You can see my guns at my apartment. The safe room is a special place... It's good to have a safe room in your house. It's storm-proof we've got food, store supplies, all kinds of stuff.

You may lie with your mouth, but with the mouth you make as you do so you none the less tell the truth.

Friedrich Nietzsche

Today we often think that before we start living a religious life we have first to accept the creedal doctrines and that before one can have any comprehension of the loyalty and trust of faith, one must first force one's mind to accept a host of incomprehensible doctrines. But this is to put the cart before the horse.

Karen Armstrong

Nothing surpasses the beauty and elegance of a bad idea.

Craig Bruce

No one is as deaf as the man who will not listen.

Yiddish Proverb

Do let him read the papers. But not while you accusingly tiptoe around the room, or perch much like a silent bird of prey on the edge of your most uncomfortable chair. (He will read them anyway, and he should read them, so let him choose his own good time.) Don't make a big exit. Just go. But kiss him quickly, before you go, otherwise he might think you are angry; he is used to suspecting he is doing something wrong.

Marlene Dietrich

She has built her whole life on the foundation of beauty: each chiseled plane, each sloping dimple, each soft curve as crucial as keystones in the cathedral of her body.

Nenia Campbell

What ever is the natural propensity of a person is hard to overcome. If a dog were made a king, he would still gnaw at his shoes laces.

Hitopadesa

Scared, Angel?

Becca Fitzpatrick

There are three kinds of despots. There is the despot who tyrannizes over the body. There is the despot who tyrannizes over the soul. There is the despot who tyrannizes over the soul and body alike. The first is called the Prince. The second is called the Pope. The third is called the People.

Oscar Wilde

Grief is depression in proportion to circumstance; depression is grief out of proportion to circumstance. It is tumbleweed distress that thrives on thin air, growing despite its detachment from the nourishing earth. It can be described only in metaphor and allegory

Andrew Solomon, The Noonday Demo

I came from a real tough neighborhood. Why every time I shut the window I hurt somebody's fingers.

Rodney Dangerfield

To retain respect for sausages and laws, one must not watch them in the making.

Otto von Bismarck
