Peter ThielIf he could have his way, Satan would distract us from our heritage. He would have us become involved in a million and one things in this life-probably none of which is very important in the long run-to keep us from concentrating on the things that are really important, particularly the reality that we are God's children.

Number three is to try living with ethical, moral and spiritual values, which culminates in unselfish service.
Radhanath SwamiI think growing up it was never an issue for me to think about working out or having a healthy lifestyle because I danced so much.

Agatha ChristieGunn would be an important figure-rewarding, delightful, accomplished, enduring-in the history of English-language poetry even were his life not as fascinating as it now seems; he would be an important figure in the history of gay writing and in the history of transatlantic literary relations even were his poetry not so good as it is.
