You know who is against democracy in the Middle East? The husbands. They got used to their way of life. Now, the traditional way of life must change. Everybody must change. If you don't give equal rights to women, you can't progress. ~Shimon Peres
#quotes #shimon-peres
Right, and the definition of basic stupidity is to keep doing the same thing over and over again while expecting a different result. I am not stupid. I didn't say to keep doing it. Move forward with purpose. Examine what went wrong and correct that one mistake. ~Sherrilyn Kenyon

I only discovered the "Harry Potter" series in my tenth standard. I dived right into it, often reading non-stop through the day and night. It was the morning after one such readathon when I was to appear for a chemistry exam. Spending my night with the third edition of "Harry Potter" didn't help much, and I fared poorly. ~Sonam Kapoor

I keep my house tidy, because then I can think clearly. I feel the same about myself. Presenting yourself well is a working-class thing; my dad was a printer, but he wore a tie most days. The ungroomed look belongs more to the middle classes. ~Gary Kemp

It was the Almighty who decreed that men and women must cover their nakedness by wearing proper and modest clothing. No amount of rationalizing can change God's laws. No amount of fashion designing can turn immodesty into virtue, and no amount of popularity can change sin into righteousness. ~Mark E. Petersen

I have a folder of scraps and pieces of paper with stuff, ideas for songs from the last 25 years; just little things, maybe early songs that I finished, but didn't think they were good enough. ~Lucinda Williams

Science is not about what is true or what might be true, science is about what people with originally diverse viewpoints can be forced to believe by the weight of public evidence. ~Lee Smolin

I love emotion. I love being in love. And showing that on screen. I think it's wonderful. ~Dennis Haysbert
#quotes #dennis-haysbert #emotions #love #entertainment
She didn't want to think about how wrong this was or how foolish it was to give herself to a known seducer. Because tonight Oliver wasn't that man. Not to her. He was the boy who'd cried over his dead mother, the young man who'd lost himself in drink and women to forget the past, the marquess who'd vowed not to marry for money. He was the man to be her lover. ~Sabrina Jeffries
#quotes #sabrina-jeffries #love
I'm happy that I was able to experience a normal life besides show business, because it gives you something to draw from. ~Ashley Tisdale
#quotes #ashley-tisdale #entertainment
Burning in effigy. Kissing the picture of one's beloved, it aims at nothing at all; we just behave this way and then we feel satisfied. ~Ludwig Wittgenstein
#quotes #ludwig-wittgenstein
Conservatives brayed that government should stay out of the private sector; liberals bleated for nationalizing the banks. ~Steven Rattner
