If you're you, it doesn't matter if you're the most boring person in the world: someone will like you. You're not trying to be anyone else.
People who count their chickens before they are hatched act very wisely because chickens run about so absurdly that it's impossible to count them accurately.
Oscar Wilde
The person who tries to live alone will not succeed as a human being. His heart withers if it does not answer another heart. His mind shrinks away if he hears only the echoes of his own thoughts and finds no other inspiration.
Pearl S. Buck
The fate of this man or that man was less than a drop, although it was a sparkling one, in the great blue motion of the sunlit sea.
T.H. White
There is no greater impediment to progress in the sciences than the desire to see it take place too quickly.
G. C. (Georg Christoph) Lichtenb
I think no artist can claim to have any access to the truth, or an authentic version of an event. But obviously they have slightly better means at their disposal because they have their art to energize whatever it is they're trying to write about. They have music.
Thom Yorke
The object of oratory alone in not truth, but persuasion.
Thomas B. Macaulay
Buyers are graded not only on their successes, but also on their failures. Too many hits means the buyer isn't taking enough chances.
Leslie Wexner
As soon as you begin to say We have always done things this way -- perhaps that might be a better way, conscious law-making is beginning. As soon as you begin to say We do things this way -- they do things that way -- what is to be done about it? men are beginning to feel towards justice, that resides between the endless jar of right and wrong.
Helen M. Cam
There used to be two kinds of kisses. First when girls were kissed and deserted; second, when they were engaged. Now there's a third kind, where the man is kissed and deserted. If Mr. Jones of the nineties bragged he'd kissed a girl, everyone knew he was through with her. If Mr. Jones of 1919 brags the same everyone knows it's because he can't kiss her any more. Given a decent start any girl can beat a man nowadays.

My view is that you still, in order to win from the Labour perspective, have to have a strong alliance with business as well as the unions. You have got to be very much in the centre ground on things like public sector reform.
Tony Blair
I've never yet met a man who could look after me. I don't need a husband. What I need is a wife.
Joan Collins
We need never be hopeless because we can never be irreperably broken.
