Quotable.

“If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away.” -Henry David Thoreau

“The beef-witted featherbrained rattleskulled clod-pated dim-domed noodle-noggined sapheaded lunk-knobbed boys. How could anybody accuse her of stealing them? Why would anybody want them anyway?” -From “The Princess Bride” by William Goldman

“Life isn’t fair, it’s just fairer than death, that’s all.” -(again) from “The Princess Bride”

“When I look back, I am so impressed again with the life-giving power of literature. If I were a young person today, trying to gain a sense of myself in the world, I would do that again by reading, just as I did when I was young.” -Maya Angelou

“Being a woman is a terribly difficult task, since it consists principally in dealing with men.” -Joseph Conrad

“We live as we dream–alone….” -Joseph Conrad

“I believe in pink. I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles.” -Audrey Hepburn

“For Attractive lips, speak words of kindness.  For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people.  For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry.  For beautiful hair, let a child run their fingers through it once a day.  For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone.  People, more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed. Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you will find one at the end of each of your arms.  As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, one for helping yourself and the other for helping others.” -Audrey Hepburn

“Nothing is impossible, the word itself says ‘I’m possible’!” -Audrey Hepburn

“All the darkness in the world cannot extinguish the light of a single candle.”  - St. Francis of Assisi

“No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.” - Eleanor Roosevelt

“It’s been my experience that you can nearly always enjoy things if you make up your mind firmly that you will.” - L.M. Montgomery

“It was love at first sight, at last sight, at ever and ever sight.” - Vladimir Nabokov

“I find television very educating. Every time somebody turns on the set, I go into the other room and read a book.”  - Groucho Marx

“I am so clever that sometimes I don’t understand a single word of what I am saying.” - Oscar Wilde
