In externals we advance with lightening express speed in modes of thought and sympathy we lumber on in stage-coach fashion.

Truly it is in darkness that one finds the light so when we are in sorrow then this light is nearest of all to us.

When you are sorrowful look again in your heart and you shall see that in truth you are weeping for that which has been your delight.

I just want to continue the success and be an athlete that is shown in a good light in New York City.

I wanted to highlight that whole dreadful process in book publishing that 'nothing succeeds like success.'

An actor's popularity is fleeting. His success has the life expectancy of a small boy who is about to look into a gas tank with a lighted match.

Part of my strength as an actor comes from what I've learned all these years: when you play a villain you try to get the light touches when you play a hero you try to get in some of the warts.

First I shall name the eagle of which there are three species: the great grey eagle is the largest of great strength and high flight he chiefly preys on fawns and other young quadrupeds.

Libraries are reservoirs of strength grace and wit reminders of order calm and continuity lakes of mental energy neither warm nor cold light nor dark.

Organic buildings are the strength and lightness of the spiders' spinning buildings qualified by light bred by native character to environment married to the ground.

There are dark shadows on the earth but its lights are stronger in the contrast.

In all my perplexities and distresses the Bible has never failed to give me light and strength.

I learned easily and had time to follow my inclination for sports (light athletics and skiing) and chemistry which I taught myself by reading all textbooks I could get.

I'm delighted about the track's success in the sports world but the frustrating thing is I don't think I got rich on it. The labels and publishers did very cheap deals on our songs.

Playing in New England and the Boston area the fans are so passionate about their sports if you don't play well they'll let you know so I know it's not something that they take lightly.

The only thing a golfer needs is more daylight.

I am building a fire and everyday I train I add more fuel. At just the right moment I light the match.

And I feel that we in our society should not be held by any such myth that we should do everything we can to gain a delight and joy in our society with all the available parts of the palette.

This could never be a crime in any society which deems himself enlightened.

Modernity the child of the Enlightenment failed when it became apparent that the good society cannot be achieved by unaided reason.

I suppose society is wonderfully delightful. To be in it is merely a bore. But to be out of it is simply a tragedy.

I know of no safe depository of the ultimate powers of the society but the people themselves and if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise their control with a wholesome discretion the remedy is not to take it from them but to inform their discretion.

The Viennese wash everything. Where else in the world does the government hire public servants to wash public telephone booths and the glass over traffic lights? Every time I see someone doing these things I smile like a child.

Oh the summer night Has a smile of light And she sits on a sapphire throne.
