In the light of trust, as it develops slowly over time, you will find that you are a privileged child of the universe, entirely safe, entirely supported, entirely loved. Deepak Chopra
Sexual satisfaction eases the stranglehold of materialism, since status symbols no longer look sexual, but irrelevant. Product lust weakens where emotional and sexual lust intensifies. The price we pay for artificially buoying up this market is our heart's desire. The beauty myth keeps a gap of fantasy between men and women. That gap is made with mirrors; no law of nature supports it. It keeps us spending vast sums of money and looking distractedly around us, but its smoke and reflection... Naomi Wolf
This last chapter .. may have given the impression that somehow man is the ultimate triumph of evolution, that all these millions of years of development have had no purpose other than to put him on earth.

Therefore the Masteracts without doing anythingand teaches without saying anything. Things arise and she lets them come; things disappear and she lets them go. She has but doesn't... Lao Tzu
I, my own damn self, am not a Tea Party supporter. I disagree with them on social liberties, our overseas wars, Obama's birthplace, Sarah Palin, and the conspicuous absence of tea at their rallies. Penn Jillette
Science can teach us, and I think our hearts can teach us, no longer to look around for imaginary supporters, no longer to invent allies in the sky, but rather to look to our own efforts here below to make the world a fit place to live Bertrand Russell
What in me is dark. Illumine, what is low raise and support, That to the height of this great argument. I may assert eternal Providence, And justify the ways of God to men. 1 Paradise Lost. Book i. Line 22. John Milton
As a woman you are better off in life earning your own money. You couldn't prevent your husband from leaving you or taking another wife, but you could have some of your dignity if you didn't have to beg him for financial support. Ayaan Hirsi Ali
for my grief's so great. That no supporter but the huge firm earth. Can hold it up: here I and sorrows sit; Here is my throne, bid kings come bow to it.(Constance, from King John, Act III, scene 1) William Shakespeare
There seemed to be some heavenly support beneath his shoulder blades that lifted his feet from the ground in ecstatic suspension, as if he secretly enjoyed the ability to fly but was walking as a compromise to convention. Zelda Fitzgerald
I mean, imagine for a second Olivero Barretto, some nice Italian kid from down the block in Cranston, Rhode Island. He comes to see Mr. Cavilleri, a wage-earning pastry chef of that city, and says, "I would like to marry your only daughter, Jennifer." What would the old man's first question be? (He would not question Barretto's love, since to know Jenny is to love Jenny; it's a universal truth). No, Mr. Cavilleri would say something like, "Barretto, how are you going to support her? Erich Segal
We can only feel sorry for ourselves when our misfortunes are still supportable. Once this limit is crossed, the only way to bear the unbearable is to laugh at it. Marjane Satrapi
George Eliot quote: "Even when she was speaking, her soul was in prayer reposing on..."
Even when she was speaking, her soul was in prayer reposing on an unseen support. George Eliot
It might sound chauvinistic, but there is a sad reality in rock music: Bands who depend on support from females inevitably crash and burn. Chuck Klosterman
