The champagne had been donated by one of Gus's doctors - Gus being the kind of person who inspires doctors to give their best bottles of champagne to children.
John Green
I've criticized President Bush for his failure to use his veto pen. There's plenty of blame to go around. The question is how to solve problems. It's not bailouts. What made America great? Free markets, free enterprise, manufacturing, job creation. That's how we're gonna do it, not by enlarging government.
Scott Brown

Jodi Picoult
Part of the reason that I moved to Los Angeles is that even though my mom introduced me to all kinds of music, I really wanted to work on having my own identify, on being who I am and doing what I do, and seeing how people responded.
Schuyler Fisk
When so many are lonely as seem to be lonely, it would be inexcusably selfish to be lonely alone.

Eddie Izzard
Oh, Jacques, we're used to each other, we're a pair of captive hawks caught in the same cage, and so we've grown used to each other. That's what passes for love at this dim, shadowy end of the Camino Real.
If we have an honest discussion on whether the war on poverty should be fought with welfare or with economic growth in the private sector, Democrats will lose black votes.
Alveda King
I have received no assurance that anything we can do will eradicate suffering. I think the best results are obtained by people who work quietly away at limited objectives, such as the abolition of the slave trade, or prison reform, or factory acts, or tuberculosis, not by those who think they can achieve universal justice, or health, or peace. I think the art of life consists in tackling each immediate evil as well as we can.
C.S. Lewis
Life is all memory, except for the one present moment that goes by you so quickly you hardly catch it going.

I have several computer companies. One of them I have a program for wide-format printing. I have a beauty program. So I have several different programs that I own for printing.
Jerry Mathers
You can be young without money but you can't be old without it.
I think if I could be any superhero, it'd probably be my mom... but I don't think I'd look too good in high heels, so it's not gonna happen.
Jason Behr
Everyone ought to bear patiently the results of his own conduct.
William Shakespeare
Golf is so popular simply because it is the best game in the world at which to be bad.
A. A. Milne
You said, They're harmless dreamers and they're loved by the people. -- What, I asked you, is harmless about a dreamer, and what, I asked you, is harmless about the love of the people? Revolution only needs good dreamers who remember their dreams.
If we don't end war, war will end us.
H. G. Wells
There's no way of knowing that your last good day is Your Last Good Day. At the time, it is just another good day.
I can't stand a naked light bulb, any more than I can a rude remark or a vulgar action.
The best thing about science is that hard, empirical answers are always there if you look hard enough. The best thing about religion is that the very absence of that certainty is what requires - and gives rise to - deep feelings of faith.
Jeffrey Kluger

Everything was beautiful and nothing hurt.
Kurt Vonnegut
Doing well is the result of doing good. That's what capitalism is all about.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
