Life is what happens to you while you're making other plans.

Napoleon Hill

It is true, that which I have revealed to you; there is no God, no universe, no human race, no earthly life, no heaven, no hell. It is all a dream--a grotesque and foolish dream. Nothing exists but you. And you are but a thought--a vagrant thought, a useless thought, a homeless thought, wandering forlorn among the empty eternities!

Mark Twain

Patricia Sun

Boris Spassky

All those vitamins aren't to keep death at bay, they're to keep deterioration at bay.

Jeanne Moreau

Manners require time, and nothing is more vulgar than haste.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Feeding is a very important ritual for me. I don't trust people who don't like to eat.
