The sun is but a morning star.

Henry David Thoreau

Man, so far as natural science by itself is able to teach us, is no longer the final cause of the universe, the Heaven-descended heir of all the ages. His very existence is an accident, his story a brief and transitory episode in the life of one of the meanest of the planets.

Arthur Balfour, The Foundations

When you're eight years old nothing is your business.

Lenny Bruce

You can practice to attain knowledge, but you can't practice to attain wisdom.

Herbie Hancock

She says your not truly human until you've had your heart broken and you've broken someone's heart.

Catherine Gilbert Murdock

Martin Luther King Jr.

Out there in some garage is an entrepreneur who’s forging a bullet with your company’s name on it.

Gary Hamel

If Harvey had not been taken from us 30 years ago, I think he would want me to say to all the gay and lesbian kids out there tonight who have been told they are less than by the churches, by the government, by their families, that you are beautiful, wonderful creatures of value, and that no matter what anyone tells you, God does love you and that very soon, I promise you, you will have equal rights, federally, across this great nation of ours.

Dustin Lance Black

The advantages found in history seem to be of three kinds, as it amuses the fancy, as it improves the understanding, and as it strengthens virtue.

David Hume

Instead of comparing our lot with that of those who are more fortunate than we are, we should compare it with the lot of the great majority of our fellow men. It then appears that we are among the privileged.

Helen Keller

Sometimes airport security people recognize me. I'll go through the whole screening process and at the end they'll go, 'Hey, man, I really like your work.' That's so cool.

Reggie Watts
