Every man loves what he is good at.

We were still at the age when girls are years older than guy, and the guys grow up by doing their best when the girls need them to.

Tana French

The feeling of friendship is like that of being comfortably filled with roast beef love, like being enlivened with champagne.

Samuel Johnson

It's a positive thing to talk about terrible things and make people laugh about them.

Louis C. K.

If the world were merely seductive, that would be easy. If it were merely challenging, that would be no problem. But I arise in the morning torn between a desire to improve the world and a desire to enjoy the world. This makes it hard to plan the day.

E.B. White

Stephen Samuel Wise

We cannot feel strongly toward the totally unlike because it is unimaginable, unrealizable; nor yet toward the wholly like because it is stale -- identity must always be dull company.

Emily Dickinson

And, after all, what is a lie? 'Tis but the truth in a masquerade.

Alexander Pope

Nobody had ever instructed him that a slave-ship, with a procession of expectant sharks in its wake, is a missionary institution, by which closely-packed heathen are brought over to enjoy the light of the Gospel.

Harriet Beecher Stowe

Never trust a man who speaks well of everybody.

John Churton Collins

I believe consistency and orthogonality are tools of design, not the primary goal in design.
