Quotes by Mother Teresa (26 August 1910 – 5 September 1997)
“Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love.”
“I know God won't give me anything I can't handle. I just wish he didn't trust me so much.”
“Peace begins with a smile.”
“I am not sure exactly what heaven will be like, but I know that when we die and it comes time for God to judge us, he will not ask, 'How many good things have you done in your life?' rather he will ask, 'How much love did you put into what you did?”
“Every time you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing.”
“Do not think that love in order to be genuine has to be extraordinary. What we need is to love without getting tired. Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your strength lies.”

Quotes by Sheryl Sandberg Born: August 28, 1969
“What would you do if you weren't afraid?”
“Done is better than perfect.”
“When looking for a life partner, my advice to women is date all of them: the bad boys, the cool boys, the commitment-phobic boys, the crazy boys. But do not marry them. The things that make the bad boys sexy do not make them good husbands. When it comes time to settle down, find someone who wants an equal partner. Someone who thinks women should be smart, opinionated and ambitious. Someone who values fairness and expects or, even better, wants to do his share in the home. These men exist and, trust me, over time, nothing is sexier.”
“In the future, there will be no female leaders. There will just be leaders.”

Movie quotes by Richard Gere Born: August 31, 1949
Billy Flynn (Chicago): "I don't mean to toot my own horn, but if Jesus Christ lived in Chicago today, and he had come to me and he had five thousand dollars, let's just say things would have turned out differently."
Saul (Bee Season): "There are people who believe that letters are an expression of a very special primal energy and when they combine to make words they hold all the secrets of the universe..."
Edward Lewis (Pretty Woman): "I think we both know she's not my niece."
Jack Sommersby (Sommersby): "Being your husband has been the only thing I've ever done that I'm proud of."

Quotes by Rachel Zoe Born: September 1, 1971
On her weight "Truthfully, I've never seen myself as being too thin. Sometimes I'll look at photos and be like, 'Oh, that's not a good look.' But generally speaking, I'm not too thin."
On "dying" for fashion "Just throw me in my coffin now with those earrings on." "I'm having a f**king Chanel heart attack right now."
On pregnancy fears "I just wish Rodger would carry it. I’m actually not scared of getting fat at all, but am I physically strong enough? I’m not the epitome of strength, exactly."
On quality over quantity "As far as I can remember, every dime I ever had went to something extravagant. I would rather spend more, buy fewer items and have them forever."
On cooking a Thanksgiving turkey "You realize that this has become, like, Cameron Diaz's, like, Oscar dress. It wakes me up in the middle of the night in a cold sweat."

Quotes by Salma Hayek Born: September 2, 1966
"Before you do anything, think. If you do something to try and impress someone, to be loved, accepted or even to get someone's attention, stop and think. So many people are busy trying to create an image, they die in the process."
"I have gotten a lot more attention than...other women that I find incredibly beautiful. And this has happened to me ever since I was a girl, when I was flat, had no teeth, was skinny and small as I could be. I always got more attention than anyone else. If I hadn't, I would have made sure I did."
"I'm a bit of an abstract figure that people can project their fantasies on; it's pretty much what we all are, otherwise we wouldn't be stars, and people wouldn't be interested. But people project things on you that have nothing to do with what you really are, or they see a little something and then exaggerate it. And you can't really control that."

Quotes by Charlie Sheen Born: September 3, 1965
1. "I got tiger blood, man. My brain...fires in a way that is - I don't know, maybe not from this particular terrestrial realm."
2. "I am on a drug. It's called Charlie Sheen. It's not available because if you try it, you will die. Your face will melt off and your children will weep over your exploded body."
3. “I’m tired of pretending like I’m not special. I’m tired of pretending like I’m not bitchin’, a total freakin’ rock star from Mars.”
4. "I'm bi-winning. I win here and I win there. Now what? If I'm bi-polar, aren't there moments where a guy like crashes in the corner like, 'Oh my God, it's all my mom's fault!' Shut up! Shut up! Stop! Move forward."
5. I'm sorry, man, but I've got magic. I've got poetry in my fingertips. Most of the time — and this includes naps — I'm an F-18, bro. And I will destroy you in the air. I will deploy my ordinance to the ground."

Quotes by Werner Hans Erhard Born: September 5, 1935
Integrity: "You and I go through life, and you would be surprised how much of the time in life the question, 'How can I live and have integrity at the same time?' is present. It's very difficult for people to live with integrity. Usually, there seems to be a conflict between integrity and living. The fact is that you give up your life when you compromise integrity."
Standards: “Is it possible to be committed to a set of standards that have nothing to do with being fully alive? You've got standards rather than possibilities, and the standards are more important than life itself."
Participation: “What I intend to create is the opportunity for people to participate in the transformation of people. For me it is the highest expression of humanity to contribute, to facilitate, to participate in the transformation of humanity."

Quotes by Paul Walker (September 12, 1973 – November 30, 2013)
On Cars "I'm a crazy car guy. I've got an airplane hangar full of cars."
His Motto "I live by 'Go big or go home.' That's with everything. It's like either commit and go for it or don't do it at all. I apply that to everything. I apply that to relationships, I apply that to like sports, I apply that to everything. That's what I live by. That's how I like it."
On Happiness "You know, all that really matters is that the people you love are happy and healthy. Everything else is just sprinkles on the sundae."
On Racing "If one day the speed kills me, do not cry because I was smiling."

Quotes by Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald (September 24, 1896 – December 21, 1940)
"The years between thirty-five and sixty-five revolve before the passive mind as one unexplained, confusing merry-go-round. True, they are a merry-go-round of ill-gaited and wind-broken horses, painted first in pastel colors, then in dull grays and browns, but perplexing and intolerably dizzy the thing is, as never were the merry-go-rounds of childhood or adolescence; as never, surely, were the certain-coursed, dynamic roller-coasters of youth. For most men and women these thirty years are taken up with a gradual withdrawal from life."
"It is in the thirties that we want friends. In the forties we know they won't save us any more than love did."

“Never give in. Never give in. Never, never, never, never, in nothing, great or small, large or petty, never give in, except to convictions of honour and good sense."
- Winston S. Churchill, address to the boys of Harrow School, October 29, 1941.

“The beautiful souls are they that are universal, open, and ready for all things.” “Stubborn and ardent clinging to one's opinion is the best proof of stupidity.” — Michel Eyquem de Montaigne (28 February 1533 – 13 September 1592)
idgaf about your stupid idols and you beta behavior of buttlicking other people, just be good to others and learn from life, not because some selfish egocentric camwh0re human said something that inspired your maggot brain. Especially don't look up to people who are in cults or religious nonsense groups, they only help each other and see other people as cattle.

“A man will be imprisoned in a room with a door that's unlocked and opens inwards; as long as it does not occur to him to pull rather than push.” — Ludwig Josef Johann Wittgenstein (26 April 1889 – 29 April 1951)
