Whatโs the use of talking forgiveness! I have forgiven as it is!

If the Sun and its retinue of worlds is only one system among many, then many other systems will be like ours: home to life.

Seth ShostakMy father announced early on that he didn't want his sons to be "country club bums." And for a number of reasons, I bore the brunt of that - I have an older brother and two younger brothers. So he had me work in all my spare time.

That's a big deal, because you learn things working that you don't learn in school.

W. Somerset MaughamAbuse counselors say of the abusive client: โWhen he looks at himself in the morning and sees his dirty face, he sets about washing the mirror.
Lundy BancroftThat idea of not being exactly who you write as is so crucial. Even looking at those words as I type them, it feels dirty, it feels like I'm admitting something.

But the original essence of something is always lost when it's reproduced.

What they are and what they can do makes them superior to men, and their proper tactic is to demand special privileges, all the traffic will bear. They should never settle merely for equality. For women, "equality" is a disaster.
Robert A. HeinleinGood movies make you care, make you believe in possibilities again. If somewhere in the Hollywood-entertainment world someone has managed to break through with something that speaks to you, then it isnโt all corruption. The movie doesnโt have to be great; it can be stupid and empty and you can still have the joy of a good performance, or the joy in just a good line. An actorโs scowl, a small subversive gesture, a dirty remark that someone tosses off with a mock-innocent face, and the world makes a little bit of sense.

I pray that wasn't her moment, Pray I still got time.

Fyodor Dostoevsky
