Inferiors revolt in order that they may be equal and equals that they may be superior. Such is the state of mind which creates revolutions.
My evening visitors, if they cannot see the clock, should find the time in my face.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
There is no religion in which everyday life is not considered a prison there is no philosophy or ideology that does not think that we live in alienation.
Eugene Ionesco
That's what the Romney plan is all about, how to get jobs created, how to get this debt and deficit under control, how to revive small businesses so we can create jobs, and how to bring growth and opportunity to society instead of this class warfare, instead of speaking to people like they're stuck in some class or station in life.

Suze Orman
A man devoid of hope and conscious of being so has ceased to belong to the future.
Albert Camus
With Stacy, it was interesting because you know he was within all this chaos, all these different lives that were so broken and so much anger and so much frustration and their skating came out of that, their different styles came out of that.
John Robinson
Religion, it is true, still possesses the huge if cumbersome and unwieldy advantage of having come first.
Christopher Hitchens
If only [people] understood that every thought is both false and true! False by one-sidenedness resulting from man's inability to embrace the whole truth, and true as an expression of one fact of human endeavor.
Leo Tolstoy
On the one hand, the idea of marriage and the sort of traditional family life repulses me. But on the other hand, I long for it, you know what I mean? I'm constantly in conflict with things. And it is because of my past and my upbringing and the journey that I've been on.
Madonna Ciccone
It is money, money, money! Not ideas, not principles, but money that reigns supreme in American politics.
Robert Byrd
If the world were a logical place, men would ride side saddle.
Rita Mae Brown
And under the existing circumstances, I understand there are situations where people indeed need care and need services, but I believe in America that the majority of those people are getting those services under situations and circumstances that are afforded to them by their health care providers and their state government.
Jan Brewer
Wars are Spinach. Life in general is the tough part. In war all you have to do is not worry and know how to read a map and co-ordinates.
Ernest Hemingway
In Australia, not reading poetry is the national pastime.
Phyllis McGinley
There was no gleam, no shadow, for the heavens, too, were one still, pale cloud; no sound or motion in anything but the dark river that flowed and moaned like an unresting sorrow.
George Eliot
Writing itself is a bad enough trade, rightly held up to ridicule and contempt by the greater part of mankind, and especially by those who do real work, plowing, riding, sailing
Hilaire Belloc
I'm glad I did it, partly because it was worth it, but mostly because I shall never have to do it again
Mark Twain
Africa for the Africans... at home and abroad!
Marcus Garvey
Matilda told such dreadful lies,It made one gasp and stretch one's eyes;Her aunt, who from her earliest youth,Had kept a strict regard for truth,Attempted to believe Matilda:The effort very nearly killed her.
Hilaire Belloc, Cautionary Tales
The Rich arrived in pairsAnd also in Rolls Royces;They talked of their affairsIn loud and strident voices...The Poor arrived in Fords,Whose features they resembled;They laughed to see so many LordsAnd Ladies all assembled.The People in BetweenLooked underdone and harassed,And our of place and mean,And Horribly embarrassed.
Hilaire Belloc, The Garden Party
The last Christian died on the cross
Friedrich Nietzsche
It's correct that I wanted health reform to do more to create choices and promote competition.
Ron Wyden
I shoot the HippopotamusWith bullets made of platinum,Because if I use leaden onesHis hide is sure to flatten 'em.
Those who do not weep, do not see.
Victor Hugo
When you say 'design,' everybody thinks of magazine pages. So it's an emotive word. Everybody thinks it's how something looks, whereas for me, design is pretty much everything.
James Dyson
Male bashing is everywhere. It would be a mistake to view the current situation as another skirmish in the war between the sexes. Women have been doing the shooting, and men have been burying their heads in the sand, hoping the bullets will miss.
Warren Farrell
We kill everybody, my dear. Some with bullets, some with words, and everybody with our deeds. We drive people into their graves, and neither see it nor feel it.

Rob Sheffield
My God! The English language is a form of communication! Conversation isn't just crossfire where you shoot and get shot at! Where you've got to duck for your life and aim to kill! Words aren't only bombs and bullets -- no, they're little gifts, containing meanings!
Philip Roth
Resignation is the courage of Christian sorrow.
Alexandre Vinet
In America all too few blows are struck into flesh. We kill the spirit here, we are experts at that. We use psychic bullets and kill each other cell by cell.
Norman Mailer
I'm developing a record company. I'm learning how to supervise music on a film.
Carson Daly
Whiskey has killed more men than bullets, but most men would rather be full of whiskey than bullets.
Logan Pearsall Smith
Great artistic talent in any direction... is hardly inherent to the man. It comes and goes; it is often possessed only for a short phase in his life; it hardly ever colors his character as a whole and has nothing to do with the moral and intellectual stuff of the mind and soul. Many great artists, perhaps most great artists, have been poor fellows indeed, whom to know was to despise.
To walk because it is good for you warps the sould, just as it warps the soul for a man to talk for hire or because he think it his duty.
Hilaire Belloc, The Footpath Way
Thou art all the comfort, The Gods will diet me with.
William Shakespeare
I get to travel around the world and meet all of these amazing people, and they're singing my songs! And to me, that's crazy.
Kina Grannis
Child! Do not throw this book about;Refrain from the unholy pleasureOf cutting all the pictures out!Preserve it as your chiefest treasure.
