All the emotions have something in common. People are quite aware of the sorrow there always is in lust, but they are not so aware of the lust there is in sorrow. Graham Greene
Most people would never admit it, but they'd been bitching since they were born. As soon as their head popped out into that bright delivery-room light, nothing had been right. Nothing had been as comfortable or felt so good. Just the effort it took to keep your stupid physical body alive, just finding food and cooking it and dishwashing, the keeping warm and bathing and sleeping, the walking and bowel movements and ingrown hairs, it was all getting to be too much work. Chuck Palahniuk
No drug, not even alcohol, causes the fundamental ills of society. If we're looking for the source of our troubles, we shouldn't test people for drugs, we should test them for stupidity, ignorance, greed and love of power. P. J. O'Rourke
E. W. Howe quote: "When people hear good music, it makes them homesick for..."

With regard to matters requiring thought: the less people know and understand about them, the more positively they attempt to argue concerning them. Galileo Galilei
Most people...are like a falling leaf that drifts and turns in the air, flutters, and falls to the ground. But a few others are like stars which travel one defined path: no wind reaches them, they have within themselves their guide and path. Herman Hesse
You may be at a crossroads in your life. You may have issues to deal with; people you need to forgive. You can go one of the two ways. You can ignore what you now know to be true and keep burying that bitterness in your life, pushing it deeper and allowing it to poison and contaminate you and those around you. Or you can make a much better choice by getting it out in the open and asking God to help you to totally forgive and let it all go. Joel Osteen
Joseph Stalin quote: "Ideas are far more powerful than guns. We don't let our people..."
Ideas are far more powerful than guns. We don't let our people have guns. Why should we let them have ideas? Joseph Stalin
The people say that the two seemed to be removed from human experience; that they had gone through pain and had come out on the other side. John Steinbeck
Do the one thing you think you cannot do. Fail at it. Try again. Do better the second time. The only people who never tumble are those who never mount the high wire. Oprah Winfrey
Margaret Atwood quote: "But some people can't tell where it hurts. They can't calm..."
But some people can't tell where it hurts. They can't calm down. They can't ever stop howling. Margaret Atwood
Steven Wright quote: "Do the people in Australia call the rest of the world 'Up Over'?"

Kurt Vonnegut quote: "There is love enough in this world for everybody, if people..."
There is love enough in this world for everybody, if people will just look. Kurt Vonnegut
There are people who put their dreams in a little box and say, 'Yes, I’ve got dreams, of course I’ve got dreams.' Then they put the box away and bring it out once in awhile to look in it, and yep, they’re still there. Erma Bombeck
Each person shines with his or her own light. No two flames are alike. There are big flames and little flames, flames of every color. Some people’s flames are so still they don’t even flicker in the wind, while others have wild flames that fill the air with sparks. Some foolish flames neither burn nor shed light, but others blaze with life so fiercely that you can’t look at them without blinking, and if you approach you shine in the fire. Eduardo Galeano
