I don't know about style. I know about my personal style.
I love the game, it's the greatest game on earth, that's why I can't understand all of this talk about trying to make the game better. People talk about the high strike zone and changing this and that. Why? To speed up the game? That's the beauty of baseball. There is no time element.
Eric Davis
The virtues of society are vices of the saint. The terror of reform is the discovery that we must cast away our virtues, or what we have always esteemed such, into the same pit that has consumed our grosser vices.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
A weed is a plant whose virtues have not yet been discovered.
Children love and want to be loved and they very much prefer the joy of accomplishment to the triumph of hateful failure. Do not mistake a child for his symptom.
Erik Erikson

I hate big government, but I really hate a government that doesn't work. So when 'they say we either have to raise taxes or cut core services,' it's actually a 'false choice.'
Scott Walker
The less a man thinks or knows about his virtues, the better we like him.
Hitch your wagon to a star. Let us not fag in paltry works which serve our pot and bag alone.
Do not follow where the path may lead. Go, instead, where there is no path and leave a trail.
A man's style is his mind's voice. Wooden minds, wooden voices.
A 'scream' is always just that - a noise and not music.
Carl Jung
Want is a growing giant whom the coat of Have was never large enough to cover.
The triumphs of peace have been in some proximity to war. Whilst the hand was still familiar with the sword-hilt, whilst the habits of the camp were still visible in the port and complexion of the gentleman, his intellectual power culminated; the compression and tension of these stern conditions is a training for the finest and softest arts, and can rarely be compensated in tranquil times, except by some analogous vigor drawn from occupations as hardy as war.
If they had said my writing wasn't good enough, fair enough, that's an opinion. But to say it's too complex is to insult the intelligence of the so-called young.
Tanith Lee
Our strength grows out of our weakness.
Without a rich heart, wealth is an ugly beggar.
In the history of the world, no one has ever washed a rented car.
Lawrence Summers
Wealth is in applications of mind to nature; and the art of getting rich consists not in industry, much less in saving, but in a better order, in timeliness, in being at the right spot.
A government is invigorated when each of us is willing to participate in shaping the future of this nation.
Barbara Jordan
The education of the will is the object of our existence.
I think that we're in a really amazing time, where there are really a lot of really fantastic female actresses and comedians. I imagine there's just a lot of opportunity for women to have powerful roles. Or it's just that there's more women writing TV. Women tend to maybe write strong women.
Whitney Cummings
Raphael paints wisdom; Handel sings it, Phidias carves it, Shakespeare writes it, Wren builds it, Columbus sails it, Luther preaches it, Washington arms it, Watt mechanizes it.
It's hard enough to work and raise a family when your kids are all healthy and relatively normal, but when you add on some kind of disability or disease, it can just be such a burden.
Patricia Heaton
There is a time when a man distinguishes the idea of felicity from the idea of wealth; it is the beginning of wisdom.
When a woman puts on a heel, she has a different posture, a different attitude. She really stands up and has a consciousness of her body.
Christian Louboutin
Beware what you set your heart upon. For it shall surely be yours.
Government is a trust, and the officers of the government are trustees. And both the trust and the trustees are created for the benefit of the people.
Henry Clay
I must admit, even though I'm the product of two Jewish parents, I think the Irish temper got in there somewhere, so I'm going to check Mom's genealogy.
Harvey Weinstein
If architecture is, as is sometimes said, music set in concrete, then football and basketball may be said to be creativity embodied in team sports.
Michael Mandelbaum
Such is the nature of men, that howsoever they may acknowledge many others to be more witty, or more eloquent, or more learned yet they will hardly believe there be many so wise as themselves.
Thomas Hobbes
The higher the artist, the fewer the gestures. The fewer the tools, the greater the imagination. The greater the will, the greater the secret failure.
Ben Okri
The second album was emotionally exhausting and my life felt like it had become very serious at a very young age.
Delta Goodrem
In our civilization, men are afraid that they will not be men enough and women are afraid that they might be considered only women.
Theodor Reik
He Freud often said three things were impossible to fulfill completely; healing, education, governing. He limited his goals in analytic treatment to brining the patient to the point where he could work for a living and learn to love.
The man who has never made a fool of himself in love will never be wise in love.
Even the wisest men make fools of themselves about women, and even the most foolish women are wise about men.
It takes more than driving to become an IndyCar driver. Gone are the days when drivers show up Friday morning and go home Sunday night. We're all integral to our partnerships, commercially, motorsports. We're as much champions in the boardroom as we are on the racetrack.
Charlie Kimball
Work and love; these are the basics. Without them there is neurosis.
I respect the state workers and I respect their unions, but we simply can't afford to pay benefits and pensions that are out of line with economic reality.
Andrew Cuomo
There are only two roads that lead to something like human happiness. They are marked by the words: love and achievement. In order to be happy oneself it is necessary to make at least one other person happy. The secret of human happiness is not in self-seeking but in self-forgetting.
