Happiness is the consequence of personal effort. You must fight for it, strive for it, and insist upon it.

A true soul mate is a mirror, the person who shows you everything that is holding you back, the person who brings you to your own attention so you can change your life.

I've never seen any life transformation that didn't begin with the person in question finally getting tired of their own bullshit.

Tis' better to live your own life imperfectly than to imitate someone else's perfectly.

Stop wearing your wishbone where your backbone ought to be.

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

Play the man Master Ridley we shall this day light such a candle by God's grace in England as I trust shall never be put out.

Dollar depreciation leads to higher inflation and ultimately forces foreign creditors to question their rationale and indeed their sanity for continuing purchases of U.S. Treasuries.

My strength is basically my get off. It is overpowering. I can get after the quarterback on first, second and third down. I pride myself on being an every down guy.

Once you have looked at the land from atop the Kahlenberg, you will understand what I write and who I am.

Every passion, every emotion, has its effect upon the mind. Every change of mind, however slight, has its effect upon the body.

I have loved and been in love. There's a big difference.

I'm just trying to change my life because I'm not above killing any drug dealer for money.

Who then can so softly bind up the wound of another as he who has felt the same wound himself.
