Ahh the 90's I hated ye when I was in it, but I love it now that it's gone...
It is not possible to eat me without insisting that I sing praises of my devourer?
Fyodor Dostoyevsky
It seems, in fact, as though the second half of a man's life is made up of nothing, but the habits he has accumulated during the first half.

Saint Augustine

Letty Cottin Pogrebin
Sports is all about money.
Lynn Samuels
Because of their size, parents may be difficult to discipline properly.
P. J. O'Rourke
For many years, it seemed as if nothing changed in Norway. You could leave the country for three months, travel the world, through coups d'etat, assassinations, famines, massacres and tsunamis, and come home to find that the only new thing in the newspapers was the crossword puzzle.
Jo Nesbo
I love glamour and artificial beauty. I love the idea of artifice and dressing up and makeup and hair.
Dita Von Teese
The law does not pretend to punish everything that is dishonest. That would seriously interfere with business.
Clarence Darrow
Computers have become more friendly, understandable, and lots of years and thought have been put into developing software to convince people that they want and need a computer.
Roberta Williams
The way people in democracies think of the government as something different from themselves is a real handicap. And, of course, sometimes the government confirms their opinion.
Lewis Mumford
It is the false shame of fools to try to conceal wounds that have not healed.
Horace
A jest often decides matters of importance more effectual and happily than seriousness.
In the word of no master am I bound to believe.
He is armed without who is innocent within, be this thy screen, and this thy wall of brass.
One of the accidental joys of my writing life has been that I've had some lovely, surprisingly good fortune with readers, and I've brought readers to my dad's work. I can't tell you the joy that gives me. Because my father's work was masterful.
Andre Dubus III
The emphasis on the birth of Christ tends to polarize our pluralistic society and create legal and ethnic belligerence.
John Clayton
Men think about women. Women think about what men think about them.
Peter Ustinov
A few years back, when my style was 'punk grandma,' I picked up an amazing pair of sandals - orthopaedic ones, with really thick soles. I've given them away to a friend now, because these days my look is more '1980s substitute teacher gone wild.'
Beth Ditto
I imagine that yes is the only living thing.
e. e. cummings
Designers are very fickle. I never wanted to be a victim of that. You're in one minute, out the next.
Tyra Banks
There is no single development, in either technology or management technique, which by itself promises even one order-of-magnitude improvement within a decade in productivity, in reliability, in simplicity.
Frederick P. Brooks, Jr.
We chose more freedom instead of more government. We chose the principles of our founding to solve the challenges of our time. We chose a special man to lead us in a special time. We chose Mitt Romney to lead our nation.
Marco Rubio
Let's create a legal system that can work.
Sam Brownback
Consider what kind of car you get. Buy cars and other products that have the least impact environmentally.
Al Gore
We've not had one Republican president in 34 years balance the budget. You can't trust right-wing Republicans with your money. You ought to hire somebody who has balanced a budget. I'm much more conservative with money than George Bush is.
Howard Dean
I am very much opposed to abortion personally. But I don't think it is the government's rule.
Arlen Specter
To avoid ignorance and bullying, I've had to hide the fact that I'm a troll. You have no idea how much time and money I've spent on electrolysis and hair dye and reconstructive surgery so I can look like this.
Jon Cryer
The main foundations of every state, new states as well as ancient or composite ones, are good laws and good arms you cannot have good laws without good arms, and where there are good arms, good laws inevitably follow.

Dan Savage
I know but one freedom, and that is the freedom of the mind.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery

Salman Rushdie
Success breeds complacency. Complacency breeds failure. Only the paranoid survive.
Andy Grove
Commitment is a big part of what I am and what I believe. How committed are you to winning? How committed are you to being a good friend? To being trustworthy? To being successful? How committed are you to being a good father, a good teammate, a good role model? There's that moment every morning when you look in the mirror: Are you committed, or are you not?
LeBron James
We now live in a world where the only thing to have is success, but failure is marvelous. It's fertiliser, it's like living fertiliser, because you're forced on yourself.
Rupert Everett
I was fortunate to play for Pete Rose and have teammates like Ken Griffey Sr., Tony Perez and Dave Concepcion. I grew up in the game with a mature attitude. I've always known it was better to be seen and not heard.
Eric Davis
The term 'the American Left' is as near to being meaningless or nonsensical as any term could really be in politics. It isn't really a force in politics anymore. And it would do well to ask itself why that is.
Christopher Hitchens
And it was back in the mid-1980s, and as I point out in a piece, that was when we are spending about eight percent of our gross domestic product on health care.
