Can you imagine a guy breaking into your car, and he steals your guitar case 'cause he thinks it's a guitar, and he gets it home and opens it up and there's a rake inside it, an electric toilet plunger and a dog skull? That actually happened.

Don't look forward to the day you stop suffering, because when it comes you'll know you're dead.

Tennessee (Thomas Lanier) Willia

A nobleman is Nature's provision for wealthy American minds ambitious to incur social distinction and suffer high life.

Ambrose Bierce

You may tell a tale that takes up residence in someone's soul, becomes their blood and self and purpose. That tale will move them and drive them and who knows that they might do because of it, because of your words. That is your role, your gift.

Erin Morgenstern

The utmost extent of man's knowledge, is to know that he knows nothing.

Joseph Addison

Better to be ignorant of a matter than half know it.

Publilius Syrus

To see and feel one's beloved naked for the first time is one of life's pure, irreducible epiphanies. If there is a true religion in the universe, it must include that truth of contact or be forever hollow. To make love to the one true person who deserves that love is one of the few absolute rewards of being a human being, balancing all of the pain, loss, awkwardness, loneliness, idiocy, compromise, and clumsiness that go with the human condition. To make love to the right person makes up for a lot of mistakes.

Dan Simmons

Philosophy has forgotten about children

Bernhard Schlink

Money and corruption are ruining the land, crooked politicians betray the working man, pocketing the profits and treating us like sheep, and we're tired of hearing promises that we know they'll never keep.

Ray Davies

Do dirt, get dirt. So I treat people with the same respect that I want.

DMX

I live my life trying to never appear to be a small man.

Julius Irving

Talent is always conscious of its own abundance, and does not object to sharing.

Alexandr Solzhenitsyn

In the beginning of a change the patriot is a scarce man, and brave, and hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a patriot.

Mark Twain
