I think Charley Pride has been one of the best things to happen to country music, to prove it belongs to everybody.
Loretta Lynn

Annie Lennox

I write for no other purpose than to add to the beauty that now belongs to me. I write a book for no other reason than to add three or four hundred acres to my magnificent estate.
Jack London

I wrote that song for my wife, and it's what some guy who's sitting under a tree would be singing to the woman of his life, telling her how wonderful she is. To me, that's more lasting than something that sounds like it belongs on a movie soundtrack.

Thorstein Veblen

In the end, nature is inexorable: it has no reason to hurry and, sooner or later, it takes what belongs to it. Unconsciously and inflexibly obedient to its own laws, it doesn't know art, just as it doesn't know freedom, just as it doesn't know goodness.
Ivan Turgenev

It belongs to human nature to hate those you have injured.
Tacitus

It belongs to the imperfection of everything human that man can only attain his desire by passing through its opposite.
