If there is anything the nonconformist hates worse than a conformist, it's another nonconformist who doesn't conform to the prevailing standard of nonconformity.

Men are swayed more by fear than by reverence.

Aristotle

It is hard to free fools from the chains they revere.

Voltaire (FrançoisMarie Arouet)

Life is made up of sobs, sniffles, and smiles, with sniffles predominating.

Though lovers be lost love shall not.

Dylan Thomas

William Blake

Dan Rather

I love being in the gym.

Scott Brooks

Nature does nothing in vain.

Aristotle

A populace never rebels from passion for attack, but from impatience of suffering.

Edmund Burke

What stops people in their tracks is a small mental packet of energy. It is called a thought. They think I can't.
