I don't think the war in Afghanistan was ruthlessly enough waged.

They who suspect a Mephistophiles, or sneering, satirical devil, under all, have not learned the secret of true humor, which sympathizes with gods themselves, in view of their grotesque, half-finished creatures.

Henry David Thoreau

So long as the system of competition in the production and exchange of the means of life goes on, the degradation of the arts will go on; and if that system is to last for ever, then art is doomed, and will surely die; that is to say, civilization will die.

William Morris

Life is not made up of minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, or years, but of moments. You must experience each one before you can appreciate it.

Sarah Breathnach

Like when I host a party. I hope my guests get along. But if not, how interesting!

Andy Cohen

As a father, I do everything my dad didn't do. My son Beau's birth changed my life.

David Cassidy

He had that sense, or inward prophecy,-- which a young man had better never have been born than not to have, and a mature man had better die at once than utterly to relinquish,-- that we are not doomed to creep on forever in the old bad way, but that, this very now, there are harbingers abroad of a golden era, to be accomplished in his own lifetime.

Nathaniel Hawthorne

I mean, whatever kills you kills you, and your death is authentic no matter how you die.

Jerry Garcia

Wayne Dyer

Give me beauty in the inward soul; may the outward and the inward man be at one.

Socrates

I was a man who was lucky enough to have discovered a political theory, a man who was caught up in the whirlpool of Cuba's political crisis...; discovering Marxism...was like finding a map in the forest.
