The best time I ever had with Joan Crawford was when I pushed her down the stairs in Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?

Breathes there a man with soul so dead that it does not glow at the thought of what the men of his blood have done and suffered to make his country what it is? There is room, plenty of room, for proper pride of land and birth. What I inveigh against is a cursed spirit of intolerance, conceived in distrust and bred in ignorance, that makes the mental attitude perennially antagonistic, even bitterly antagonistic, to everything foreign, that subordinates everywhere the race to the nation, forgetting the higher claims of human brotherhood.

William Osler, Chauvinism in Med

As you walk through forestsor the meadows of your mind,Stop and talk to those you fearGood friendships you may find

Stephen Cosgrove

Truth is not only stranger than fiction, it is more telling. To know that a thing actually happened gives it a poignancy, touches a chord, which a piece of acknowledged fiction misses. It is to touch this chord that some authors have done everything they could to give you the impression that they are telling the plain truth.

W. Somerset Maugham, A Writer's

The problem with winter sports is that - follow me closely here - they generally take place in winter.

Dave Barry

Time was God's first creation.

Walter Lang

I think the world is ready for some rock 'n' roll. Some real time guys that play their own instruments, write their own songs, and sing the music and have a good time doing it.

Vince Neil

So when you do your family tree and Margaret Cho does hers, and... Wanda Sykes and John Legend... we're adding to the database that scholars can then draw from to generalize about the complexity of the American experience. And that's the contribution that family trees make to broader scholarship.

Henry Louis Gates

I die adoring God,loving my friends, not hating my enemies, and detesting superstition.

Voltaire (FrançoisMarie Arouet)

Like some dogs: kick them once and they never trust you again, no matter how nice you are to them.

Stephen King

There was a teacher who recognized that I was interested in cartooning and he was great.

Jonathan Shapiro

When even one American - who has done nothing wrong - is forced by fear to shut his mind and close his mouth - then all Americans are in peril.

Harry S. Truman

We are hidden in ourselves, like a truth hidden in isolated facts. When we know that this One in us is One in all, then our truth is revealed.

Rabindranath Tagore
