To become properly acquainted with a truth, we must first have disbelieved it, and disputed against it.

You cannot climb the ladder of success dressed in the costume of failure.

Zig Ziglar

...when you put on your shortest dress, please leave some mystery in it. That's the difference between a miniskirt and a ho-skirt. A ho-skirt shows your Frisbee. A miniskirt shows just enough to cause some mystery. What these young women lack is mystery.

Tyler Perry

It is to the middle-class we must look for the safety of England.

William Makepeace Thackeray

My first meeting as a senator, my first day, they were already talking about the next election. Part of that's the permanent campaign, part of that's a word I've been using more frequently, 'tribal.' Our politics has become tribal: It's us versus them.

Evan Bayh

The failure of the Russian Socialist Republic will be the defeat of the proletariat of the whole world.

Karl Liebknecht

Books are not made for furniture, but there is nothing else that so beautifully furnishes a house.

Henry Ward Beecher

My present work concerns the problems connected with the theory of elementary particles, the theory of gravitation and cosmology and I shall be glad if I can manage to make some contribution to these important branches of science.

Andrei Sakharov

Some movies bring out the creativity in you. Every single audience member can become creative in the face of a particular movie. If you happen to like my films, it's because my films provide a bed for you on which you can find your creativity. The Hollywood movies do not provide that for you.

Abbas Kiarostami

Probably only an art-worlder like me could assign deeper meaning to something as simple and silly as Tebowing. But, to us, anytime people repeat a stance or a little dance, alone or together, we see that it can mean something. Imagistic and unspoken language is our thing.

Jerry Saltz

Fraud and prevarication are servile vices. They sometimes grow out of the necessities, always out of the habits, of slavish and degenerate spirits. It is an erect countenance, it is a firm adherence to principle, it is a power of resisting false shame and frivolous fear, that assert our good faith and honor, and assure to us the confidence of mankind.

Edmund Burke

Subjectivity is strange to Science, while Relativity is an objective part of it.

Felix Alba-Juez

Man only plays when in the full meaning of the word he is a man, and he is only completely a man when he plays.

Friedrich von Schiller
