America's intellectual community has never been very bright. Or honest. They're all sheep, following whatever the intellectual fashion of the decade happens to be. Demanding that everyone follow their dicta in lockstep. Everyone has to be open-minded and tolerant of the things they believe, but God forbid they should ever concede, even for a moment, that someone who disagrees with them might have some fingerhold of truth.

Deep in their roots, all flowers keep the light.

Theodore Roethke

Oh my gosh, I feel like I'm really obsessive about anything dealing with my health.

Ginnifer Goodwin

Humor is mankind's greatest blessing.

Mark Twain

In an era when the nation's collective imagination is no longer captured by space, real science sometimes has a smaller budget than science fiction.

Peter Kendall

We don't know who we are until we see what we can do.

Martha Grimes

Life is a celebration, Enjoy it well

The artist is the child of his time; but woe to him if he is also its disciple, or even its favorite.

Friedrich von Schiller

A man may be a tough, concentrated, successful money-maker and never contribute to his country anything more than a horrible example. A manager may be tough and practical, squeezing out, while the going is good, the last ounce of profit and dividend, and may leave behind him an exhausted industry and a legacy of industrial hatred. A tough manager may never look outside his own factory walls or be conscious of his partnership in a wider world. I often wonder what strange cud such men sit chewing when their working days are over, and the accumulating riches of the mind have eluded them.

Robert Menzies

I was born and brought up in Liverpool with my clever little sister Jemma, who is 14 and wants to be a vet. My mum Jane is an administrator and my dad Peter is a taxi driver.

Jennifer Ellison

I learn from experience.

Alan Dershowitz

He'd fought hard, Lida told me, as if there was another way to fight.

John Green

Interest does not tie nations together it sometimes separates them. But sympathy and understanding does unite them.

Woodrow Wilson
