Woody Durham Sayings

#1. I'm weird. I'm not too focused on the physicality of a man. They just have to become my best friend, and then I start to get attracted to them. I've never been in a bar and just hit on a guy and started kissing him; I've never done that in my life.

Ana De La Reguera

#2. Boys are more likely to develop a masculine personality and acquire strong moral standards when they have a loving and nurturant rather than a threatening or fear-inspiring father.

James Q. Wilson

#3. Out of the frying pan and into the fire. Chaos begets chaos. Instability begets instability.

J.D. Vance

#4. The law of nature instructs most animals to cherish and educate their infant progeny. The law of reason inculcates to the human species the returns of filial piety.

Edward Gibbon

#5. We shun the rugged battle of fate where strength is born.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

#6. I'm stuck. I'm stuck in yesterday, and you're tomorrow.

Rebecca Donovan

#7. Children seem to need, then, a delicate balance between the realistic and the fantastic in their art; enough of the realistic to know that the story matters, enough of the fantastic to make what matters wonderful

Eric S. Rabkin

#8. You cannot stop trusting people in life but I have learned to be a little bit careful. The way to make people trust-worthy is to trust them.

Ernest Hemingway,

#9. Men, to act with vigour and effect, must have time to mature measures, and judgment and experience, as to the best method of applying them. They must not be hurried on to their conclusions by the passions, or the fears of the multitude. They must deliberate, as well as resolve.

Joseph Story

#10. Uncertainty is more contagious than the plague. Cesare,

Sarah Dunant

#11. I can't please everybody and I don't try to. If I can please myself that's enough. For the rest, I just hope for the best.
