What Darwin was too polite to say, my friends, is that we came to rule the Earth not because we were the smartest, or even the meanest, but because we have always been the craziest, most murderous motherfuckers in the jungle.

Love is a trap. When it appears, we see only its light, not its shadows.

Paulo Coelho

It is never easy to win but it is a lot easier to win when you play well. The key is winning golf tournaments when you are not playing so well. Managing your game is something that I feel that I am still learning to do.

Rory McIlroy

I don't mind admitting that I, too, have watched Hilton undergoing the sexual act. I phrase it as crudely as that because it was one of the least erotic such sequences I have ever seen. She seemed to know what was expected of her and to manifest some hard-won expertise, but I could almost have believed that she was drugged. At no point did her facial expression match even the simulacrum of lovemaking.

Christopher Hitchens

My mother had morning sickness after I was born.

Rodney Dangerfield

Good art wounds as well as delights. It must, because our defenses against the truth are wound so tightly around us. But as art chips away at our defenses, it also opens us to healing potentialities that transcend intellectual games and ego-preserving strategies.

Rollo May

As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you.

Jesus Christ

The heart may think it knows better: the senses know that absence blots people out. We really have no absent friends. The friend becomes a traitor by breaking, however unwillingly or sadly, out of our own zone: a hard judgment is passed on him, for all the pleas of the heart.

Elizabeth Bowen

It hurts the spirit, somehow, to read the word environments, when the plural means that there are so many alternatives there to be sorted through, as in a market, and voted on.

Lewis Thomas

Tennessee Williams said if he got rid of his demons, he would lose his angels.

Dakin Williams

Your secret is your prisoner; once you reveal it, you become its slave.

Ibn Gabirol

Write in recollection and amazement for yourself.

Jack Kerouac

We have to make America the best place in the world to do business.

Dick Cheney
