I ain't a killer, but don't push me
Revenge is like the sweetest joy next to gettin' pussy.

The Mississippi and its paddle boats, and the rivers of Bengal and their gleaming steamers evoked a similar atmosphere of romance, of long, song-filled voyages, high winds and lonely sunsets.
Qurratulain Hyder
I am so happy, I cannot be contained in the world;
But like a spirit, I am hidden from the eyes of the world.

For I have blossomed so much, I am the envy of the gardens.
Rumi

There is happiness in duty, although it may not seem so. To fulfill one's duty elevates the soul to a state of constant sweetness. Love is the bond between men, the way to teach and the center of the world.
José Martí

Where find a soul that does not thrill
   In Kalidasa’s verse to meet
The smooth, inevitable lines
   Like blossom-clusters, honey-sweet?
Kālidāsa
When you feel anger arising, remember to return to your breathing and follow it. The other person may see that you are practicing, and she may even apologize.
Thich Nhat Hanh
I lay my harp on the curved table,
Sitting there idly, filled only with emotions.
Why should I trouble to play?
A breeze will come and sweep the strings.
Bai Juyi
Her comments before and after Los Angeles were filled with a kind of hatred that you do not honor today and tonight.… If you took the words "white" and "black," and you reversed them, you might think David Duke was giving that speech.
Sister Souljah

When first thy pencil did these beaties give
And breathing figures learnt from thee to live
