Elizabeth Gaskell quote: "But I was right. I think that must be an hereditary quality,..."
But I was right. I think that must be an hereditary quality, for my father says he is scarcely ever wrong. Elizabeth Gaskell
I can never get over when you're on the beach how beautiful the sand looks and the water washes it away and straightens it up and the trees and the grass all look great. I think having land and not ruining it is the most beautiful art that anybody could ever want to own. Andy Warhol
I did not think I should be ever loved: do you indeed Love me so much as now you say you do? Ask of the sea-bird if it loves the sea, Ask of the roses if they love the rain, Ask of the little lark, that will not sing Till day break, if it loves to see the day: And yet, these are but empty images, Mere shadows of my love, which is a fire So great that all the waters of the main Can not avail to quench it. Oscar Wilde
You think the end justifies the means, however vile. I tell you: the end is the means by which you achieve it. Today's step is tomorrow's life. Great ends cannot be attained by base means. You've proved that in all your social upheavals. The meanness and inhumanity of the means make you mean and inhuman and make the end unattainable. Wilhelm Reich

Really, I think one's art goes only as far and as deep as your love goes Andrew Wyeth
It's astonishing the amount of time that certain straight people devote to gay sex - trying to determine what goes where and how often. They can't imagine any system outside their own, and seem obsessed with the idea of roles, both in bed and out of it. Who calls whom a bitch? Who cries harder when the cat dies? Which one spends the most time in the bathroom? I guess they think that it's that cut-and-dried, though of course it's not. David Sedaris
Michael J. Fox quote: "I think I benefited from being equal parts ambitious and..."
I think I benefited from being equal parts ambitious and curious. And of the two, curiosity has served me best. Michael J. Fox
I think Haiti is a place that suffers so much from neglect that people only want to hear about it when its at its extremes and thats what they end up knowing about it. Edwidge Danticat
George MacDonald quote: "You would not think any duty small,If you yourself were great."
You would not think any duty small,If you yourself were great. George MacDonald
maturity meant thinking about risk long before you pondered the reward, and that success and happiness in life were as much about avoiding mistakes as making your mark into the world. Nicholas Sparks
When I was at school my jography told me th' earth was shaped like a orange an' I found out before I was ten that th' whole orange doesn't belong to nobody. No one owns more than his bit of a quarter an' there's times it seems there's not enow quarters to go around. But don't you-none o' you- think as you own th' whole orange or you'll find out you're mistaken, an' you won't find it without hard knocks. What children learns from children, is that there's no sense grabbin' at th' whole... Frances Hodgson Burnett
Nicole Kidman quote: "It's strange, but sad. I think I'll always be sad."
It's strange, but sad. I think I'll always be sad. Nicole Kidman
The attendant thinks it is some form of religious mania which has seized him. If so, we must look for squalls, for a strong man with homicidal and religious mania at once might be dangerous. The combination is a dreadful one. Bram Stoker
To live content with small means; to seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion; to be worthy, not respectable, and wealthy, not, rich; to listen to stars and birds, babes and sages, with open heart; to study hard; to think quietly, act frankly, talk gently, await occasions, hurry never; in a word, to let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious, grow up through the common William Ellery Channing
Well,' replied Tony, 'I think [Christ's] line would be the same as it always has been - that [sex without marriage] is understandable and forgivable, but wrong to the extent that it's less than the best. Richard Adams
