People are roasting each other at parties, at work events, around the fire. It's so fun. People are busting each other's chops, and it's a sign of affection, truly.

Jeff Ross

We owe respect to the living. To the dead we owe only truth.

Voltaire (FrançoisMarie Arouet)

So, in the infinitely nobler battle in which you are engaged against error and wrong, if ever repulsed or stricken down, may you always be solaced and cheered by the exulting cry of triumph over some abuse in Church or State, some vice or folly in society, some false opinion or cruelty or guilt which you have overcome! And I beseech you to treasure up in your hearts these my parting words: Be ashamed to die until you have won some victory for humanity.

Horace Mann, the closing paragra

You know, working as an actor, I'm always working within my own imagination.

Self-respect. It would make me lovable. And it's the secret to good sex.

Susan Sontag
