David Ogilvy

Where there are friends there is wealth.

Plautus

A president who breaks the law is a threat to the very structure of our government.

Al Gore

I am an old scholar, better-looking now than when I was young. That's what sitting on your ass does to your face.

Leonard Cohen

A fundamental mistake to call vehemence and rigidity strength! A man is not strong who takes convulsion-fits; though six men cannot hold him then. He that can walk under the heaviest weight without staggering, he is the strong man . . . A man who cannot hold his peace, till the time come for speaking and acting, is no right man.

Thomas Carlyle

If you can remember anything about the sixties, you weren't really there.

John Morley

A man's health can be judged by which he takes two at a time -- pills or stairs.

Joan Welsh

We manage the fear, I manage the fear, but it certainly takes its toll, the strain does.

Christiane Amanpour

All good things are cheap: all bad are very dear.

Henry David Thoreau

Overconfidence blurs out the risk. Inferiority magnifies it.

Toba Beta
