Walt Disney // "What ever you do, do it well. Do it so well that when people see you do it, they will want to come back and see you do it again and they will want to bring others and show them how well you do what you do."
Marcel Proust // "Happiness is good for the body, but it is grief which develops the strengths of the mind."
Marilyn Monroe // "Beneath the makeup and behind the smile, I am just a girl who wishes for the world."
Gloria Steinem // "We've begun to raise daughters more like sons...but few have the courage to raise our sons more like our daughters."
Stephen Hawking // "We are just an advanced breed of monkeys on a minor planet of a very average star. But we can understand the universe. That makes us something very special."
Audrey Hepburn // "I never think of myself as an icon. What is in other people's minds is not in my mind. I just do my thing."
Orson Welles // "I prefer people who rock the boat to people who jump out."
Charles Bukowski // "Your life is your life. Don't let it be clubbed into dank submission. Be on the watch. There are ways out. There is a light somewhere. It may not be much light but it beats the darkness... You can't beat death but you can beat death in life...and the more often you learn to do it, the more light there will be. Your life is your life. Know it while you have it. You are marvelous."
Julia Child // "Just speak very loudly and quickly, and state your position with utter conviction, as the French do, and you'll have a marvelous time."
Thornton Wilder // "Everybody should eavesdrop once in a while. There's nothing like eavesdropping to show you that the world outside your head is different from the world inside your head."
Robin Williams // "We get to choose who we let into our weird little worlds."
Albert Einstein // "A human being is a part of the whole, called by us "Universe"... He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest — a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature... Nobody is able to achieve this completely, but striving for such achievement is, in itself, a part of the liberation and a foundation for inner security."
