“One of the truest tests of integrity is its blunt refusal to be compromised.”
Chinua Achebe
“Truth is a point, the subtlest and finest; harder than adamant; never to be broken, worn away or blunted. Its only bad quality is, that it is sure to hurt those who touch it; and likely to draw blood, perhaps the life blood of those who press earnestly upon it.”
Walter Savage Landor
“To put it bluntly, I seem to have a whole superstructure with no foundation. But I'm working on the foundation.”
Marilyn Monroe
“There comes a time when you have to stand up and shout:This is me damn it! I look the way I look, think the way I think, feel the way I feel, love the way I love! I am a whole complex package. Take me... or leave me. Accept me - or walk away! Do not try to make me feel like less of a person, just because I don't fit your idea of who I should be and don't try to change me to fit your mold. If I need to change, I alone will make that decision.When you are strong enough to love yourself 100%, good and bad - you will be amazed at the opportunities that life presents you.”
Stacey Charter
“How do you do, Miss West? Mae West: How do you do what?”
