The world is very different now. For man holds in his mortal hands the power to abolish all forms of human poverty, and all forms of human life.
Good shot, bad luck and hell are the five basic words to be used in a game of tennis, though these, of course, can be slightly amplified.

Sir Ken Robinson
The genius of the American system is that we have created extraordinary results from plain old ordinary people.

It was very hard for all of us. It's still very hard. The anniversary of his death just passed, and every single one of his friends, still, after all these years... it's unbelievable.
Eydie Gorme
I had seen birth and death but had thought they were different.
T. S. Eliot
Life is supposed to get tough.
Kelsey Grammer
The human foot is a masterpiece of engineering and a work of art.
Leonardo da Vinci
When you are making a success of something, it's not work. It's a way of life. You enjoy yourself because you are making your contribution to the world.
Andrew Granatelli
Everything one invents is true, you may be perfectly sure of that. Poetry is as precise as geometry.
Gustave Flaubert

Marquis de la Grange
The most essential thing for us was to get the business model right, then put the world-class technology under it to support it. At Merrill, that meant not doing what people expected.
John McKinley
I drank some boiling water because I wanted to whistle.
Mitch Hedberg
If you think your boss is stupid, remember: you wouldn't have a job if he was any smarter.
Albert A. Grant
Art is creative for the sake of realization, not for amusement... for transfiguration, not for the sake of play.
Max Beckmann
We shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills we shall never surrender.
Winston Churchill
I'm not a combative person. My long experience has taught me to resolve conflict by raising the issues before I or others burn their boats.
Alistair Grant
No country in the history of the world has ever contributed more to humankind and accomplished more for its people in so brief a period of time as Israel has done since its relatively recent rebirth in 1948.
Alan Dershowitz
Every morning I jump out of bed and step on a landmine. The landmine is me. After the explosion, I spent the rest of the day putting the pieces together.
Ray Bradbury

Sun Tzu
I improve on misquotation.
Love always creates, it never destroys. In this lie's man's only promise.
Leo Buscaglia
It doesn't do good to open doors for someone who doesn't have the price to get in. If he has the price, he may not need the laws. There is no law saying the Negro has to live in Harlem or Watts.
Ronald Reagan
We must free ourselves of the hope that the sea will ever rest. We must learn to sail in high winds.
Hanmer Parsons Grant

Billie Joe Armstrong
A great artist is a great man in a great child.
Victor Hugo
The legacy of women's war work is our present post-industrial employment structure. It was the war that created the demand for a technologically advanced, de-skilled, low-paid, non-unionized female workforce and paved the way for making part-time work the norm for married women now. A generation later, it was the daughters of wartime women workers who completed their mothers' campaign for equal pay.
Linda Grant
'American Horror' goes for a very specific kind of Seventies suburban downer ambience - 'Flowers in the Attic' paperbacks, Black Sabbath album covers and late-night flicks like 'Let's Scare Jessica to Death.' It even has 'Go Ask Alice'-era urban legends.
Rob Sheffield
You say it is the good cause that hallows even war? I say unto you: it is the good war that hallows any cause.
Friedrich Nietzsche
