I'm very independent. ~Kate Bosworth
#quotes #kate-bosworth #independence

I also think we need to maintain distinctions - the doctrine of creation is different from a scientific cosmology, and we should resist the temptation, which sometimes scientists give in to, to try to assimilate the concepts of theology to the concepts of science. ~John Polkinghorne

In a moment, we hope to see the pole vault over the satellite. ~David Coleman

Girls who wear certain kind of dresses, who show certain areas of the body, are not going to like my clothes. You can't please everyone. ~Prabal Gurung

No one can advise or help you; no one. There is only one thing you should do. Go into yourself. Search for the reason that bids you write, find out wether it spreading out its root in the deepest places of your heart. Delve into yourself for a deep answer ~Rainer Maria Rilke
#quotes #rainer-maria-rilke #writing #heart

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

Men are like the stars; some generate their own light while others reflect the brilliance they receive. ~Jose Marti
#quotes #jose-marti #light

I don't mean to imply that we are in imminent danger of being wiped off the face of the earth; at least, not on account of global warming. But climate change does confront us with profound new realities. We face these new realities as a nation, as members of the world community, as consumers, as producers, and as investors. And unless we do a better job of adjusting to these new realities, we will pay a heavy price. We may not suffer the fate of the dinosaurs. But there will be a toll on our environment and on our economy, and the toll will rise higher with each new generation. ~Eileen Claussen

So, tomorrow, I'm leaving. And I'm not going to let that happen again with anyone else. I'm going to be who I really am. I'm going to figure out what this is. ~Stephen Chbosky
#quotes #stephen-chbosky

You know, I think, I think the Palestinians are trying to get away without negotiating. They're trying to get a state to continue the conflict with Israel rather than to end it. They're trying to basically detour around peace negotiations by going to the U.N. and have the automatic majority in the U.N. General Assembly give them, give them a state. ~Benjamin Netanyahu
#quotes #benjamin-netanyahu #israel

Nakata is empty inside. Do you know what it means to be completely empty? Being empty is like a vacant house. An unlocked, vacant house. Anybody can come in, anytime they want. That is what scares me the most. ~Haruki Murakami
#quotes #haruki-murakami #emptiness

Whenever you can, act as a liberator. Freedom, dignity, wealth; these three together constitute the greatest happiness of humanity. If you bequeath all three to your people, their love for you will never die. ~Cyrus the Great

Democracy is a form of government that substitutes election by the incompetent many for appointment by the corrupt few. ~George Bernard Shaw

My efforts in Congress are guided by the belief that environmental preservation and restoration are a critical part of the legacy we leave to future generations. ~Sue Kelly

There would be no idling in a co-operative workshop. Each workman, being an employer, has a spur to his own industry, and has a pecuniary reason for being watchful of the industry of his fellow workmen. ~Leland Stanford
#quotes #leland-stanford #industry

I must go on living. And, though it may be childish of me, I can't go on in simple compliance. From now on I must struggle with the world. I thought that Mother might well be the last of those who can end their lives beautifully and sadly, struggling with no one, neither hating nor betraying anyone. In the world to come there will be no room for such people. The dying are beautiful, but to live, to survive; those things somehow seem hideous and contaminated with blood. ~Osamu Dazai

Any fiction is bound to be transposed autobiography. ~Elizabeth Bowen
