My favorite quote is "Life is too short to be little," written by Disraeli. Often we allow ourselves to be upset by small things we should despise and forget. We lose many irreplaceable hours brooding over grievances that, in a year's time, will be forgotten by us and by everybody. No, let us devote our life to worthwhile actions and feelings, to great thoughts, real affections and enduring undertakings.
Andre Maurois
The one thing that doesn't abide by majority rule is a person's conscience.

Edna Ferber
We don't see things as they are, we see them as we are.
Anais Nin
You don't get harmony when everybody sings the same note.
