I said, 'Clearly, I failed as a parent.'[Larry Ellison] Quote:Our hope of immortality does not come from any religions, but nearly all religions come from that hope.[Robert G. Ingersoll] Quote:Without question, the greatest invention in the history of mankind is beer. Oh, I grant you that the wheel was also a fine invention, but the wheel does not go nearly as well with pizza.[Dave Barry] Quote:Put it before them briefly so they will read it, clearly so they will appreciate it, picturesquely so they will remember it and, above all, accurately so they will be guided by its light.[Joseph Pulitzer] Quote:The cable TV sex channels don't expand our horizons, don't make us better people and don't come in clearly enough.[Bill Maher] Quote:Action speaks louder than words but not nearly as often.[Mark Twain] Quote:Nearly every man who develops an idea works it up to the point where it looks impossible, and then he gets discouraged.

But a circle of criminals, cranks, or perverts survives in just the same way; by becoming deaf to the opinion of the outer world, by discounting it as the chatter of outsiders who 'don't understand,' of the 'conventional,' the 'bourgeois,' the 'Establishment,' of prigs, prudes, and humbugs.[C.S. Lewis] Quote:Never express yourself more clearly than you are able to think.[Niels Bohr] Quote:I have from an early age abjured the use of meat, and the time will come when men will look upon the murder of animals as they now look upon the murder of men.[Leonardo da Vinci] 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.
