Everybody is entertained to death.

Like a wild animal, the truth is often too powerful to remain caged. -From the Candor faction manifesto

Veronica Roth

It is the failing of youth not to be able to restrain its own violence.

Seneca (Seneca the Elder)

I'm a girl from a good family who was very well brought up. One day I turned my back on it all and became a bohemian.

Brigitte Bardot

Any idealist who tries to join the Peace Corps must realize he is not going to change the world overnight.

Sargent Shriver

First think of the person who lives in disguise,Who deals in secrets and tells naught but lies.Next, tell me what's always the last thing to mend,The middle of middle and the end of end?And finally give me the sound often heardDuring the search for a hard-to-find word.Now string them together, and answer me this,Which creature would you be unwilling to kiss?

J.K. Rowling

It would be very glamorous to be reincarnated as a great big ring on Liz Taylor's finger.

Andy Warhol

The fantastical idea of virtue and the public good being a sufficient security to the state against the commission of crimes...was never mine. It is only the sanguinary hue of our penal laws which I meant to object to. Punishments I know are necessary, and I would provide them strict and inflexible, but proportioned to the crime. Death might be inflicted for murder and perhaps for treason, [but I] would take out of the description of treason all crimes which are not such in their nature. Rape, buggery, etc., punish by castration. All other crimes by working on high roads, rivers, gallies, etc., a certain time proportioned to the offence... Laws thus proportionate and mild should never be dispensed with. Let mercy be the character of the lawgiver, but let the judge be a mere machine. The mercies of the law will be dispensed equally and impartially to every description of men; those of the judge or of the executive power will be the eccentric impulses of whimsical, capricious designing man.

Thomas Jefferson

Of course, my family has been a big reason for me to come back, especially my son who loves the game of hockey - he was a big reason for me coming back.

Mario Lemieux

The truth is balance. However the opposite of truth, which is unbalance, may not be a lie.

Susan Sontag

But one does not make living writing poetry unless you're a professor, and one frankly doesn't get a lot of girls as a poet.

Jeffery Deaver

If you're going to kill someone there isn't much reason to get all worked up about it and angry - you just pull the trigger. Angry discussions beforehand are a waste of time. We need to smile at Novell while we pull the trigger.

Jim Allchin

Sometimes, the way around prejudice is education.
