I think people are attracted to The Huffington Post's blend of up-to-the-second news and thoughtful opinion, delivered with an attitude. Plus, I think they enjoy that we cover so many different things - from politics and entertainment to style and satire. There is always something interesting to read and think about - and even to laugh at.
Arianna Huffington
I wish I'd known sooner that success isn't defined by who goes the longest without vacation.
Arianna Huffington

Arianna Huffington
Be a go-giver, not a go-getter
Arianna Huffington
Liberation is an evershifting horizon, a total ideology that can never fulfill its promises.
Arianna Huffington
At the moment, our society’s notion of success is largely composed of two parts: money and power. But it’s time for a third metric, beyond money and power - one founded on well-being, wisdom, our ability to wonder, and to give back.
Arianna Huffington
A little learning is a dangerous thing. I must say that Rush Limbaugh is increasingly becoming a warning to kids of the perils of dropping out of school.
Arianna Huffington
By any sane definition of success, if you wake up in a pool of blood and nobody has shot you, you are not successful.
Arianna Huffington
America is a country ready to be taken - in fact, longing to be taken - by political leaders ready to restore democracy and trust to the political process.
Arianna Huffington
Self expression is the new entertainment, We never used to question why people sit on the couch for seven hours a day watching bad TV. Nobody ever asked, Why are they doing that for free? We need to celebrate [this desire to contribute for free] rather than question it.
