Anthony Burgess quote: "It had been a wonderful evening and what I needed now, to give..."
It had been a wonderful evening and what I needed now, to give it the perfect ending, was a little of the Ludwig Van. Anthony Burgess
There is nothing in your budget for joy. No books, no flowers, no music, not even a cold beer. And there is nothing in your budget to give away to someone else. We don’t help people who don’t have better values than you do. Robert Fulghum
The sequoias belong to the silences of the milleniums. Many of them have seen a hundred human generations rise, give off their little clamors and perish. They seem indeed to be forms of immortality standing here amoing the transitory shapes of time. Edwin Markham
What is it about fire that's so lovely? No matter what age we are, what draws us to it?...The thing man wanted to invent, but never did...If you let it go on, it'd burn our lifetimes out. What is fire? It is a mystery. Scientists give us gobbledygook about friction and molecules. But they don't really know. Its real beauty is that it destroys responsibility and consequences. Ray Bradbury
Clare Boothe Luce quote: "But if God had wanted us to think with just our wombs, why did..."
But if God had wanted us to think with just our wombs, why did He give us a brain? Clare Boothe Luce
No," he repeated, and this time the word tolled in another voice, a king's voice... whose grief was not for what he did not have, but for what he could not give. Peter S. Beagle
Steven Wright quote: "99% of lawyers give the rest a bad name."
99% of lawyers give the rest a bad name. Steven Wright
Reasons always came with a purpose, to give the appearance of a struggle between principle and desire. Principle had power only until you found what you had to have. Tobias Wolff

George Washington Carver quote: "Anything will give up it's secrets if you love it enough."
Anything will give up it's secrets if you love it enough. George Washington Carver
If you commit perjury I don't care. Don't give a shit. I don't think you should because you grade murder. You have murder One. Murder Two. You realize that there can be a difference in the level of murder. So there must be a difference in the level of perjury. Perjury One is when you're saying there's no Holocaust when, you know, 10 million people have died in it, and Perjury Nine, is when you said you shagged someone and you didn't. Eddie Izzard
To discover the rules of society that are best suited to nations, there would need to exist a superior intelligence, who could understand the passions of men without feeling any of them, who had no affinity with our nature but knew it to the full, whose happiness was independent of ours, but who would nevertheless make our happiness his concern, who would be content to wait in the fullness of time for a distant glory, and to labour in one age to enjoy the fruits in another. Gods would be... Jean-Jacques Rousseau
Daisaku Ikeda quote: "You must not for one instant give up the effort to build new..."
You must not for one instant give up the effort to build new lives for yourselves. Daisaku Ikeda
That perhaps is your task--to find the relation between things that seem incompatible yet have a mysterious affinity, to absorb every experience that comes your way fearlessly and saturate it completely so that your poem is a whole, not a fragment; to re-think human life into poetry and so give us tragedy again and comedy by means of characters not spun out at length in the novelist's way, but condensed and synthesized in the poet's way--that is what we look to you to do now. Virginia Woolf
Arnold Schwarzenegger quote: "Your clothes. Give them to me. Now."
Your clothes. Give them to me. Now. Arnold Schwarzenegger
