I had a very funny family.

I am an American citizen and it is my home now. I like the U.S.A., which is not a place too many people have liked since Bush. The U.S. has a young population, and everything can change within a year.

John Milius

Everyone believes very easily whatever they fear or desire.

Jean de La Fontaine

He is a great enough magician to tap our most common nightmares, daydreams and twilight fancies, but he never invented them either: he found them a place to live, a green alternative to each day's madness here in a poisoned world.

Peter S. Beagle

If Jesus was here, do you think Jesus would show me any love? Do you think Jesus would love me?

Mike Tyson

Dale Carnegie

Even the gods love jokes

Plato

Each mans spills the drink he loves.

Robert Anton Wilson

The supreme lesson of any education should be to think for yourself and to be yourself absent this attainment, education creates dangerous, stupefying conformity.

Bryant McGill

If you find a good solution and become attached to it, the solution may become your next problem.

Dr. Robert Anthony

For a long time, I really struggled with the idea of being an actor because I really felt that I should be in the Peace Corps.
