- Thomas Jefferson99◆ So Matilda's strong young mind continued to grow, nurtured by the voices of all those authors who had sent their books out into the world like ships on the sea. These books gave Matilda a hopeful and comforting message: You are not alone.
- Roald Dahl99◆ We all live with the objective of being happy; our lives are all different and yet the same.
- Anne Frank99◆ After all, tomorrow is another day!
- Margaret Mitchell99◆ Writing and reading decrease our sense of isolation. They deepen and widen and expand our sense of life: they feed the soul. When writers make us shake our heads with the exactness of their prose and their truths, and even make us laugh about ourselves or life, our buoyancy is restored. We are given a shot at dancing with, or at least clapping along with, the absurdity of life, instead of being squashed by it over and over again. It's like singing on a boat during a terrible storm at sea. You can't stop the raging storm, but singing can change the hearts and spirits of the people who are together on that ship.
- Anne Lamott99◆ My heart love till now for sweared sight, for I never saw true beauty till this night.
- William Shakespeare99◆ How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. I love thee to the depth and breadth and height. My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight For the ends of being and ideal grace. I love thee to the level of every day's, Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light. I love thee freely, as men strive for right. I love thee purely, as they turn from praise. I love thee with the passion put to use, In my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith. I love thee with a love I seemed to lose, With my lost saints. I love thee with the breath, Smiles, tears, of all my life; and, if God choose, I shall but love thee better after death.
- William Shakespeare99◆ My tongue will tell the anger of my heart, or else my heart concealing it will break.
- William Shakespeare99◆ This above all: to thine own self be true, And it must follow, as the night the day, Thou canst not then be false to any man. -Polonius
- William Shakespeare99◆ Love to faults is always blind, always is to joy inclined. Lawless, winged, and unconfined, and breaks all chains from every mind.
- William Shakespeare99◆ With loves light wings did I o'perch this walls; For stony limits cannot hold love out. - Romeo
- William Shakespeare99◆ When true legends unite ,And for a common cause they fight .Then its them- the Gods , who must fear their might
- Kevin Knight99◆ Literature is an occupation in which you have to keep proving your talent to people who have none.

- Richey Edwards99◆ "Reading history is good for all of us," he says, not surprisingly, perhaps, but his rationale is a fresh, somewhat bracing thought: "If you know history, you know that there is no such thing as a self-made man or self-made woman. We are shaped by people we have never met. Yes, reading history will make you a better citizen and more appreciative of the law, and of freedom, and of how the economy works or doesn't work, but it is also an immense pleasurethe way art is, or music is, or poetry is. And it's never stale."
- David C McCullough99
