Canada has a passive-aggressive culture, with a lot of sarcasm and righteousness. That went with my weird messianic complex. The ego is a fascinating monster. I was taught from a young age that I had to serve, so that turned into me thinking I had to save the planet.

The only way to avoid being miserable is not to have enough leisure to wonder whether you are happy or not.

George Bernard Shaw

It is true that you can't prove a negative. However, the existence of God is provable in the same way a building is positive proof that there was a builder.

Ray Comfort

It is a serious thing to live in a society of possible gods and goddesses, to remember that the dullest most uninteresting person you talk to may one day be a creature which,if you say it now, you would be strongly tempted to worship, or else a horror and a corruption such as you now meet, if at all, only in a nightmare. All day long we are, in some degree helping each other to one or the other of these destinations. It is in the light of these overwhelming possibilites, it is with the awe and the circumspection proper to them, that we should conduct all of our dealings with one another, all friendships, all loves, all play, all politics. There are no ordinary people. You have never talked to a mere mortal. nations, cultures, arts, civilizations - These are mortal, and their life is to ours as the life of a gnat. But it is immortals whom we joke with, work with, marry, snub, and exploit - immortal horrors or everlasting splendors.

C.S. Lewis

Idealism is fine, but as it approaches reality the cost becomes prohibitive.

William F. Buckley

The power to tax is the power to destroy.

John Marshall

Justice means minding one's own business and not meddling with other men's concerns.

Plato

The harder you push, the more you are pulled.

Nike Corporation

I hate singers, a miserable crew who think that music exists only in their own throats.

George Bernard Shaw

Do what you love doing.

Julianna Margulies

...I realized that there was a thrilling undiscovered country to be explored in the mechanisms of the mammalian nervous system. Through it, one might approach the mystery of the mind...

Wilder Penfield

I think if Keith Moon was here today and you asked him to recall most of his early life or most of his life, he wouldn't be able to recall it.

Roger Daltrey

I know God will not give me anything I can't handle. I just wish that He didn't trust me so much.

Mother Theresa
