The Bible should be taught, but emphatically not as reality. It is fiction, myth, poetry, anything but reality. As such it needs to be taught because it underlies so much of our literature and our culture.

We are merely cheated of our lives by drunkards

William Shakespeare

The egoism which enters into our theories does not affect their sincerity; rather, the more our egoism is satisfied, the more robust is our belief.

George Eliot

No test tube can breed love and affection. No frozen packet of semen ever read a story to a sleepy child.

Shirley Williams

Man was predestined to have free will.

Hal Luyah

There is nothing in the world so enjoyable as a thorough-going monomania...

Agnes Repplier

If you can understand the humor in the drawing part you'll probably get the humor in the audio part.

Eric San

Nobody had ever told me junk food was bad for me. Four years of medical school, and four years of internship and residency, and I never thought anything was wrong with eating sweet rolls and doughnuts, and potatoes, and bread, and sweets.

Robert Atkins

The fact that it's science fiction gives you the license to do anything you want to do.

Lindsay Wagner

Plenty of people miss their share of happiness, not because they never found it, but because they didn't stop to enjoy it.

William Feather

I don't think a show's ever changed networks in the middle of the season before, but it was cool because they gave us those extra couple years of life that was necessary to get us to syndication.

Donal Logue

I am afraid that the pleasantness of an employment does not always evince its propriety.

Jane Austen

I find it really offensive when people say that the emotional experiences of teenagers are less real or less important than those of adults. I am an adult, and I used to be a teenager, and so I can tell you with some authority that my feelings then were as real as my feelings are now.

John Green
