I bought some instant water one time but I didn't know what to add to it.
I want to stay away from politics, or else I'll probably end up putting my size fifteen foot into my mouth.
Peter Steele
There are lots of people who mistake their imagination for their memory.
Josh Billings
A text of Tibetan Buddhism describes the time of death as a unique opportunity for spiritual liberation from the cycles of death and rebirth and a period that determines our next incarnation.
Stanislav Grof
I love short trips to New York; to me it is the finest three-day town on earth.
James Cameron
I had a great first year and Mr. MacDonald was my biggest supporter. He gave me the encouragement I needed that first year to get my career started on a positive note.
Jim Evans
Auto racing is boring except when a car is going at least 172 miles per hour upside down.
Dave Barry
I guess if you take yourself seriously as an artist there starts either the problem or the beauty of doing good artwork.
Bill Griffith
I want to be perceived as a guy who played his best in all facets, not just scoring. A guy who loved challenges.
Michael Jordan
Even celebrities, most people have a sense of humor. Most of the people we meet who we've done on the show, like it.
Matt Stone
It was really amazing. I mean, he'd never mentioned that he played in the symphony, like serious violin playing, not fiddle playing. And he just blew us away.
Guy Clark
I would not send a poor girl into the world, ignorant of the snares that beset her path nor would I watch and guard her, till, deprived of self-respect and self-reliance, she lost the power or the will to watch and guard herself .
Anne Bronte
Stupid as a man, say the women: cowardly as a woman, say the men. Stupidity in a woman is unwomanly.
Friedrich Nietzsche
To refrain from imitation is the best revenge.
Marcus Aurelius
Death does not concern us, because as long as we exist, death is not here. And when it does come, we no longer exist.
Epicurus
For life and death are one, even as the river and the sea are one.
Khalil Gibran
Does wisdom perhaps appear on the earth as a raven which is inspired by the smell of carrion?
Just because you are CEO, don't think you have landed. You must continually increase your learning, the way you think, and the way you approach the organization. I've never forgotten that.
Indra Nooyi
With fame, you can't trust everybody. You can't depend on them being there for you as a person. They will only be there because of what you've got you as a person. They will only be there because of what you've got and what you can bring to their life. It's not a relationship-it's a leech.
Chris Brown
World reform is personal reform.
RúhÃyyih Rabbani
I love really good food and I don't ever want to spend too much for it, but I like hanging out and having really good, tasty, interesting food.
Kris Allen
We need to bridge the gap between the medical libraries and the hospital rooms take the information out there already, add to it, focus it, harness it - and bring it to the patient who was just diagnosed today.
Bruce Vento
Guilt or innocence becomes irrelevant in the criminal trial as we flounder in a morass of artificial rules poorly conceived and often impossible of application.
Warren Earl Burger, Frazier v. U
The new strategy is to teach intelligent design without calling it intelligent design.
Kenneth R. Miller
Battles, in these ages, are transacted by mechanism; with the slightest possible development of human individuality or spontaneity; men now even die, and kill one another, in an artificial manner.
Thomas Carlyle, History of the F
Now nature is not at variance with art, nor art with nature; they being both the servants of his providence. Art is the perfection of nature. Were the world now as it was the sixth day, there were yet a chaos. Nature hath made one world, and art another. In brief, all things are artificial; for nature is the art of God.
Sir Thomas Browne
Dictionaries are like watches, the worst is better than none and the best cannot be expected to go quite true.
Samuel Johnson
For a long time then, I reflected on this confusion in the astronomical traditions concerning the derivation of the motions of the universe's spheres. I began to be annoyed that the movements of the world machine, created for our sake by the best and most systematic Artisan of all, were not understood with greater certainty by the philosophers, who otherwise examined so precisely the most insignificant trifles of this world. For this reason I undertook the task of rereading the works of all the philosophers which I could obtain to learn whether anyone had ever proposed other motions of the universe's spheres than those expounded by the teachers of astronomy in the schools. And in fact I found in Cicero that Hicetas supposed the earth to move. Later I also discovered in Plutarch that certain others were of this opinion. . . . Therefore, having obtained the opportunity from these sources, I too began to consider the mobility of the earth.
Nicholas Copernicus
There are two motives for reading a book: one, that you enjoy it; the other, that you can boast about it.
Bertrand Russell
Sometimes I make very selfish choices like I did 'Once Upon A Time' for my inner 8-year-old and my hypothetical future child. I've done some movies because I would regret them if I didn't, but other projects I've done because they've scared me or if I felt I needed to do a big romantic comedy to help me professionally.
Ginnifer Goodwin
Between the years of ninety-two and a hundred and two, however, we shall be the ribald, useless, drunken, outcast person we have always wished to be. We shall have a long white beard and long white hair; we shall not walk at all, but recline in a wheel chair and bellow for alcoholic beverages; in the winter we shall sit before the fire with our feet in a bucket of hot water, a decanter of corn whiskey near at hand, and write ribald songs against organized society... We look forward to a disreputable, vigorous, unhonoured, and disorderly old age.
Don Marquis, The Almost Perfect
I don't see women and think of them as competition or with judgment. Women really move me. I feel connected to all kinds of women. I am angry because I think we've been mistreated throughout history in different countries, including America. I admire women.
Salma Hayek
Agitators are a set of interfering, meddling people, who come down to some perfectly contented class of the community and sow the seeds of discontent amongst them. That is the reason why agitators are so absolutely necessary. Without them, in our incomplete state, there would be no advance towards civilization.
Oscar Wilde
A bird perched on a branch is never afraid of the branch breaking. Her trust is in her wings.
Anonymous
Loss leaves us empty - but learn not to close your heart and mind in grief. Allow life to replenish you. When sorrow comes it seems impossible - but new joys wait to fill the void.
Pam Brown
And secondly, I would impose a significant state landfill tipping fee and use that tipping fee to fund the billion dollar bond issue that I want to create to produce the funds for all of the environmental challenges that we just went over.
Ed Rendell
Television it will keep your a-s wishin' forever.
Ice Cube
I'm proud of all your achievement. You've worked hard for them. I'm proud of your looks and your intelligence - which some far distant ancestor handed down. But I'm most proud of your being just you. 'Success' would be an extra - but you are special to me whatever you do.
A healthy male adult bore consumes each year one and a half times his own weight in other people's patience.
John Updike, Confessions of a Wi
I was up watching Meet Joe Black at four AM. I was hoping Brad Pitt would die, and he was still alive at seven forty in the morning! I actually felt sorry for once, for critics.
Rose McGowan
Nature, to be commanded, must be obeyed.
