― Mae West West is one of the most badass starlets of the early 1900s. Among her accomplishments in film working with Cary grant and Duke Ellington, she had a quick wit and was well known for her double entendres, on and off stage.
― Robert Frost The American poet who is responsible for winning our hearts in The Outsiders (Think: Ponyboy) with his poem “Nothing Gold Can Stay” suffered a great deal of depression throughout a troubled life. Still, his creative genius shone through, inspiring generations of readers and poetry-lovers all over.
― Friedrich Nietzsche The mantra to live by. Heard for the umpteenth time, this little nugget of encouragement could encourage one to hate Nietzsche for creating such a cliche. But, I digress. He was a renowned philosopher who challenged Christian norms and believed in humanity.
― Eleanor Roosevelt Forget Baz Lahurmann’s “Everybody’s Free to Wear Sunscreen”, (which, by the way, was originally written by American journalist Mary Schmich). Mrs. Roosevelt, wife of Franklin D.

― Confucius “Confucius say” is usually how it starts out, but the one has been repeated time and time again by countless financially successful folks, making us poor minions really, really hate our jobs.
― Audrey Hepburn The timelessly fashionable actress and humanitarian is rarely credited for tis little gem. One of the queens of quotes, she knew a great deal about life, love, and everything in-between.
Than never to have loved at all.” ― Alfred Tennyson, In Memoriam I’ll be honest, as a lover of literature, I thought that this quote was straight Shakespeare. To my, and probably your, disappointment it was from some Poet Laureate of the United Kingdom during Queen Victoria’s reign. *sigh*
― Plato There has been a rash of thought-provoking photos laden with this quote on social media lately, but who knew it was the words of Plato. Wondering how he felt about not being properly cited for this quote, I decided to investigate. He was unavailable for questioning.
