There is a choice before us as people who live in a great world, so knit together that even America cannot stand quite outside it, or act as though it were situated somewhere on the moon!

RajneeshIn fact, I take the view that God, in his infinite wisdom, didn't bother to spring for two joints - heaven and hell. They're the same place, but heaven is when you get everything you want and you meet Mummy and Daddy and your best friends and you all have a hug and a kiss and play your harps. Hell is the same place - no fire and brimstone - but they just all pass by and don't see you. There's nothing, no recognition. You're waving, โIt's me, your father,โ but you're invisible. You're on a cloud, you've got your harp, but you can't play with nobody because they don't see you. That's hell.

That's an insane GOD and therefore not mine. Because, see, GOD would be very sane, don't you get it?

George S. PattonWe have to nurture our young women and understand the beauty and the strength of being a woman.

What you do is you don't allow anyone to dictate who you are.
