I've always been interested, since graduate school, in why some children wilt and shrink back from challenges and give up in the face of obstacles, while others avidly seek challenges and become even more invested in the face of obstacles. So this has been my primary question for over 40 years.

Carol S. Dweck

Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law.

Aleister Crowley

If I've gone to the market on Saturday, and I go another time on Tuesday, then I'm really prepared. I can cook a little piece of fish; I can wilt some greens with garlic; I can slice tomatoes and put a little olive oil on. It's effortless.

Alice Waters

I am the flower child who will not wilt. You couldn't have asked for anything more.

Annie Golden

Thou wilt find rest from vain fancies if thou doest every act in life as though it were thy last.

Aristotle

You don't have to be Wilt Chamberlain to get into the Basketball Hall of Fame. If you don't have a sweet turnaround jumper from 18 feet, the best route to the Hall is fatherhood. Daniel Biasone, aka the 'father of the 24-second clock,' made the cut.

Brendan I. Koerner

A committee is organic rather than mechanical in its nature: it is not a structure but a plant. It takes root and grows, it flowers, wilts, and dies, scattering the seed from which other committees will bloom in their turn.

C. Northcote Parkinson

I have had enough of the sexist treatment of Sarah Palin... I call upon the McCain campaign to stop treating Sarah Palin like she is a delicate flower who will wilt at any moment.

Campbell Brown

I've always been interested, since graduate school, in why some children wilt and shrink back from challenges and give up in the face of obstacles, while others avidly seek challenges and become even more invested in the face of obstacles. So this has been my primary question for over 40 years.

Carol S. Dweck

O God, we praise Thee for keeping us till this day, and for the full assurance that Thou wilt never let us go.

Charles Spurgeon

My secondary schooling was at Marlborough College, Wiltshire, so I'm fond of that part of the world. It's quintessentially English, with village greens, pubs and cricket pitches, and resonates strongly with me.

Chris de Burgh

Speak the truth, do not yield to anger; give, if thou art asked for little; by these three steps thou wilt go near the gods.

Confucius

National leaders who find themselves wilting under the withering criticisms by members of the media, would do well not to take such criticism personally but to regard the media as their allies in keeping the government clean and honest, its services.

Corazon Aquino

Being able to go forward has been good, you know? I'm lucky to have that ability, to pressure guys and make them falter and wilt.

Daniel Cormier

Wilt Chamberlain lied when he said he had 20,000 women.

Dennis Rodman

My top three were Jim Brown, Wilt Chamberlain and Bo Jackson.

Dick Schaap

Arsenal are a special club for many French supporters. I watched them a lot, especially during the 'Invincible' era when they had Thierry Henry, Patrick Vieira, Sylvain Wiltord, and Robert Pires.

Dimitri Payet

I like to move around. It suits me. I grew up in Wiltshire on a farm, and that's the only place I call home.

Eliot Sumner

I am fully anticipating that something - perhaps many things - will not go according to plan on our actual wedding day. If some of the flowers are wilted, or there aren't enough vegetarian meals, or the priest calls me the wrong name, I will embrace these errors.

Ellie Kemper

If thou wilt make a man happy, add not unto his riches but take away from his desires.

Epicurus

I remember one time I wrote something very, very critical about Wilt Chamberlain. The next time I saw him - and Wilt was not a man, as huge as he was - he was not a man of confrontation. And we were in the Lakers locker room. And he sent Jerry West over, and he said, 'Frank, Wilt would like you to leave.'
