I actually feel like women in my position, when we have all at our disposal to help us, shouldn’t complain when we consider all of the people who are really struggling and don’t have the means or support. Many people are single, raising children. That’s hard.
Angelina JolieThe vibe on ‚Starboy‘ comes from that hip-hop culture of braggadocio, from Wu-Tang and 50 Cent, the kind of music I listened to as a kid.
The WeekndThere’s no tragedy in life like the death of a child. Things never get back to the way they were.

Joe BidenIf I’m in a political argument, I think I can, with reasonable accuracy and without boasting, put the other person’s side of the case at least as well as they could. One has to be able to say that in any well-conducted argument.
Christopher HitchensThose who don’t know how to weep with their whole heart, don’t know how to laugh either.
Golda MeirCrimes against children are the most heinous crime. That, for me, would be a reason for capital punishment because children are innocent and need the guidance of an adult society.
Clint EastwoodIt is easy enough to be friendly to one’s friends. But to befriend the one who regards himself as your enemy is the quintessence of true religion. The other is mere business.

Henry David ThoreauLet your heart feel for the afflictions and distress of everyone, and let your hand give in proportion to your purse.

Margaret AtwoodIf you find it in your heart to care for somebody else, you will have succeeded.
Maya AngelouThe sky is the daily bread of the eyes.
Ralph Waldo EmersonI remember how my mother would bring us to chapel on Sundays… and my father used to wait outside. One of the things that I picked up from my father and my mother was the sense that religion often gets in the way of God. For me, at least, it got in the way.
BonoIt is the nature of every person to error, but only the fool perseveres in error.
Marcus Tullius CiceroIt is the flash which appears, the thunderbolt will follow.
VoltaireI remember when my mother, Shyamala Harris, bought our first home. I was thirteen. She was so proud, and my sister and I were so excited. Millions of Americans know that feeling of walking through the front door of their own home for the first time – the feeling of reaching for opportunity and finding it.
Kamala HarrisWhen California was wild, it was the floweriest part of the continent.
John MuirWe must develop and maintain the capacity to forgive. He who is devoid of the power to forgive is devoid of the power to love. There is some good in the worst of us and some evil in the best of us. When we discover this, we are less prone to hate our enemies.
Martin Luther King, Jr.Sooner or later we’re all someone’s dog.

Frank ZappaIf thy brother wrongs thee, remember not so much his wrong-doing, but more than ever that he is thy brother.
EpictetusUs sing and dance, make faces and give flower bouquets, trying to be loved. You ever notice that trees do everything to git attention we do, except walk?
Alice WalkerHappy, happy Christmas, that can win us back to the delusions of our childhood days, recall to the old man the pleasures of his youth, and transport the traveler back to his own fireside and quiet home!
Charles DickensThe sun, too, shines into cesspools and is not polluted.
DiogenesGod never meant that people were to wear clothes. He meant we were to be nude. But we were in a state of innocence. Then sin came into the human race and became a blood poisoning.
Billy GrahamI got interested in reading very early, because a story was read to me, by Hans Christian Andersen, which was ‚The Little Mermaid,‘ and I don’t know if you remember ‚The Little Mermaid,‘ but it’s dreadfully sad. The little mermaid falls in love with this prince, but she cannot marry him because she is a mermaid.
Alice MunroDo not impose on others what you yourself do not desire.
ConfuciusPhilosophically considered, the universe is composed of Nature and the Soul. Strictly speaking, therefore, all that is separate from us, all which Philosophy distinguishes as the ‚Not Me,‘ that is, both nature and art, all other men and my own body, must be ranked under this name, ‚Nature.‘
Ralph Waldo EmersonPoets say science takes away from the beauty of the stars – mere globs of gas atoms. I, too, can see the stars on a desert night, and feel them. But do I see less or more?
Richard P. FeynmanThe world, we are told, was made especially for man – a presumption not supported by all the facts. A numerous class of men are painfully astonished whenever they find anything, living or dead, in all God’s universe, which they cannot eat or render in some way what they call useful to themselves.
John MuirOccurrences in this domain are beyond the reach of exact prediction because of the variety of factors in operation, not because of any lack of order in nature.
