3 December 2020 William Hazlitt Few things tend more to alienate friendship than a want of punctuality in our engagements. I have known the breach of a promise to dine or sup to break up more than one intimacy.
3 December 2020 Jeff Bridges Yeah, I’ve been interested in music since I was a teenager, always writing songs.
3 December 2020 Aleksa Palladino Your crew becomes your family and you trust the director and the other actors on the set, and it’s a very safe place.
3 December 2020 Lee Iacocca Talk to people in their own language. If you do it well, they’ll say, ‘God, he said exactly what I was thinking.’ And when they begin to respect you, they’ll follow you to the death.
3 December 2020 Bertrand Russell Aristotle could have avoided the mistake of thinking that women have fewer teeth than men, by the simple device of asking Mrs. Aristotle to keep her mouth open while he counted.
3 December 2020 P. J. O'Rourke The good news is that, according to the Obama administration, the rich will pay for everything. The bad news is that, according to the Obama administration, you’re rich.

3 December 2020 Drew Bledsoe I retire with a smile on my face, in good health, and ready to spend autumns at my kids’ games instead of my own. I’m excited to start the next chapter of my life.
3 December 2020 Simon Sinek When you explain to people what you’re trying to do, as opposed to just making demands or delegating tasks, you can build instant trust, even if it’s just for that short time you’re on the phone.
3 December 2020 Twyla Tharp I thought I had to make an impact on history. I had to become the greatest choreographer of my time. That was my mission. Posterity deals with us however it sees fit. But I gave it 20 years of my best shot.
3 December 2020 Christopher Hitchens I don’t think Romney is wacky at all, but religion makes intelligent people say and do wacky things, believe and affirm crazy things. Left on his own, Romney would never have said something like the Garden Of Eden was in Missouri, and will be again.
3 December 2020 Robin Leach Travel is very subjective. What one person loves, another loathes. I would say a private paradise in the Caribbean. If you want culture and class, I would say Tuscany. If you want exotic, I would say Bangkok, Thailand.
3 December 2020 Ben Okri Don’t despair too much if you see beautiful things destroyed, if you see them perish. Because the best things are always growing in secret.

3 December 2020 Rita Mae Brown About all you can do in life is be who you are. Some people will love you for you. Most will love you for what you can do for them, and some won’t like you at all.
3 December 2020 Helen Keller Walking with a friend in the dark is better than walking alone in the light.
3 December 2020 Arnold Schwarzenegger I knew I was a winner back in the late sixties. I knew I was destined for great things. People will say that kind of thinking is totally immodest. I agree. Modesty is not a word that applies to me in any way – I hope it never will.
3 December 2020 Shaun White Snowboarding’s tough, because you’ve got to go to the mountains. For me, I love the skateboard season because I get to hangout at home and still be skating. I don’t have to travel to Norway or Japan or these crazy places to be snowboarding.
