At no time is freedom of speech more precious than when a man hits his thumb with a hammer.
Marshall Lumsden
Every person of genius is considerably helped by being dead.
Robert S. Lund
Your friendship is a glowing ember
Thelma J. Lund
Information on the Internet is subject to the same rules and regulations as conversation at a bar.
George Lundberg
If when a businessman speaks of minority employment, or air pollution, or poverty, he speaks in the language of a certified public accountant analyzing a corporate balance sheet, who is to know that he understands the human problems behind the statistical ones? If the businessman would stop talking like a computer printout or a page from the corporate annual report, other people would stop thinking he had a cash register for a heart. It is as simple as that -- but that isn't simple.
Louis B. Lundborg
Preaching is heady wine. It is pleasant to tell people where they get off.
Sir Arnold Lunn

When you look in the mirror, it's usually to fix your hair or put on makeup. To examine your body searching for problem areas. We look at ourselves to see the flaw, not beauty. And we look at predictable times, in the morning, after using the bathroom, before bed. We hardly ever see ourselves when we aren't prepared for inspection. But only when you're unprepared can you see your true self, your true beauty.
Valerie Frankel
The Christians are right: it is Pride which has been the chief cause of misery in every nation and every family since the world began.
C.S. Lewis
It was the passions about whose origin we deceived ourselves that tyrannized most strongly over us.
Oscar Wilde
No lists of things to be done. The day providential to itself. The hour. There is no later. This is later. All things of grace and beauty such that one holds them to one's heart have a common provenance in pain. Their birth in grief and ashes.
Cormac McCarthy
No one ever told me that grief felt so like fear. I am not afraid, but the sensation is like being afraid. The same fluttering in the stomach, the same restlessness, the yawning. I keep on swallowing.At other times it feels like being mildly drunk, or concussed. There is a sort of invisible blanket between the world and me. I find it hard to take in what anyone says. Or perhaps, hard to want to take it in. It is so uninteresting. Yet I want the others to be about me. I dread the moments when the house is empty. If only they would talk to one another and not to me.
As for Doing-good...I have tried it fairly, and, strange as it may seem, am satisfied that it does not agree with my constitution.
Henry David Thoreau
Each morning when I awake, I experience again a supreme pleasure - that of being Salvador Dali.
Salvador Dali
Laughter is the hand of God on the shoulder of a troubled world.
Grady Nutt
He was free to enjoy the breathless glee that overwhelmed him: the speed, the clear cold air, the total silence, the feeling of balance and excitement and peace.
Lois Lowry
It is the fault of our rhetoric that we cannot strongly state one fact without seeming to belie some other.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
The agreement or disagreement or its sense with reality constitutes its truth or falsity.
Ludwig Wittgenstein
I had become, with the approach of night, once more aware of loneliness and time - those two companions without whom no journey can yield us anything.
Lawrence Durrell
Better remain silent, better not even think, if you are not prepared to act.
Annie Besant
My one thing is I continue to be interested and want to be a student. I don't want to be a master. When I'm learning something, I'm in my element.
Chick Corea
Wherever the art of medicine is loved, there is also a love of humanity.
Hippocrates
Have nuts and be nuts.
Criss Jami
But that which fanaticism formerly promised to the elect, science now accomplishes for all men.
Gustave Flaubert
A lady's verily is as potent as a lord's
William Shakespeare
This is a value-added college education if I have heard one described. And what is the most remarkable about Delaware State University graduates - is they just keeping giving back.
Michael N. Castle
For some young people, their first experience ever hearing punk rock music was playing the Green Bay Packers on 'Madden'.
Billie Joe Armstrong
Sixth grade was a big time, in my childhood, of hoops and friendship, and coming up with funny things.
Adam Sandler
Be open to the amazing changes which are occurring in the field that interest you.
Leigh Steinberg
I do like dating cynics - they tend to be incredibly funny.
Chris Pine
TV is sort of the only way to go for an actress my age to make a decent salary with independent films, you just can't.

At this age, I should be leading a quiet life.
Aung San Suu Kyi
The first condition of progress is the removal of censorship.
George Bernard Shaw
When ill luck begins, it does not come in sprinkles, but in showers.

Steven Wright
Remember the poor - it costs nothing
For this new-married man approaching here,Whose salt imagination yet hath wrong'dYour well defended honour, you must pardonFor Mariana's sake: but as he adjudged your brother,--Being criminal, in double violationOf sacred chastity and of promise-breachThereon dependent, for your brother's life,--The very mercy of the law cries outMost audible, even from his proper tongue,'An Angelo for Claudio, death for death!'Haste still pays haste, and leisure answers leisure;Like doth quit like, and MEASURE still FOR MEASURE
Earlier, watching her apply mascara with ritual concentration, he'd wondered just how beautiful a woman had to be before she believed it.
