There comes a time when people get tired of being pushed out of the glittering sunlight of life's July and left standing amid the piercing chill of an alpine November.
My last trip to New Orleans was for the fifth anniversary of Katrina, and I had the awesome opportunity to bring my family down. We all worked on a house together and met some of the families.

The bigger the real-life problems, the greater the tendency for the discipline to retreat into a reassuring fantasy-land of abstract theory and technical manipulation.
Tom Naylor
A thing is not vulgar merely because it is common
William Nazlitt
Work ethic has always been stressed in my family. My dad is going to be 80 years old and he still works part time. My mom just retired a couple years ago and she's in her mid- to late 70s.
Jamie Moyer
The problems of society will also be the problems of the predominant language of that society. It is the carrier of its perceptions, its attitudes, and its goals, for through it, the speakers absorb entrenched attitudes. The guilt of English then must be recognized and appreciated before its continued use can be advocated.
Njabulo Ndebele
More negatives write than call. It's a cheap shot for me to go on the air with the critical letters or E-mail I get because the reaction of the listeners is always an instantaneous expression of sympathy for me and contempt for the poor critic.
John Hall
A certain amount of opposition is a great help to a man. Kites rise against, not with, the wind.
John Neal
I think you can't really escape any kind of spiritual education as a child, whether it's New Age or Judaism or Buddhism or whatever it is. You can't escape it, even if you completely disagree with it, you still have it as a foundation that you base things off of.
Jack White
The growth of affluence, the growth of education, has led to a shortage of morons.
Leonard Neal
Imagination is the true magic carpet.
Norman Vincent Peale
I spent well over a year on the road with Sarah Vaughn. That was amazing.
Jan Hammer
A master can tell you what he expects of you. A teacher, though, awakens your own expectations.
Patricia Neal
A new poll showed that if the election was held today, people would be confused because it is normally held in November.
Kevin Nealon
Sound is the vocabulary of nature.
Pierre Schaeffer
Where love and wisdom drink out of the same cup, in this everyday world, it is the exception.
Madame Neckar
My wife gets pampered pretty well. She's had me trained since she was pregnant, when I started making her oatmeal with fresh berries every morning.
Michael Weatherly
Not by gain our life is measured, But by what we've lost 'Tis scored; 'Tis not how much wine is drunken But how much has been outpoured. For the strength of love never standeth In the sacrifice we bear; He who has the greatest suffering Ever has the most to share.
Watchman Nee
It is our experience that political leaders do not always mean the opposite of what they say.
Abba Eban
People who are brutally honest get more satisfaction out of the brutality than out of the honesty.
Richard J. Needham
I used to look down on the world for being corrupt, but now I adore it for the utter magnificence of that corruption.
In Los Angeles, it's like they jog for two hours a day and then they think they're morally right. That's when you want to choke people, you know?
Liam Neeson
Hollywood has gone from Pola to Polaroid.
Pola Negri
Of all the species of literary composition, perhaps biography is the most delightful. The attention concentrated on one individual gives a unity to the materials of which it is composed, which is wanting in general history.
Robert Hall
Hardship and opposition are the native soil of manhood and self-reliance.
John Neil
If you have not often felt the joy of doing a kind act, you have neglected much, and most of all yourself.

The simple joy of taking an idea into one's own hands and giving it proper form, that's exciting.
George Nelson
Until justice is blind to color, until education is unaware of race, until opportunity is unconcerned with the color of men's skins, emancipation will be a proclamation but not a fact.
Lyndon B. Johnson
I could not tread these perilous paths in safety, if I did not keep a saving sense of humor.
Lord Nelson
I owe all my success in life to having been always a quarter of an hour before my time.
God joins us together by means of the body, in consequence of the laws of the communication of movements. He affects us with the same feelings in consequence of the laws of the conjunction of body and soul.
Nicolas Malebranche
I have always been a quarter of an hour before my time, and it has made a man of me.
Women's battle for financial equality has barely been joined, much less won. Society still traditionally assigns to woman the role of money-handler rather than money-maker, and our assigned specialty is far more likely to be home economics than financial economics.
Paula Nelson
If we ask a vague question, such as, 'What is poetry?' we expect a vague answer, such as, 'Poetry is the music of words,' or 'Poetry is the linguistic correction of disorder.'
A. R. Ammons
Americans want action for their money. They are fascinated by its self-reproducing qualities if it's put to work. Gold-hoarding goes against the American grain; it fits in better with European pessimism than with America's traditional optimism.
I took my courage in both hands and went to the Laundromat to do my washing. I had to use three machines.
Julie Doucet
The best business plans are straightforward documents that spell out the who, what, where, why, and how much...
