Experience is what really happens to you in the long run; the truth that finally overtakes you.

No matter what you think about the Iraq war, there is one thing we can all agree on for the next days - we have to salute the courage and bravery of those who are risking their lives to vote and those brave Iraqi and American soldiers fighting to protect their right to vote.

Hillary Clinton

But the love of adventure was in father's blood.

Buffalo Bill

If water derives lucidity from stillness, how much more the faculties of the mind! The mind of the sage, being in repose, becomes the mirror of the universe, the speculum of all creation.

Chuang Tzu

The parody is the last refuge of the frustrated writer. Parodies are what you write when you are associate editor of the Harvard Lampoon. The greater the work of literature, the easier the parody. The step up from writing parodies is writing on the wall above the urinal.

Ernest Hemingway, quoted in A.E.

Freedom isn't free. It shouldn't be a bragging point that 'Oh, I don't get involved in politics,' as if that makes someone cleaner. No, that makes you derelict of duty in a republic. Liars and panderers in government would have a much harder time of it if so many people didn't insist on their right to remain ignorant and blindly agreeable.

Bill Maher

Some people are really drawn to technology and I liken them to artists.

Mitchell Baker

If we have need of a strong will in order to do good, it is still more necessary for us in order not to do evil.

Mole

A compelling story, even if factually inaccurate, can be more emotionally compelling than a dry recitation of the truth.

Frank Luntz

Healing takes courage, and we all have courage, even if we have to dig a little to find it.

Tori Amos

We have been led to imagine all sorts of things infinitely more marvelous than the imagining of poets and dreamers of the past. It shows that the imagination of nature is far, far greater than the imagination of man. For instance, how much more remarkable it is for us all to be stuck-half of us upside down-by a mysterious attraction, to a spinning ball that has been swinging in space for billions of years, than to be carried on the back of an elephant supported on a tortoise swimming in a bottomless sea.

Richard P. Feynman

A bachelor is a man who comes to work each morning from a different direction.

Sholom Aleichem

Whatever a man seeks, honors, or exalts more than God, this is the god of his idolatry.

William B. Ullathorne
