I've had some lovely extraordinary experiences on New Year's Eve.

Maya Angelou - My mission in life is not merely to survive but to thrive and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style.

Stephen Graham Jones-Some people are born for Halloween, and some are just counting the days until Christmas.

Parker Conrad - Some days you're the fire hydrant, and some days you're the dog.

James Hetfield - I like a women who's got some balls, some strength. As long as I can beat her at arm wrestling, that's fine.

Kyrie Irving - One thing that somebody told me is that leadership is a lonely role - some people can do it, and some people can't.

Kay Redfield Jamison - In some cases, some people do get depressed in the middle of their grief, and they really need to be treated for depression.

Friedrich Nietzsche - ”There is always some madness in love. But there is also always some reason in madness.”

Anne Lamott - Your experiences will be yours alone. But truth and best friendship will rarely if ever disappoint you.

Richard Wright - We Black folk, our history, and our present being, are a mirror of all the manifold experiences of America.

Sian Clifford - Every single one of my girlfriends who's had a big breakup has gone and done some kind of makeover, including myself.

Bob Ehrlich - Some of the most important conversations I've ever had occurred at my family's dinner table.

Christopher Hitchens - I've had some dark nights of the soul, of course, but giving in to depression would be a sellout, a defeat.

Oscar Wilde- America had often been discovered before Columbus, but it had always been hushed up.

Cornelius Vanderbilt - If I had learned education I would not have had time to learn anything else.

Logic - I grew up on Section 8 housing, food stamps, welfare, and dealing with social services. I never had a Christmas. I never had a birthday.
