Conan O'Brien
“If you work really hard, and you're kind, amazing things will happen.”
― Conan O'Brien

Wendy Cope
“Bloody men are like bloody buses —
You wait for about a year
And as soon as one approaches your stop
Two or three others appear.

You look at them flashing their indicators,
Offering you a ride.
You’re trying to read the destinations,
You haven’t much time to decide.

If you make a mistake, there is no turning back.
Jump off, and you’ll stand there and gaze
While the cars and the taxis and lorries go by
And the minutes, the hours, the days.”
― Wendy Cope, Serious Concerns

Jack Prelutsky
“The BALLPOINT PENGUINS, black and white,
Do little else but write and write.
Although they've nothing much to say,
They write and write it anyway....”
― Jack Prelutsky, Behold the Bold Umbrellaphant and Other Poems

Chögyam Trungpa
“Everyone loves something, even if it's only tortillas.”
― Chogyam Trungpa

E.E. Cummings
“Trust your heart if the seas catch fire, live by love though the stars walk backward.”
― E.E. Cummings
