The darkest day of any man's life is when he sits down to plan how to get money without earning it.
I don't know technology and engineering. I don't know accounting.
Bernard Ebbers
I have to say, you know, I've seen so many people go through the cycle and become famous and not famous anymore and, you know, want - have their priorities change and want different things.
Rashida Jones
It is from books that wise people derive consolation in the troubles of life.
Victor Hugo
The craving for equality can express itself either as a desire to pull everyone down to our own level (by belittling them, excluding them, tripping them up) or as a desire to raise ourselves up along with everyone else (by acknowledging them, helping them, and rejoicing in their success).
Friedrich Nietzsche
An intellectual is a man who doesn't know how to park a bike.
Spiro T. Agnew
As the purse is emptied, the heart is filled.
The desire to write grows with writing.
Desiderius Erasmus
The thing under my bed waiting to grab my ankle isn't real. I know that, and I also know that if I'm careful to keep my foot under the covers, it will never be able to grab my ankle.
Stephen King
Superstition, bigotry and prejudice, ghosts though they are, cling tenaciously to life; they are shades armed with tooth and claw. They must be grappled with unceasingly, for it is a fateful part of human destiny that it is condemned to wage perpetual war against ghosts. A shade is not easily taken by the throat and destroyed.
My tastes are aristocratic, my actions democratic.
I need this wild life, this freedom.
Zane Grey
Nature abhors a vacuum, and if I can only walk with sufficient carelessness I am sure to be filled.
Henry David Thoreau
I come from a stupid family. During the Civil War my great Uncle fought for the west!
Rodney Dangerfield
There are no adequate substitutes for father, mother, and children bound together in a loving commitment to nurture and protect. No government, no matter how well-intentioned, can take the place of the family in the scheme of things.
Gerald R. Ford
My face has changed with the years and has enough history in it to give audiences something to work with.
Jeanne Moreau
Dear Alec
Cassandra Clare
I have a lot of plants and fish and a pet lizard and Venus flytraps. I have a whole ecosystem in my room, like a running waterfall and different lights and sensors set on digital timers.
Chris Pratt
How could you give me life, and take from me all the inappreciable things that raise it from the state of conscious death? Where are the graces of my soul? Where are the sentiments of my heart? What have you done, oh, Father, What have you done with the garden that should have bloomed once, in this great wilderness here? Said louisa as she touched her heart.
Charles Dickens
One describes a tale best by telling the tale. You see? The way one describes a story, to oneself or to the world, is by telling the story. It is a balancing act and it is a dream. The more accurate the map, the more it resembles the territory. The most accurate map possible would be the territory, and thus would be perfectly accurate and perfectly useless. The tale is the map that is the territory.You must remember this.
Neil Gaiman
I drive an electric car.
David Duchovny
I wanted an electric train for Christmas but I got the saxophone instead.
Clarence Clemons

Jimmy Cannon
What's in front of you is a whole world of experiences beyond your imagination. Put yourself, and your growth and development, first.
Phylicia Rashad
The Indian way of life provides the vision of the natural, real way of life. We veil ourselves with unnatural masks. On the face of India are the tender expressions which carry the mark of the Creator's hand. In the face of an Indian, you can see the natural glory of life, while we have covered ourselves with an artificial cloak.
George Bernard Shaw
Like a missing tooth, sometimes an absence is more noticeable than a presence.
Jodi Picoult
In almost every interview someone asks what does HIM stand for. I can't even remember our latest lie about that. When Hanson was hot, we said it means Hanson Is Murder. The name doesn't have a particular history. His Infernal Majesty was a totally different band. I think HIM derives from some death metal joke.
Ville Valo
Peace is not made at the council table or by treaties, but in the hearts of men.
Herbert Hoover
Baseball has the great advantage over cricket of being sooner ended.
In America today, we are nearer a final triumph over poverty than is any other land.
We have not yet reached the goal but.. we shall soon, with the help of God, be in sight of the day when poverty shall be banished from this nation.
The slogan of progress is changing from the full dinner pail to the full garage.
Beauty is harsh.
Fashion is always of the time in which you live. It is not something standing alone. But the grand problem, the most important problem, is to rejeuvenate women. To make women look young. Then their outlook changes. They feel more joyous.
Coco Chanel
Honest differences of views and honest debate are not disunity. They are the vital process of policy making among free men.
Wisdom oft times consists of knowing what to do next.
Blessed are the young for they shall inherit the national debt.
The Senator from Massachusetts has given us ample grounds to doubt the judgment and the attitude he brings to bear on vital issues of national security.
Dick Cheney
How can you come to know yourself Never by thinking, always by doing. Try to do your duty, and you'll know right away what you amount to.
