― Barack Obama

“I cannot remember the books I've read any more than the meals I have eaten; even so, they have made me.”

“I must hold in balance the sense of the futility of effort and the sense of the necessity to struggle; the conviction of the inevitability of failure and still the determination to 'succeed'-and, more than these, the contradiction between the dead hand of the past and the high intentions of the future. If I could do this through the common ills-domestic, professional and personal-then the ego would continue as an arrow shot from nothingness to nothingness with such force that only gravity would bring it to earth at last.”
― F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Crack-Up

“The winds and waves are always on the side of the ablest navigators.”
― Edward Gibbon
