We can know only that we know nothing. And that is the highest degree of human wisdom.

It's better to be an authentic loser than a false success, and to die alive than to live dead.

William Markiewicz

What I love best in life is new starts.

Karl Lagerfeld

Journalism over here is not only an obsession but a drawback that cannot be overrated. Politicians are frightened of the press, and in the same way as bull-fighting has a brutalizing effect upon Spain (of which she is unconscious), headlines of murder, rape, and rubbish, excite and demoralize the American public.

Margot Asquith

A family is a unit composed not only of children but of men, women, an occasional animal, and the common cold.

Ogden Nash

And I think what people in New Jersey have gotten to know about me over the last decade that I've been in public life is what you see is what you get. And I'm no different when I'm sitting with you than I am when I'm at home or anyplace else.

Chris Christie

Jealousy is the grave of affection.

Mary Baker Eddy

If I were going to convert to any religion I would probably choose Catholicism because it at least has female saints and the Virgin Mary.

Margaret Atwood

Nature makes boys and girls lovely to look upon so they can be tolerated until they acquire some sense.

William Lyon Phelps

Science is like literature, a continuing dialog among diverse and conflicting voices, no one ever wholly right or wholly wrong, but a steady conversation forever provisional and personal and living.

Gregory Benford

I strive for an architecture from which nothing can be taken away.

Helmut Jahn

No memory of having starred atones for later disregard, or keeps the end from being hard.

Robert Frost

Before 'Schindler's List,' I wouldn't have believed movies had a lot of power for social change.

Liam Neeson
