Change happens by listening and then starting a dialogue with the people who are doing something you don't believe is right.: Jane Goodall (1934 - )
I like the night. Without the dark, we'd never see the stars.: Stephenie Meyer, Twilight, 2005

The trouble with lies was that once started, the fiction had to be continued, and it was hard always to be remembering details that you had made up upon the spur of the moment.: Elizabeth Aston, The True Darcy Spirit, 2006
It is all very well, when the pen flows, but then there are the dark days when imagination deserts one, and it is an effort to put anything down on paper. That little you have achieved stares at you at the end of the day, and you know the next morning you will have to scrape it down and start again.: Elizabeth Aston, The True Darcy Spirit, 2006

Sometimes the joys of our youth do not translate to joys in adulthood and it’s hard to release them.: Laura Moncur (1969 - ), Starling Fitness, 07-23-08
Existence is random. Has no pattern save what we imagine after staring at it for too long. No meaning save what we choose to impose.: Alan Moore (1953 - ), Watchmen, 1986
I will never forget who this victory truly belongs to. It belongs to you. It belongs to you. I was never the likeliest candidate for this office. We didn't start with much money or many endorsements. Our campaign was not hatched in the halls of Washington. It began in the backyards of Des Moines and the living rooms of Concord and the front porches of Charleston. It was built by working men and women who dug into what little savings they had to give $5 and $10 and $20 to the cause.: Barack Obama (1961 - ), Election Night Speech in Chicago, 11-04-08
There's new energy to harness, new jobs to be created, new schools to build, and threats to meet, alliances to repair. The road ahead will be long. Our climb will be steep. We may not get there in one year or even in one term. But, America, I have never been more hopeful than I am tonight that we will get there. I promise you, we as a people will get there. There will be setbacks and false starts. There are many who won't agree with every decision or policy I make as president. And we know the government can't solve every problem. But I will always be honest with you about the challenges we face. I will listen to you, especially when we disagree. And, above all, I will ask you to join in the work of remaking this nation, the only way it's been done in America for 221 years — block by block, brick by brick, calloused hand by calloused hand.: Barack Obama (1961 - ), Election Night Speech in Chicago, 11-04-08
That's what building a body of work is all about. It's about the daily labor, the many individual acts, the choices large and small that add up over time, over a lifetime to a lasting legacy. It's about not being satisfied with the latest achievement, the latest gold star, because the one thing I know about a body of work is that it's never finished. It's cumulative. It deepens and expands with each day you give your best. You may have setbacks and you may have failures, but you're not done. You haven't even started.: Barack Obama (1961 - ), Arizona State Commencement Speech, 2009
- More quotations on: [Success]
I know starting careers in troubled times is a challenge, but it is also a privilege. Because it's moments like these that force us to try harder, dig deeper and to discover gifts we never knew we had. To find the greatness that lies within each of us. So don't ever shy away from that endeavor. Don't stop adding to your body of work. I can promise that you will be the better for that continued effort as will be this nation that we all love.: Barack Obama (1961 - ), Arizona State Commencement Speech, 2009
- More quotations on: [America]
