Until they come to see us from their planet, I wait patiently. I hear them saying: Don't call us, we'll call you.

What is defeat? Nothing but education. Nothing but the first step to something better.

Wendell Phillips

Happiness is working with Jack Lemmon.

Billy Wilder

Let us not be too particular; it is better to have old secondhand diamonds than none at all.

Mark Twain

Intelligence is the wife, imagination is the mistress, memory is the servant.

Victor Hugo

'That's What She Said' is not Hollywood's standard picture of women: preternaturally gorgeous, wedding obsessed, boy crazy, fashion focused, sexed up 'girl' women. These are real women, comically portrayed, who are trying to wrestle with the very expectations of womanhood that Hollywood movies set up.

Carrie Preston

Tony, Tony,come around, something's lost that can't be found.

Stephen King

Ignorance is bold and knowledge reserved.

Thucydides

The truth is, the notion that gay marriage is harmful to marriage, is sort of mind-boggling, because these are people trying to get married. But it seems to me, if you want to defend marriage against something, defend it against divorce.

Cokie Roberts

Globalization was a deep trend pushed by technology and right ideas, as much as anything else.

Jeffrey Sachs

What makes a belief true or false I call a fact. The particular fact that makes a given belief true or false I call its objective, and the relation of the belief to its objective I call the reference or the objective reference of the belief. Thus, if I believe that Columbus crossed the Atlantic in 1492, the objective of my belief is Columbus's actual voyage, and the reference of my belief is the relation between my belief and the voyage--that relation, namely, in virtue of which the voyage makes my belief true (or, in another case, false). Reference of beliefs differs from meaning of words in various ways, but especially in the fact that it is of two kinds, true reference and false reference. The truth or falsehood of a belief does not depend upon anything intrinsic to the belief, but upon the nature of its relation to its objective. The intrinsic nature of belief can be treated without reference to what makes it true or false.http://www.literaturepage.com/read/russell-analysis-of-mind-165.html

Bertrand Russell, The Analysis o

It's a pleasure to share one's memories. Everything remembered is dear, endearing, touching, precious. At least the past is safe --though we didn't know it at the time. We know it now. Because it's in the past; because we have survived.

Susan Sontag

The only true failure lies in failure to start.
