Some claim a place in the list of patriots, by an acrimonious and unremitting opposition to the court. This mark is by no means infallible. Patriotism is not necessarily included in rebellion. A man may hate his king, yet not love his country.

Men have a much better time of it than women. For one thing, they marry later for another thing, they die earlier.

H. L. Mencken

No nation can meet the world's challenges alone.

Imitation is suicide

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy s--t we don't need.

Now, my knowledge of photography was terribly limited.

The history of the twentieth century - America's century! - has been pretty much a history of rising prices... inflation is itself a problem. But the legitimate and hysterical fears of inflation are - quite aside from the evil of inflation itself - likely, in their own right, to be problems. In short, I fear inflation. And I fear the fear of inflation. Avoiding inflation is not an absolute imperative, but rather is one of a number of conflicting goals that we must pursue and that we may often have to compromise. Even if the military outlook were serene - and it is not - modern democracies must expect in the future to be much of the time at, or near, the point where inflation is a concern. Our greatest economic problem will be to face that concern realistically, to weigh inflation's quantitative evil against the evils of actions taken against it, to develop methods of adjusting to the residue of inflation which attainment of the 'golden mean' might involve. The challenge is great but the prognosis is cheerful.Responding to the question: What is the most important economic problem to be faced by the United States in the next twenty years?

Paul A. Samuelson, 1958

Man is more disposed to domination than freedom; and a structure of dominion not only gladdens the eye of the master who rears and protects it, but even its servants are uplifted by the thought that they are members of a whole, which rises high above the life and strength of single generations.

Karl Wilhelm Von Humboldt

Let the sweet hope that Thou art mine, My life and death attend; Thy presence through my journey shine, And crown my journey's end.

Anne Steele

Allow yourself to enjoy each happy moment in your life.

I do believe that movies are subject to a million interpretations.

Oliver Stone

It's your outlook on life that counts. If you take yourself lightly and don't take yourself too seriously, pretty soon you can find the humor in our everyday lives. And sometimes it can be a lifesaver.

Betty White

Nothing more rapidly inclines a person to go into a monastery than reading a book on etiquette. There are so many trivial ways in which it is possible to commit some social sin.

Quentin Crisp
