God is not needed to create guilt or to punish. Our fellow men suffice, aided by ourselves.

I'm all about change, and I know things are going to move forward in life, and that's just how it goes.

Kid Rock

Wisdom is the right use of knowledge. To know is not to be wise. Many men know a great deal, and are all the greater fools for it. There is no fool so great a fool as a knowing fool. But to know how to use knowledge is to have wisdom.

Charles Spurgeon

Ares always reemerges from the chaos. It will never go away. Athenian civilization defends itself from the forces of Ares with metis, or technology. Technology is built on science. Science is like the alchemists' uroburos, continually eating its own tail. The process of science doesn't work unless young scientists have the freedom to attack and tear down old dogmas, to engage in an ongoing Titanomachia. Science flourishes where art and free speech flourish.

Neal Stephenson

Don't worry about the world coming to an end today. It's already tomorrow in Australia.

Charles Monroe Schulz

He suffered from a rush of words to the head.

Herbert Samuel

I want everyone to tell me the truth, even if it costs him his job.

Samuel Goldwyn

Education begins at home and I applaud the parents who recognize that they - not someone else - must take responsibility to assure that their children are well educated.

Ernest Istook

I sometimes talk about the making of a poem within the poem.

Howard Nemerov

Evil is unspectacular and always human, and shares our bed and eats at our own table.

W. H. Auden

Creative people see Prometheus in a mirror, never Pandora.

David Brin

Little boats should keep near shore

Benjamin Franklin

I was the little, funny one. I felt I was the child among grown women.

Julie Walters
