Bad psychoanalysis would say I enjoyed pleasing people, working really hard and pleasing people, which is probably related to my father in some way. But I really liked working hard. When I worked at Disneyland, I'd do 12 hours straight and go home thrilled.

I not only use all the brains I have but all I can borrow.

Woodrow Wilson

If our life is unhappy it is painful to bear; if it is happy it is horrible to lose, So the one is pretty equal to the other.

Jean de la Bruyere

To see a man beaten not by a better opponent but by himself is a tragedy.

Cus D'Amato

Truth has rough flavours if we bite it through.

George Eliot

I've been in love with the same woman for forty-one years. If my wife finds out, she'll kill me.

Henny Youngman

When thou art quiet and silent, then art thou as God was before nature and creature; thou art that which God then wats; thou art that whereof he made thy nature and creature: Then thou hearest and seest even with that wherewith God himself saw and heard in thee, before every thine own willing or thine own seeing began.

Jacob Boehme

I'd like to state that Spike Lee is not saying that African American culture is just for black people alone to enjoy and cherish. Culture is for everybody.

Steven Wright

American Idol' is a 00 million-a-year corporation. When you are dealing with that, you can't come off with lies - it's either the truth or nothing.

Corey Clark

People of quality know everything without ever having learned anything.

Moli

What I used to say to people, when I was much more engagé myself, is that you can't be apolitical. It will come and get you. It's not that you shouldn't be neutral. It's that you won't be able to stay neutral.

Christopher Hitchens

The belief in immortality has always seemed cowardly to me. When very young I learned that all things die, and all that we wish of good must be won on this earth or not at all.
