I fear God and next to God I mostly fear them that fear him not.

The old cathedrals are good, but the great blue dome that hangs over everything is better.

Thomas Carlyle

Besides the mistakes that are pointed out, I love the way readers become involved with the characters. When readers start asking about character motivations instead of concentrating on the special effects, it means you're connecting with them on a personal level.

Alan Dean Foster

I liked being a teenager, but I would not go back for all the tea in China.

Rob Lowe

It's a massive motor in a tiny, lightweight car.

Carroll Shelby

Everyone carries his own inch rule of taste, and amuse himself by applying it, triumphantly, wherever he travels.

Henry Adams

Work and thou canst escape the reward; whether the work be fine or course, planting corn or writing epics, so only it be honest work, done to thine own approbation, it shall earn a reward to the senses as well as to the thought.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Husbands are chiefly good as lovers when they are betraying their wives.

Marilyn Monroe

Courage and perseverance have a magical talisman, before which difficulties disappear and obstacles vanish into air.

John Quincy Adams

How very paltry and limited the normal human intellect is, and how little lucidity there is in the human consciousness, may be judged from the fact that, despite the ephemeral brevity of human life, the uncertainty of our existence and the countless enigmas which press upon us from all sides, everyone does not continually and ceaselessly philosophize, but that only the rarest of exceptions do.

Arthur Schopenhauer

I like women. I don't understand them, but I like them.

Sean Connery

Remember if you marry for beauty, thou bindest thyself all thy life for that which perchance, will neither last nor please thee one year: and when thou hast it, it will be to thee of no price at all.

Sir Walter Raleigh

Like what you do, if you don't like it, do something else.

Paul Harvey
