“Sometimes it’s better to put love into hugs than to put it into words. Soul meets soul on lovers’ lips.”

It is only by softening and disguising dead flesh by culinary preparation that it is rendered susceptible of mastication or digestion, and that the sight of its bloody juices and raw horror does not excite intolerable loathing and disgust.

Worse than a bloody hand is a hard heart.

I love tranquil solitude.

Life and the world, or whatever we call that which we are and feel, is an astonishing thing. The mist of familiarity obscures from us the wonder of our being. We are struck with admiration at some of its transient modifications, but it is itself the great miracle.

Soul meets soul on lovers’ lips.

We look before and after, And pine for what is not; Our sincerest laughter With some pain is fraught; Our sweetest songs are those that tell of saddest thought.

Then black despair, The shadow of a starless night, was thrown Over the world in which I moved alone.

Fate, Time, Occasion, Chance, and Change? To these All things are subject but eternal love.

I wish no living thing to suffer pain.

I have made my bed In charnels and on coffins, where black death Keeps record of the trophies won.

There Is No God. This negation must be understood solely to affect a creative Deity. The hypothesis of a pervading Spirit co-eternal with the universe remains unshaken.

The jealous keys of truth’s eternal doors.

Music, when soft voices die Vibrates in the memory.

Fame, power, and gold, are loved for their own sakes – are worshipped with a blind, habitual idolatry.

All love is sweet Given or returned. Common as light is love, And its familiar voice wearies not ever.

Heaven’s ebon vault Studded with stars unutterably bright, Through which the moon’s unclouded grandeur rolls, Seems like a canopy which love has spread To curtain her sleeping world.

If you’re doing something and keep doing it, you’re gonna get better results.

It is better to have a bad method than to have none.

Makeup looks better if your skin is not dry. And sometimes, if my skin peels, then it’s all just bad. Basically, take care of your skin to make your makeup look nice.

When you do not change up a lot, people may know you a lot better than they should.

I also think I could probably repeat the commercial success; whether I want to or not is a different matter. I think there is still better work inside me.

I think it comes easy to work hard. I was always taught, don’t short-change yourself. Keep working to get better.

Cardi is way better than Nicki. I don’t care what no one says.

I like to hit the gym early in the morning. I feel better throughout the day when I get in a workout first thing in the morning.
