Most of God's children are, in fact, barely presentable.[Fran Lebowitz] Quote:There are people who strictly deprive themselves of each and every eatable, drinkable, and smokable which has in any way acquired a shady reputation. They pay this price for health. And health is all they get for it. How strange it is. It is like paying out your whole fortune for a cow that has gone dry.[Mark Twain] Quote:Duties are not performed for duty's sake, but because their neglect would make the man uncomfortable.

Wells] Quote:Gandhi was inevitable. If humanity is to progress, Gandhi is inescapable. He lived, thought and acted, inspired by the vision of humanity evolving toward a world of peace and harmony. We may ignore Gandhi at our own risk.[Martin Luther King Jr.] Quote:If we work upon marble, it will perish; if we work upon brass, time will efface it; if we rear temples, they will crumble into dust; but if we work upon immortal minds and instill into them just principles, we are then engraving that upon tablets which no time will efface, but will brighten and brighten to all eternity.[Daniel Webster] Quote:I'm at an age where I think more about food than sex.

The sum of their fears.[Winston Churchill] Quote:I have always thought of Christmas time as a good time. A kind, forgiving, charitable, pleasant time. The only time I know of, in the long calendar of the year, when men and women seem by one consent to open their shut-up hearts freely.[Charles Dickens] Quote:Nearly all marriages, even happy ones, are mistakes: in the sense that almost certainly (in a more perfect world, or even with a little more care in this very imperfect one) both partners might be found more suitable mates.

Tolkien] Quote:Wedding: a ceremony at which two persons undertake to become one, one undertakes to become nothing, and nothing undertakes to become supportable.[Ambrose Bierce] Quote:But the body is deeper than the soul and its secrets inscrutable.

Kennedy] Quote:They're slobbery and they're whiney and they look at you just like they could see right into your soul and they're unpredictable and the smell and they're noisy and the world revolves around them and why!? I don't get it. They're not interesting. They can't tell jokes, they don't have opinions, and they're boring, you know? They're just boring and annoying and I don't want to have one. [Barbara Hall] Quote:Wildness. We're running out of it, even up in Alaska. People need to be reminded that the world is unsafe and unpredictable, and at a moment's notice, they could lose everything, like that. I do it to remind them that chaos is always out there, lurking beyond the horizon. That, plus, sometimes you have to do something bad, just to know you're alive. [David Assael] Quote:If men would consider not so much wherein they differ, as wherein they agree, there would be far less of uncharitableness and angry feeling.

[Aristotle] Quote:Honesty is a good thing, but it is not profitable to its possessor unless it is kept under control. [Don Marquis] Quote:Sometimes when we are generous in small, barely detectable ways it can change someone else's life forever. [Margaret Cho] Quote:Men fear thought as they fear nothing else on earth -- more than ruin -- more even than death.... Thought is subversive and revolutionary, destructive and terrible, thought is merciless to privilege, established institutions, and comfortable habit. Thought looks into the pit of hell and is not afraid. Thought is great and swift and free, the light of the world, and the chief glory of man.
