Robert Staughton Lynd
Faith is power to believe and power to see...
Prentice Mulford
Every blessing ignored becomes a curse.
Paulo Coelho
Lidia Bastianich, sorry, but kind of boring. I mean, I love Lidia, but you can fall asleep watching her. And Mario Batali? I love Mario to death... but he's not romantic or sensual. Those are the things I bring to the table.
Giada De Laurentiis
Having a family is like having a bowling alley installed in your brain.
Martin Mull

Jonah-John-if I had been a Sam, I would have been a Jonah still-not because I have been unlucky for others, but because somebody or something has compelled me to be certain places, at certain times, without fail.

Oh the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person, having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but pouring them all right out, just as they are -- chaff and grain together -- certain that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and with the breath of kindness blow the rest away

But for a guy who watched John Wayne movies and grew up in Iowa, it's a sterling compliment.
Dermot Mulroney
