Junius
If we could read the secret history of our enemies we should find in each man's life sorrow and suffering enough to disarm all hostility.

In the long run, men hit only what they aim at. Therefore, they had better aim at something high.
Henry David Thoreau
Truth be told, ginormous portions have become a pet peeve of mine.
Hal Sparks
The point in history at which we stand is full of promise and danger. The world will either move forward toward unity and widely shared prosperity - or it will move apart.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.
There is a huge responsibility on all of us to get England through. It would be one of the biggest disasters in sports history if we blew it and we must make sure it does not happen.

The secret to being a writer is that you have to write. It's not enough to think about writing or to study literature or plan a future life as an author. You really have to lock yourself away, alone, and get to work.
Augusten Burroughs
There is danger that we lose sight of what our friend is absolutely, while considering what she is to us alone.
Nature does nothing in vain.
Aristotle
It was generally believed that Catholics were not interested in arts and science graduate schools. They weren't going to be intellectuals. And so I put the theses to the test. And they all collapsed.
Andrew Greeley

Albert Ellis
The spirit of man is more important than mere physical strength, and the spiritual fiber of a nation than its wealth.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
A film is - or should be - more like music than like fiction. It should be a progression of moods and feelings. The theme, what's behind the emotion, the meaning, all that comes later.
Stanley Kubrick
I really enjoy theater. I just went to see 'Death of a Salesman,' and it knocked me on my ass.
Jason Reitman
Something is wanting, and something must be done, or we shall be involved in all the horror of failure, and civil war without a prospect of its termination.
Henry Knox
All I try to do is as earnestly and as acutely as I can, conceive a character and try to portray this character just honestly. If the humor is within the absurdity and the awfulness of situations, then let it be seen that way.

Security is, I would say, our top priority because for all the exciting things you will be able to do with computers - organizing your lives, staying in touch with people, being creative - if we don't solve these security problems, then people will hold back.
Bill Gates
Rather be dead than cool.
Kurt Cobain
Just because you're not famous, doesn't mean you're not good.

Love is the answer to everything. It's the only reason to do anything. If you don't write stories you love, you'll never make it. If you don't write stories that other people love, you'll never make it.
Ray Bradbury
No foreigner has a place asking another people, another country, to change their constitution.
Hamid Karzai

I drink too much. The last time I gave a urine sample it had an olive in it.
Rodney Dangerfield
Truly fertile Music, the only kind that will move us, that we shall truly appreciate, will be a Music conducive to Dream, which banishes all reason and analysis. One must not wish first to understand and then to feel. Art does not tolerate Reason.
Albert Camus
