I don't judge a regime by the damning criticism of the opposition, but by the ingenuous praise of the partisan.

I've always believed in God. I also think that's the sort of thing that either comes as part of the equipment, the capacity to believe, or at some point in your life, when you're in a position where you actually need help from a power greater than yourself, you simply make an agreement.

Stephen King

Not the torturer will scare me, nor the body's final fall, nor the barrels of death's rifles, nor the shadows on the wall, nor the night when to the ground the last dim star of pain, is hurled but the blind indifference of a merciless, unfeeling world.

Roger Waters

God reigns when we take a liberal view, when a liberal view is presented to us.

Henry David Thoreau

Our perceptions are influenced by our surroundings.

Asa Don Brown

After all, crime is only a left-handed form of human endeavor.

John Huston

I must not write a word to you about politics, because you are a woman.

John Adams

I have more respect for somebody who points at his ideal - in this case, the ideal of the pirate - and then becomes something that's more radical, more exciting, more subversive than a pirate could ever be.

Will Oldham

Hannah Arendt

Live life to the fullest, and focus on the positive.

Matt Cameron

How can there be so much difference between a day off and an off day?

I believe in God, only I spell it Nature.

Frank Lloyd Wright

I'm not interested in trying to work on people's perceptions. I am who I am, and if you don't take the time to learn about that, then your perception is going to be your problem.

Jim Brown
