Two wrongs don't make a right. ~English Proverb

Nothing is more certain of destroying any good feeling that may be cherished towards us than to show distrust. To be suspected as an enemy is often enough to make a man become so; the whole matter is over, there is no farther use of guarding against it. On the contrary, confidence leads us naturally to act kindly, we are affected by the good opinion which others entertain of us, and we are not easily induced to lose it. ~Marie de Rabutin Chantal

Don't be sweet, lest you be eaten up; don't be bitter, lest you be spewed out. ~Jewish Proverb

I'm loath to use my personal life to promote what I do, but at the same time, I don't like a journalist going away with no more than you could get off Wikipedia, where most of it's invented anyway. ~Johnny Vegas

It's hard to be a good doctor if you don't think about the social circumstances of who you're treating. There are many Tory doctors, but I think it's difficult to be a doctor and a genuine right winger. ~Robert Winston

I think that what went wrong with religion is the same thing that went wrong with politics. Is that it became too money based and too controlling. It is just a weakness that we human beings have for control, we want one thing and then we want more and then we want more. ~Dave Davies

I don't believe in the clash of cultures. The culture is one. The culture is a ring off the same chain. Picasso was very much influenced by the African arts, and he influenced a whole other generation of artists. So everything influences everything. ~Marjane Satrapi

If a writer doesn't generate hostility, he is dead. ~V. S. Naipaul

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

Remember that children, marriages, and flower gardens reflect the kind of care they get. ~H. Jackson Brown Jr.

All artists are anarchists in some way; some more extreme than others, but it is something that I think artists are supposed to do. We are supposed to present a different angle on everything, and I certainly think it is as much as poetry, in my opinion. ~Robert Zemeckis

"Why do you give me cars?" "It's fun," Ranger said. "And it keeps you safe. Do you want to know why keeping you safe is important to me?" "You love me?" "Yes." A sigh inadvertently escaped. "We're really screwed up, aren't we?" "In a very large way," Ranger said. ~Janet Evanovich

You have to believe in love stories and prince charming and that eventually you'll find your own happily ever after. ~Taylor Swift

I think to an extent every human being needs to be redeemed somewhat or at least needs to look at themselves and say, "I've made mistakes, I'm off course, I need to change." Which is probably the hardest thing for a human being to do, and maybe that's why it interests me so. ~Joss Whedon

The music comes first. When Geoff has made something the inspiration comes automatically. His music is very expressive. But still is is a very difficult process. I have to add something to his music, not push it away. It has to be equal, and I find that very difficult. ~Beth Gibbons

The style developed over decades, really, but I started out writing pretty traditional stories, then became impatient. It was a writer named Russell Edson who showed me that one could write in any way at all. ~Lydia Davis

I know people will think it's funny because I've done glamour modelling in the past, but I felt embarrassed about my body and just wanted to cover it up. ~Jennifer Ellison
