Gordie Howe
After all, to the well-organized mind, death is but the next great adventure.
J.K. Rowling
You find that you have peace of mind and can enjoy yourself, get more sleep, and rest when you know that it was a one hundred percent effort that you gave -- win or lose.
We've got to win this battle, and we will. We have to win the peace.
Al D'Amato

Friedrich Nietzsche
The only way of living in a free society is to feel that you have the right to say and do stuff.
Salman Rushdie
When you catch an adjective, kill it. No, I don't mean utterly, but kill most of them--then the rest will be valuable. They weaken when they are close together. They give strength when they are far apart.
Mark Twain
Man, I don't want to have nothing to do with computers. I don't want the government in my business.
Erykah Badu

Francois de La Rochefoucauld

Ayn Rand
Let's hope brands recognize that the true power of this technology is not its reach but its ability to communicate substance that adds meaning to our lives. Otherwise, brands will be investing in technology that consumers simply won't buy.
Simon Mainwaring
His wit and irony - particularly when he uses them to condemn superstition - are inimitable
Bertrand Russell
I just think it would be unrealistic to suggest we're going to eliminate every last domestic insurgent in Afghanistan. Certainly, the history of the country would indicate that's not a very realistic objective, and I think we have to have realistic objectives.
Stephen Harper
People often pulled into Scientology want to address personal problems in their life, and Scientology says we have technology that addresses these kinds of problems. Just focusing on the problems and trying to remedy them can be helpful.
Lawrence Wright

Richard Dawkins
My mom is always telling me it takes a long time to get to the top, but a short time to get to the bottom.

Kenneth L. Pike
I had the classic 40 meltdown. I did. It's embarrassing. It was pretty funny. But then I recovered. To me, it was like a second adolescence. Hormonally, my body was changing, my mind was changing, and so my relationship to myself and the world around me came to this assault of finiteness.
Keanu Reeves
One does silly things when one is twelve.
Cassandra Clare
Timid people always reek their peevishness on the gentle.
George Eliot
I never had the high-paying job or the company car. It took me over a decade to pay off my student loans. I never had to worry about where to dock my yacht to reduce my taxes.
Christine O'Donnell
Man never legislates, but destinies and accidents, happening in all sorts of ways, legislate in all sorts of ways.

Jeff Miller
Death can't be so bad if mom went through it. It makes it easier for the child to follow.

Golda Meir
And write what you love - don't feel pressured to write serious prose if what you like is to be funny.
I was uncomfortable enough. I was very uncomfortable, I may say unhappy.
