Famous Quotes & Sayings

Thomas Hobbes

We are not to renounce our senses and experience, nor (that which is the undoubted Word of God) our natural Reason. For they are the talents which he hath put into our hands to negotiate, till the coming again of our blessed savior, and therefore not to be folded up in the napkin of an implicate faith, but employed in the purchase of justice, peace, and true religion. For though there be many things in God's Word above Reason--that is to say, which cannot by natural reason be either demonstrated or confuted--yet there is nothing contrary to it.

Steven Moffat

Everybody knows that everybody dies. But not every day. Not today. Some days are special. Some days are so, so blessed. Some days, nobody dies at all.

Taylor Lautner

I was viewed as a little bit of an outcast. I didn't have one group of friends who I hung out with every single day.

The normal thing is to be ina group or be part of a clique. But for me, I love hanging out with different people and just having fun.
