When making your choice in life, do not neglect to live.

Samuel Johnson Writer

Love is the wisdom of the fool and the folly of the wise.

Samuel Johnson Writer

To strive with difficulties, and to conquer them, is the highest human felicity.

Samuel Johnson Writer

But the delights of solitude don't only consist of dreaming. Next in enjoyment, I think, comes planning.

Anna Neagle Film Actress

God created the heavens and the earth, the oceans and the waves for our enjoyment. Surfing is just my way of worshipping Him.

Bethany Hamilton Surfer

I don't think 'Twilight' should be approached like 'Batman.' Because it is an invented kind of world, especially this one, I think it's got to be done with a sense of enjoyment to it I guess more than anything. So I never thought of anything as making fun of it, but kind of reveling in the melodrama of it. It's a melodrama.

Bill Condon Screenwriter

It's not about winning. It's the enjoyment of doing it - it gets your brain going.

Christopher Lasch Historian

I didn't want to stay until I had used up all the enjoyment because that's too long to stay anywhere.

Darrell Royal Football Player

Maybe it's because I'm getting older, I'm finding enjoyment in things that stop time. Just the simple act of tasting a glass of wine is its own event. You're not downing a glass of wine in the midst of doing something else.

David Hyde Pierce Actor
