So my judgment is that Syria will move; Syria will change, as it embraces a legitimate relationship with the United States and the West and economic opportunity that comes with it and the participation that comes with it. View quote
John Kerry
What men call friendship is only social intercourse, an exchange of favours and good offices; it comes down to a commercial dealing in which self-esteem always expects to profit. View quote
André Maurois
On the mountains there is freedom! The world is perfect everywhere, Save where man comes with his torment. View quote
Friedrich Schiller
Our country's in deep trouble. We don't know what we're doing when it comes to devaluations and all of these countries all over the world, especially China. They're the best, the best ever at it. What they're doing to us is a very, very sad thing. View quote
Donald Trump
You know they call corn-on-the-cob "corn-on-the-cob," right? But that's how it comes out of the ground, man. They should call that "corn", and they should call every other version "corn-off-the-cob." It's not like if you cut off my arm you would call my arm "Mitch", but then reattach it and call it "Mitch-all-together." View quote
Mitch Hedberg
I have a lot of interest in interior rhyming; not just rhyming at the end of the lines, but playing around with rhymes within the lines, playing with where the syllabic emphases in the sentences are, lining those up at strange moments in the line of the song. I'm not sure if that comes across or not. View quote
Joanna Newsom
This is practically the language used to fallen women, and chiefly by their own sex: "God may forgive you, but we never can!" - a declaration which, however common, in spirit if not in substance, is, when one comes to analyse it, unparalleled in its arrogance of blasphemy. That for a single offence, however grave, a whole life should be blasted, is a doctrine repugnant even to Nature's own dealings in the visible world. View quote
Dinah Craik
There is no truer truth obtainable By Man than comes of music. View quote
Robert Browning
The great artist when he comes, uses everything that has been discovered or known about his art up to that point, being able to accept or reject in a time so short it seems that the knowledge was born with him, rather than that he takes instantly what it takes the ordinary man a lifetime to know, and then the great artist goes beyond what has been done or known and makes something of his own. (Ernest Hemingway)
Every day is a new day. It is better to be lucky. But I would rather be exact. Then when luck comes you are ready. View quote
Ernest Hemingway
We in America should see that no man is ever given, no matter how gradually or how noble and excellent the man, the power to put this country into a war which is now being prepared and brought closer each day with all the pre-meditation of a long planned murder. For when you give power to an executive you do not know who will be filling that position when the time of crisis comes. View quote
Ernest Hemingway
Luck is a thing that comes in many forms and who can recognize her? View quote
Ernest Hemingway
Why does everybody agree that atmospheric oxygen... comes from life, but no one speaks about the other gases coming from life? View quote
Lynn Margulis
On the third day after someone dies, the soul comes back to settle scores. In my mother's case, this would be the first day of the lunar new year. And because it is the new year, all debts must be paid, or disaster and misfortune will follow. View quote
Amy Tan
Chance is the first step you take, luck is what comes afterward. View quote

External success has to do with people who may see me as a model, or an example, or a representative. As much as I may dislike or want to reject that responsibility, this is something that comes with public success. It's important to give others a sense of hope that it is possible and you can come from really different places in the world and find your own place in the world that's unique for yourself. View quote
Amy Tan
Let this great maxim be my virtue's guide,- In part she is to blame that has been tried: He comes too near that comes to be denied. View quote

There is a great deal of pain in life and perhaps the only pain that can be avoided is the pain that comes from trying to avoid pain. View quote
Ronald David Laing
To fire a bullet into the heart or brains of one's fellow man-even a fellow man striving to do the same to you-creates what might be called an unassimilable memory: a memory that floats on daily life the way an oil stain floats on rainwater. Stir the rain barrel, scatter the oil into countless drops, disperse it all you like, but it will not mix; and eventually the slick comes back, as loathsomely intact as it ever was. View quote
Robert Charles Wilson
When it comes to words I have a uniqueness that I find almost impossible in art – and it's my words that actually make my art quite unique. View quote
Tracey Emin
There never comes a point where a theory can be said to be true. The most that one can claim for any theory is that it has shared the successes of all its rivals and that it has passed at least one test which they have failed. View quote
Alfred Jules Ayer
