If you think practicing what you preach is rough, just try preaching what you practice.
Bowen Baxter
It appeared to the Elders that the people here would believe anything about themselves, no matter how preposterous, as long as it was flattering. To make sure of this, they performed an experiment. They put the idea into Earthlings' heads that the whole Universe had been created by one big animal who looked just like them. He sat on a throne with a lot of less fancy thrones all around him. When people died they got to sit on those other thrones forever because they were such close relatives of the Creator.The people down here just ate that up!
Kurt Vonnegut
I preached as never sure to preach again, and as a dying man to dying men.

In the US we find the label requirements are crazy. It is almost as if we had to label a bookcase with the warning 'do not eat this bookcase -- it can be harmful to your health'.
Bjorn Bayley
The average session takes about one to two hours. It's totally amazing because when a person breathes, they go through one stage of relaxation after another, and every stage releases tension.
Leonard Orr
Death is the great adventure beside which moon landings and space trips pale into insignificance.
Joseph Bayly
Death always waits. The door of the hearse is never closed.
If you wake up deciding what you want to give versus what you're going to get, you become a more successful person. In other words, if you want to make money, you have to help someone else make money.
Russell Simmons
And if it's proud to have a heart that never hardens, and a temper that never tires, and a touch that never hurts, Miss Jenny struck in, flushed, she is proud.
Charles Dickens
Most plans are just inaccurate predictions.
Ben Bayol
If you want to give a man credit, put it in writing. If you want to give him hell, do it on the phone.
Charles Beacham
Liberation from the tyranny of the body contributes to greatness, but just as much to greatness in sin as to greatness in virtue.
Bertrand Russell
Half the work that is done in this world is to make things appear what they are not.
E. R. Beadle
Everybody in America is soft, and hates conflict. The cure for this, both in politics and social life, is the same - hardihood. Give them raw truth.
John Jay Chapman
Love thy neighbor as thyself, but choose your neighborhood.
Louise Beal
Emerson said that music helps people to find the greatness in their souls. The same can be said about any form of art.
Leo Tolstoy
Organic architecture seeks superior sense of use and a finer sense of comfort, expressed in organic simplicity.
Frank Lloyd Wright
Too many photographers try too hard. They try to lift photography into the realm of Art, because they have an inferiority complex about their Craft. You and I would see more interesting photography if they would stop worrying, and instead, apply horse-sense to the problem of recording the look and feel of their own era.
Jessie Tarbox Beals
I think it's a style of acting that you trust. You trust the instincts.
Jeff Daniels
If you want to be a writer, you must do two things above all others: read a lot and write a lot. There's no way around these two things that I'm aware of, no shortcut.
Stephen King
Whatever you do, don't do it halfway.
Bob Beamon
Government is dysfunctional.
Michael Bloomberg
Spel chekers, hoo neeeds em?
Alan James Bean
Reality, in fact, is always something you couldn't have guessed. That's one of the reasons I believe Christianity. It's a religion you couldn't have guessed.
C.S. Lewis
No sale is really complete until the product is worn out, and the customer is satisfied.
L.L. Bean
When we cannot hope to win, it is an advantage to yield.
Quintilian
Above all, we wish to avoid having a dissatisfied customer. We consider our customers a part of our organization, and we want them to feel free to make any criticism they see fit in regard to our merchandise or service. Sell practical, tested merchandise at reasonable profit, treat your customers like human beings -- and they will always come back.
What Churchill described as the twin marauders of war and tyranny have been almost entirely banished from our continent. Today, hundreds of millions dwell in freedom, from the Baltic to the Adriatic, from the Western Approaches to the Aegean.
David Cameron
A gourmet who thinks of calories is like a tart, who looks at her watch.
James Beard
Law is mighty, mightier necessity.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
I don't hate women - they just sometimes make me mad.
Eminem
No language is rude that can boast polite writers.
Aubrey Beardsley
I have very high expectations of myself. I'm a very competitive person but competitive with myself. I want to be the best that I can be and if that means that I'm eventually better than everyone else then so be it.
Wentworth Miller
The existence of insignificant people has very important consequences in the world. It can be shown to affect the price of bread and the rate of wages, to call forth many evil tempers from the selfish and many heroisms from the sympathetic, and, in other ways, to play no small part in the tragedy of life.
George Eliot
In the present age, alas! our pens are ravished by unlettered authors and unmannered critics, that make a havoc rather than a building, a wilderness rather than a garden. But, a lack! what boots it to drop tears upon the preterit?
