“Algumas vezes, temos de ser o barqueiro, alguém que mostre às pessoas que há uma outra margem e que é possível chegar lá.” Abandonar o sofrimento, o papel de vítima e se libertar para viver apreciando a vida.

O amadurecimento de um ser humano é como o de uma planta, de uma flor. Não podemos forçar para que se abra, pois suas pétalas quebrariam. Não podemos esquecer que tudo tem seu tempo.

Não controlamos todas as causas, todas as condições e muito menos todos os efeitos do que fazemos, falamos e pensamos. Mas podemos trabalhar nas nossas intenções, nos nossos votos, nos nossos valores e, agindo através da compaixão, com discernimento, procurar minimizar a dor e o sofrimento no mundo.

Quando percebemos nossos sentimentos e nossas emoções, quando conseguimos verbalizar o que sentimos, os libertamos.

A verdadeira amizade permanece sem recalques, sem segredos. Na confiança de perceber e de compreender sem julgar.

Céu e inferno estão em nós mesmos. Quando entramos no mundo do ódio, da raiva, do rancor, da vingança, do ciúme, do tédio, da preguiça, da ganância, da ignorância, penetramos o inferno. Perdemos a condição de apreciar a vida. Sofremos e causamos sofrimento.

Quando penetramos o mundo da compreensão, da sabedoria, da compaixão, da ternura, do amor incondicional, adentramos os portais do céu. Recuperamos a capacidade de apreciar a vida. Alegramo-nos e causamos alegrias a muitos seres.

I plan my golf outfits for the tournaments, I recycle some for the practice rounds, but I always have new ideas for my golf attire, and I like to dress nice after the rounds, so I have to bring all my heels. It's terrible. The worst part about being on tour is living out of a suitcase.

You get too old to lose. When you were a young guy, you bounced back from losses.

You build your reality from the desires and thoughts that you focused upon.

I think of myself as a storyteller.

There are no great people. There are only great topics.

I hadn't worked for a couple of years so I thought it would be nice to earn some money and pay the bills.

I'm not keen on the Internet. I don't trust it.

I don't tweet, I don't go on Facebook. I think there's too much information about all of us out there. I'm liking the idea of privacy more and more.

On Cape Cod, great white shark stocks have been growing, or at least becoming more concentrated, because of the multiplying numbers of seals around Monomoy Island. We are fortunate to have such abundance of these sharks in our own waters. Around the globe, we are killing in excess of 100 million sharks each year.

A hypocrite is a person who but who isnt

This majority is working for America, and one of those ways is we have tremendously low unemployment. This economy has created millions of new jobs, and we are expecting growth this first quarter of somewhere higher than 4 percent.

You are free, you are powerful, you are good, you are love, you have value, you have a purpose. All is well.

My first priority is time with my family.

Fortune is like the market, where, many times, if you can stay a little, the price will fall.

I was thrilled and amazed when I found out we won the Nobel Prize. The dedicated and talented women and men of the COBE team collaborated to produce the science results being recognized. This is truly such a rare and special honor.

It's like, God, I'm in my 80s. Nobody, when I die, is going to say, 'How young?' They're going to say she had a great ride.

I tend to go to the theater a lot. I've always loved it.

'The Victorian Internet' is a must read for anyone interested in the history of technology and in the cycles of hype, boom, and bust that seem to only quicken with each new wave of innovation. Highly recommended.

In my opinion, there is no aspect of reality beyond the reach of the human mind.

It captures a lot of the spirit of the '50s.

Saying of the prophet reflection the faithful are mirrors, one to the other.

If you've got unemployment, low pay, that was just too bad. But that was the system. That was the sort of economy and philosophy against which I was fighting in the 1930s.

I belong to a family where I think we're all fairly treated, boys or girls. Although I have to work doubly hard just to be able to be recognised. That meant long hours, but the hard work paid off.

Precisely what menstruation is, is not yet very well known.
