Dan QuayleThe older you get, the better you get.
Sunil ChhetriIt were a real increase of human happiness, could all young men from the age of nineteen be covered under barrels, or rendered otherwise invisible; and there left to follow their lawful studies and callings, till they emerged, sadder and wiser, at the age of twenty-five.

Taylor SwiftHad I been a great athlete, I’m not sure I would have even gone into coaching. I may have turned out feeling that my life ended when my athletic career ended, as happens so many times with various athletes.
Lou HoltzGuilt is perhaps the most painful companion of death.
Coco ChanelThat is the real spiritual awakening, when something emerges from within you that is deeper than who you thought you were. So, the person is still there, but one could almost say that something more powerful shines through the person.
Eckhart TolleNo man lives without jostling and being jostled; in all ways he has to elbow himself through the world, giving and receiving offence.
Thomas CarlyleI heard that when Christina Aguilera went back to her prom, people, like, booed her. I can’t imagine going through that. If you know that’s going to happen, why put yourself in that situation? I’d rather play for 20,000 screaming people, you know?
Taylor SwiftWell, it’s looks like I’ve a love-hate thing going on with Monaco.
Lando NorrisI have no time to think about other writers. I am too busy with my own problems.
Harper LeeSitting on a bedroom floor crying is something that makes you feel really alone. If someone’s singing about that feeling, you feel bonded to that person. That’s the only way I can find an explanation for why 55,000 people would want to come see me sing.
Taylor SwiftThe people in my songs are all me.
Bob DylanA fly, Sir, may sting a stately horse and make him wince; but, one is but an insect, and the other is a horse still.

J. K. RowlingMen take only their needs into consideration – never their abilities.
Napoleon BonaparteOne can love a child, perhaps, more deeply than one can love another adult, but it is rash to assume that the child feels any love in return.
George OrwellI don’t think I’ve ever worked so hard on something, but working on Macintosh was the neatest experience of my life. Almost everyone who worked on it will say that. None of us wanted to release it at the end. It was as though we knew that once it was out of our hands, it wouldn’t be ours anymore.
Steve JobsPeople can cry much easier than they can change.
James BaldwinMarines don’t know how to spell the word ‚defeat‘.
Jim MattisI don’t like looking back. I’m always constantly looking forward. I’m not the one to sort of sit and cry over spilt milk. I’m too busy looking for the next cow.
Gordon RamsayThere is no person so severely punished, as those who subject themselves to the whip of their own remorse.

John SteinbeckI care not what others think of what I do, but I care very much about what I think of what I do! That is character!
Theodore RooseveltThere, in the chords and melodies, is everything I want to say. The words just jolly it along. It’s always been my way of expressing what, for me, is inexpressible by any other means.
David BowieI want to put a ding in the universe.
Steve JobsWeak minds sink under prosperity as well as adversity; but strong and deep ones have two high tides.
David HareI’m aware that, whatever the circumstances, there will always be speculation about me.
Cristiano RonaldoPeople tend to play in their comfort zone, so the best things are achieved in a state of surprise, actually.
Brian EnoYou gotta keep trying to find your niche and trying to fit into whatever slot that’s left for you or to make one of your own.
Dolly PartonOf course I get hurt.
Jackie ChanGood character is not formed in a week or a month. It is created little by little, day by day. Protracted and patient effort is needed to develop good character.
HeraclitusI didn’t think it was special to be able to sing.
Amy WinehouseI couldn’t ever go back home without being something. I probably would never have gone back home. That was definitely a big motivation. To get back home, and not empty-handed.
The WeekndMy pride fell with my fortunes.
William ShakespeareI was brought up as an only child, and we were very close. But when I was 14, we got evicted. We came home to a padlock, and I looked up at my mom and she was crying, and there was nothing to do.
Dwayne JohnsonPrepare for the unknown by studying how others in the past have coped with the unforeseeable and the unpredictable.

Taylor SwiftThe best thing I did was to choose the right heroes.
Warren BuffettAny hand that I’ve shaken, any person that I met when I was Joe Blow, now that I’m this guy Kevin Hart, has come back. That’s why I treat everybody with respect. I’m always a nice pleasant guy to meet because when they come back to you, they remember.
Kevin HartI gather from motivation around me – from a lot of personalities who have done well in their respective fields.
Sunil ChhetriI’ve done the bad-boy thing. It was fun for a good three months. But the thing about bad boys is, you have to keep in mind, you’re never gonna marry a bad boy.
Ariana GrandeThere is no coming to consciousness without pain.
Carl JungI do not know what I may appear to the world; but to myself, I seem to have been only like a boy playing on the seashore, and diverting myself now and then in finding a smoother pebble or prettier shell than ordinary, while the great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me.
Isaac NewtonIn every parting there is an image of death.
George EliotWhen I grew up, the Devil was a reason why I had a headache or the Devil was the reason I got mad today. We always blamed the Devil. I think today when I say the Enemy, I like to make it broader. Sometimes the Enemy can be our own thoughts.
Joel OsteenHere is the rule to remember in the future, When anything tempts you to be bitter: not, ‚This is a misfortune‘ but ‚To bear this worthily is good fortune.‘

Vincent Van Gogh
