Friedrich Nietzsche

Its easier to stay out than get out

Mark Twain

We cannot sacrifice innocent human life now for vague and exaggerated promises of medical treatments thirty of forty years from now. There are ways to pursue this technology and respect life at the same time.

Walt Whitman

So obviously, any religion embodies some form of rules and expectations for behavior, and even sometimes consequences, and they don't want to hear any of that.

Pat Boone

You have despoiled churches. You have threatened every corporation and endowment in the country. You have examined into everybodys affairs. You have criticised every profession and vexed every trade. No one is certain of his property, and nobody knows what duties he may have to perform to-morrow. This is the policy of confiscation as compared with that of concurrent endowment.

Benjamin Disraeli

Promise is the capacity for letting people down.

Cyril Connolly, Enemies of Promi

I've never been married, but I tell people I'm divorced so they won't think something's wrong with me.

Elayne Boosler

So my great love for thee lies tranquil, deep, Forever; though above it passions fierce, Ambition, hatred, jealousy; like waves That seem from earth's core to the sky to leap, But ocean's depths can never really pierce; Hide its great calm, while all the surface raves.

Francis William Bourdillon

Most of my relationships have been like that - with record companies. I've never had a legitimate business relationship with a company. I've always had a personal relationship with someone in the company.

Ornette Coleman
