown killed my dad.
Alexander Woollcott
I have no need of your God-damned sympathy. I only wish to be entertained by some of your grosser reminiscences.
Charlie Kaufman, Adaptation
We are what we love, not what loves us.
Kahlil Gibran
A poet is a bird of unearthly excellence, who escapes from his celestial realm arrives in this world warbling. If we do not cherish him, he spreads his wings and flies back into his homeland.
