Comics are really my life blood in a lot of respects.

At 35, I'm definitely starting to feel more like a grown-up than I ever have. There's nothing in my life that is childish or whimsical. Having fun is fantastic and I never want to lose a sense of that - and also, I think, you have to have that to put into your work or else it's going to feel stiff.

People talk a lot about all the homosexuals there are to see in Greenwich Village, but it was all the neuters that caught my eye that day. These were my people -- as used as I was to wanting love from nowhere, as certain as I was that almost anything desirable was likely to be booby-trapped.

Marcus Tullius Cicero

Why don't people ask us about our hope? The answer is probably that we look as if we hope in the same things they do. Our lives don't look like they are on the Calvary road, stripped down for sacrificial love, serving others with the sweet assurance that we don't need to be rewarded in this life.

John Piper

The life of Man is a long march through the night, surrounded by invisible foes, tortured by weariness and pain, towards a goal that few can hope to reach, and where none may tarry long. One by one, as they march, our comrades vanish form our sight, seized by the silent orders of omnipotent Death. Very brief is the time in which we can help them, in which their happiness or misery is decided. Be it ours to shed sunshine on their path, to lighten their sorrows by the balm of sympathy, to give them the pure joy of a never-tiring affection, to strengthen failing courage, to instill faith in times of despair.

Bertrand Russell

Our government rests in public opinion. Whoever can change public opinion, can change the government, practically just so much.

Abraham Lincoln

We have just enough religion to make us hate, but not enough to make us love one another.http://www.readbookonline.net/books/Swift/136/

A daily dose of daydreaming heals the heart, soothes the soul, and strengthens the imagination.

What is a man if he is not a thief who openly charges as much as he can for the goods he sells?

Mahatma Gandhi

Traditionalists are pessimists about the future and optimists about the past.
