I am sick and tired of being sick and tired.
I voted for Barack because he was black. 'Cuz that's why other folks vote for other people - because they look like them... That's American politics, pure and simple.
Samuel L. Jackson
This...is the surer, safer, saner way of meditation. For, when the mind is absent from the body it is present with thy Lord, thy purposes, thy hopes.When asked: Why have I never been able to meditate? I go to sleep.
Edgar Cayce
I have a really great relationship with God. I pray. I read the Bible.
Hunter Tylo
We were all victims of an oppressive system, but that mattered far less to us than our deep bonding with our owners.
Orson Scott Card
We are hidden in ourselves, like a truth hidden in isolated facts. When we know that this One in us is One in all, then our truth is revealed.
Rabindranath Tagore
In terms of number of movies, I've been in an extraordinary amount. If you count only the minutes I'm onscreen, it's not so long.
Wallace Shawn
Dreams are today's answers to tomorrow's questions.
I am accustomed to sleep, and in my dreams to imagine the same things that lunatics imagine when awake.
Rene Descartes, Meditations on F
Those of us who are most genuinely repelled by war and violence are also those who are most likely to decide that some things, after all, are worth fighting for.
Christopher Hitchens
It's the emptiest and yet the fullest of all human messages: 'Good-bye.
Kurt Vonnegut
I like what I see now in China, but I think the Japanese are a step ahead into craziness and weirdness. I go to galleries there that are the size of a New York elevator, and every time I'm surprised by the amazing things I find. I really hope I'll be able to promote some of these artists, to show their work in the West.
Jean Pigozzi
I have always been amazed at the way an ordinary observer lends so much more credence and attaches so much more importance to waking events than to those occurring in dreams.... Man...is above all the plaything of his memory.
Andre Breton, Surrealist Manifes
It is in doing things and not reading about them that results come about.
Stephen Richards
Psychic automatism in its pure state, by which one proposes to express -- verbally, by means of the written word, or in any other manner -- the actual functioning of thought. Dictated by the thought, in the absence of any control exercised by reason, exempt from any aesthetic or moral concern.
Just an observation: it is impossible to be both grateful and depressed. Those with a grateful mindset tend to see the message in the mess. And even though life may knock them down, the grateful find reasons, if even small ones, to get up.
Steve Maraboli
If we really wanted to be cool, and everyone in the world had Pro Tools, we could just put it up on the internet and everyone could make their own record out of it.
Charlie Hunter
Surrealism does not allow those who devote themselves to it to forsake it whenever they like. There is every reason to believe that it acts on the mind very much as drugs do; like drugs, it creates a certain state of need and can push man to frightful revolts.
Andre Breton
I have a responsibility to nurture and shepherd my talent and when I'm living the parts of my life not related to that I feel I have the right to be left alone.
Ashley Judd
Young men think old men are fools, but old men know young men are fools.
George Chapman
Stars hide your fires; let not light see my black and deep desires: The eyes wink at the hand; yet let that be which the eye fears, when it is done, to see
William Shakespeare
The poem is a little myth of man's capacity of making life meaningful. And in the end, the poem is not a thing we see-it is, rather, a light by which we may see-and what we see is life.
Robert Penn Warren
The men and woman who make the best boon companions seem to have given up hope of doing something else...some defect of talent or opportunity has cut them off from their pet ambition and has thus left them with leisure to take an interest in their lives of others. Your ambition may be, it makes him keep his thoughts at home. But the heartbroken people -- if I may use the word in a mild, benevolent sense -- the people whose wills are subdued to fate, give us consolation, recognition, and welcome.
John Jay Chapman
It was possible that a miracle was not something that happened to you, but rather something that didn't.
Jodi Picoult
Money, not morality, is the principle commerce of civilized nations.
Thomas Jefferson
You can get assent to almost any proposition so long as you are not going to do anything about it.
Wit beyond measure is a man's greatest treasure.
J.K. Rowling
To raise new questions, new possibilities, to regard old problems from a new angle, requires creative imagination and marks real advance in science.
Albert Einstein
It's never occurred to me to worry about my health, or that I'll get old, or that people will stop laughing at me.
Frank Carson
Good government is the outcome of private virtue.
Tis love that makes the world go round, my baby.
Charles Dickens
I know it's hard to blame the time, but there's a bit of an expectation for a summer movie. I think that 'Superman Returns' was a bit nostalgic and romantic, and I don't think that was what people were expecting, especially in the summer.
Bryan Singer
I want to find someone on the earth so intelligent that he welcomes opinions which he condemns.
For as old age is that period of life most remote from infancy, who does not see that old age in this universal man ought not to be sought in the times nearest his birth, but in those most remote from it?
Blaise Pascal
I'd rather learn from one bird how to sing than to teach ten thousand stars how not to dance.
e. e. cummings
A political organization is a transferable commodity. You could not find a better way of killing virtue than by packing it into one of these contraptions which some gang of thieves is sure to find useful.
Happiness is pleasure without regret
Leo Tolstoy
Lawsuit: A machine which you go into as a pig and come out of as a sausage.
Ambrose Bierce
One accusation you can't throw at me is that I've always done my best.
Alan Shearer
The average educated man in America has about as much knowledge of what a political idea is as he has of the principles of counterpoint. Each is a thing used in politics or music which those fellows who practice politics or music manipulate somehow. Show him one and he will deny that it is politics at all. It must be corrupt or he will not recognize it. He has only seen dried figs. He has only thought dried thoughts. A live thought or a real idea is against the rules of his mind.
Experience keeps a dear school, but fools will learn in no other.
Benjamin Franklin
