“A diplomat is a man who always remembers a woman’s birthday but never remembers her age.”

Live life like its the last breath you take for that breath is the whole essence of living, the little things in life are what connects us to all the big things we live for.

Home is the place where, when you have to go there, they have to take you in.

Like a piece of ice on a hot stove the poem must ride on its own melting.

Any work of art must first of all tell a story.

Freedom lies in being bold.

Education is the ability to listen to almost anything without losing your temper or your self-confidence.

Have courage and a little willingness to venture and be defeated.

You have freedom when you’re easy in your harness.

All thought is a feat of association; having what’s in front of you bring up something in your mind that you almost didn’t know you knew.

The test is always how we treat the poor.

All the fun is in how you say a thing.

There never was any heart truly great and generous, that was not also tender and compassionate.

The ear is the only true writer and the only true reader.

The artist in me cries out for design.

A liberal is a man too broadminded to take his own side in a quarrel.

Never cut what you can untie.

Some people are old at 18 and some are young at 90. Time is a concept that humans created.

By time and age full many things are taught.

No matter your age, you are here today, so there is time.

Future ages will wonder at us, as the present age wonders at us now.

Your age is your badge of honor.

Age is a measurement of time. Time is your most valuable resource, without it you have nothing.

The pride of youth is in strength and beauty, the pride of old age is in discretion.

We will never reach an age in life where there is nothing to learn.
