We're getting ready to take over the world. My group of girlfriends - we're renegades.
They that have grown old in a single state are generally found to be morose, fretful and captious; tenacious of their own practices and maxims; soon offended by contradiction or negligence; and impatient of any association but with those that will watch their nod, and submit themselves to unlimited authority.
Samuel Johnson

Les Brown, Live Your Dreams
We cannot banish dangers, but we can banish fears. We must not demean life by standing in awe of death.
David Sarnoff
The progress from an absolute to a limited monarchy, from a limited monarchy to a democracy, is a progress toward a true respect for the individual.
Henry David Thoreau
Fear does not have any special power unless you empower it by submitting to it.
Truth, after all, wears a different face to everybody, and it would be too tedious to wait till all were agreed.
James Russell Lowell
You have perhaps waited for years to be freed from some need. For a long, long time you have looked out from the darkness in search of the light, and have had a difficult problem in life that you have not been able to solve in spite of great efforts. And then, when the time was fulfilled and God

Food - I love nuts. I eat them all the time, they're easy to carry around, and I am never hungry all day long.

I want to give just a slight indication of the influence the book has had. I knew that , in his second novel, , published in 1935, had borrowed from for his nighttime scene in Trafalgar Square, where Deafie and Charlie and Snouter and Mr. Tallboys and The Kike and Mrs. Bendigo and the rest of the bums and losers keep up a barrage of song snatches, fractured prayers, curses, and crackpot reminiscences. But only on my most recent reading of did I discover, in the middle of the long and intricate mock-Shakespeare scene at the National Library, the line 'Go to! You spent most of it in Georgina Johnson's bed, clergyman's daughter.' So now I think Orwell quarried his title from there, too.
George Orwell
Our gifts seem so small in comparison to God

So my degree was in political science, which I think was - the closest I could come to marketing is politics.
Steve Case
So shall I fight, so shall I tread,In this long war beneath the stars;So shall a glory wreathe my head,So shall I faint and show the scars,Until this case, this clogging mould,Be smithied all to kingly gold.
John Edward Masefield, The Creed
People have to talk about something just to keep their voice boxes in working order so they'll have good voice boxes in case there's ever anything really meaningful to say.
Kurt Vonnegut
The exposed nature of life in the public square affects leaders' attitudes toward risk - and failure.
Dee Dee Myers
Drink is the curse of the land. It makes you fight with your neighbor. It makes you shoot at your landlord and it makes you miss him.
Anon., Irish Proberb
Whether they run a record company or a grocery store, every boss will tell you you're in big trouble if you're borrowing more than you can ever afford to pay back. Delaying the pain for future generations is suicidal. We've got to start getting the deficit down right now, not next year.
Simon Cowell
Of all the preposterous assumptions of humanity over humanity, nothing exceeds most of the criticisms made on the habits of the poor by the well-housed, well-warmed, and well-fed.
Herman Melville
Religion can be both good and bad - it is spirituality that counts.
Pat Buckley
A man receiving charity always hates his benefactor- it is a fixed characteristic of human nature
A little incompatibility is the spice of life, as long as he has income and she is pattable.
Ogden Nash
What is ironic is that Allen Ginsberg's importance was in its twilight for so many years that it took his death to bring it to the front page. He electrified an entire world!

My family, my parents are hippies.
Shia LaBeouf
Sometimes I think we're alone in the universe, and sometimes I think we're not. In either case, the idea is quite staggering.
I only like two kinds of men, domestic and imported.
Mae West
Odd how much it hurts when a friend moves away - and leaves behind only silence.
When you're young, with less on the line, it's easier to be audacious, to experiment. So I introduced the concerns of my generation - politics, sex, drugs, rock-and-roll, etc. - to the comics page, which for many years caused a rolling furor.
Garry Trudeau
A cat is a regency gentleman--elegant of pose, exquisite of manner, with spotless linen and an enthusiasm for bare knuckle fights, rampaging love affairs, duels by moonlight and the singing of glees. He expects immaculate service from his domestic staff, and possesses a range of invective that would make a navy blanch.
In this business, until you're known as a monster you're not a star.
Bette Davis
All the forces in the world are not so powerful as an idea whose time has come.
