"Life isn't a lazy cruise on some endless, calm, and temperate sea. Life is a raging ocean with swells and tidal waves that wreck and sink your boat.

"When she stopped conforming to the conventional picture of femininity she finally began to enjoy being a woman."
Betty Friedan
"Values are principles and ideas that bring meaning to the seemingly mundane experience of life. A meaningful life that ultimately brings happiness and pride requires you to respond to temptations as well as challenges with honor, dignity, and courage."
Laura Schlessinger
"We read in bed because reading is halfway between life and dreaming, our own consciousness in someone else's mind."
Anna Quindlen
"One secret of life is that the reason life works at all is that not everyone in your tribe is nuts on the same day. Another secret is that laughter is carbonated holiness."
