"I am like many of the women I have played onscreen."

--

Maureen O'Hara

“Reality exists in the human mind, and nowhere else.”
“Global interconnectedness has led to the emergence of a new political power, that of consumers and their associations. It is good for people to realize that purchasing is always a moral - and not simply economic - act.”
“We have an unknown distance yet to run, an unknown river to explore. What falls there are, we know not; what rocks beset the channel, we know not; what walls ride over the river, we know not. Ah, well! we may conjecture many things.”

“I was criticized at some level within the Republican Party by those who say government should not be in the economic development business at all. My response is that the only country I know that doesn't have an economic development plan is Papa New Guinea.”
“The problem with revenge is that it never gets what it wants; it never evens the score. Fairness never comes. The chain reaction set off by every act of vengeance always takes its unhindered course. It ties both the injured and the injurer to an escalator of pain...Why do family feuds go on and on?...the reason is simple: no two people, no two families, ever weigh pain on the same scale.”
“Forgiveness is the greatest weapon that God has given us.”
“Use the mind to direct the chi and the chi to mobilise the body.”
“...but when The Spirit speaks,â€”or beauty from the sky Descends into my being,â€”when I hear The storm-hymns of the mighty ocean roll, Or thunder sound,â€”the champion of the storm!â€” Then I feel envy for immortal words, The rush of living thought; oh! then I long To dash my feelings into deathless verse, That may administer to unborn time, And tell some lofty soul how I have lived A worshipper of Nature and of Thee!”
