Quotes:

There are all sorts of topics and themes that just recur time and time again, which either means people have less imagination or that people never get bored of them... or both!
View quotes by Buck Henry

I'll not listen to reason. Reason always means what someone else has got to say.
View quotes by Elizabeth Gaskell

Love means never having to say you're sorry. [Love Story]
View quotes by Erich Segal

Failure doesn't mean you are a failure... it just means you haven't succeeded yet.
View quotes by Robert Schuller

We are weighed down, every moment, by the conception and the sensation of Time. And there are but two means of escaping and forgetting this nightmare: pleasure and work. Pleasure consumes us. Work strengthens us. Let us choose.
View quotes by Charles Baudelaire

Love is the true means by which the world is enjoyed: our love to others, and others love to us.
View quotes by Thomas Traherne

Being a full time coach doesn't mean that we practice more than other teams. In fact we have strict regulations about the length of our practices and playing season. The academic schedule here means that I rarely have a full team at any one practice!
View quotes by Tony Brown

The intense build-up to the World Cup means more time away from my family. That is something I'd like to avoid. I have found during my two years as coach that the position is more than a job. That has meant I have spent long periods away from my family. [on resigning as Wales coach]
View quotes by Mike Ruddock

Education is not solely about earning a great living. It means living a great life.
View quotes by Brad Henry

'Charm' - which means the power to effect work without employing brute force - is indispensable to women. Charm is a woman's strength just as strength is a man's charm.
View quotes by Havelock Ellis

I've hear the diva rumours, they crack me up. I'm such a plain Jane. And my roots are so instilled in me that it's not that weird to go home. I think it depends on the kind of person you are; whether you're easily drawn to the superficial things, but that's not who I am. People driven by the money and fame, I've seen how it makes them and that life means nothing to me. [Elle UK March 2004]
View quotes by Christina Aguilera

As I was being born my father claims that he was playing his fiddle/violin to soothe my mother and when my head came out he says that I looked right into his eyes and that my eyes were the color of electric turquoise and in Persian the word for turquoise is Fairuza, it also means Sacred or Precious one....don't ask me...
View quotes by Fairuza Balk

You are the lens in the beam. You can only receive, give, and possess the light as the lens does.

If you seek yourself, you rob the lens of its transparency. You will know life and be acknowledged by it according to your degree of transparency, your capacity, that is, to vanish as an end, and remain purely as a means.
View quotes by Dag Hammarskjold

'It is by no means enough that an officer be capable...He should be a gentleman of liberal education, refined, manners, punctilious courtesy, and the nicest sense of personal honor... No meritorious act of a subordinate should escape his attention, even if the reward be only one word of approval. Conversely, he should not be blind to a single fault in any subordinate.'
View quotes by John Paul Jones

Art is only a means to life, to the life more abundant. It is not in itself the life more abundant. It merely points the way, something which is overlooked not only by the public, but very often by the artist himself. In becoming an end it defeats itself
View quotes by Henry Miller

Clarity of mind means clarity of passion, too; this is why a great and clear mind loves ardently and sees distinctly what it loves.
View quotes by Blaise Pascal

A mathematical theory is not to be considered complete until you have made it so clear that you can explain it to the first man whom you meet on the street. [hmm so that means no mathematical theory is complete then!]
View quotes by David Hilbert

The relationship between commitment and doubt is by no means an antagonistic one. Commitment is healthiest when it's not without doubt but in spite of doubt.
View quotes by Rollo May

A good cause can become bad if we fight for it with means that are indiscriminately murderous. A bad cause can become good if enough people fight for it in a spirit of comradeship and self-sacrifice. In the end it is how you fight, as much as why you fight, that makes your cause good or bad.
View quotes by Freeman Dyson

Science is nothing more than a method of inquiry. The method says an assertion is valid — and merits universal acceptance — only if it can be independently verified. The impersonal rigor of the method means it is utterly apolitical. A truth in science is verifiable whether you are black or white, male or female, old or young. It's verifiable whether you like the results of a study, or you don't
