The good news about computers is that they do what you tell them to do. The bad news is that they do what you tell them to do.

It is wrong always, everywhere, and for everyone, to believe anything upon insufficient evidence.

William James

A simple compliment goes a really long way - for a guy to just come over and say, 'You have great hair' or 'I really like your dress,' and then just smile and walk away. That's a great move, because he's sort of putting himself out there by doing that, but it won't lead to any embarrassment if the girl isn't interested.

Stacy Keibler

Truth dont require the aid ov elegant and high stepping words, tew express its force, or buty, it iz like water, tastes better out ov a wooden bucket, than it duz out ov a golden goblet.

Josh Billings

No sooner does man discover intelligence than he tries to involve it in his own stupidity.

Jacques Yves Cousteau

Fairness means everyone gets what they need. And the only way to get what you need is to make it happen yourself.

Rick Riordan

Don't bother about being modern. Unfortunately it is the one thing that, whatever you do, you cannot avoid.

Salvador Dali

To sit in judgment of those things which you perceive to be wrong or imperfect is to be one more person who is part of judgment, evil or imperfection.

Wayne Dyer

It lies in human nature that where you experience your first laughs, you also remember the age kindly.

Vaclav Havel

Once you become famous, there is nothing left to become but infamous.

Don Johnson

All the technology of our production was still pre-War. They were sort of '38, '39 and the War had been stable and so we were infinitely behind whatever had been going on in the United States for instance.

Gianni Agnelli

As pure water poured into pure water becomes the very same, so does the Self of the illumined man or woman verily become one with the Godhead.

Katha Upanishad

I became a so-called science fiction writer when someone decreed that I was a science fiction writer. I did not want to be classified as one, so I wondered in what way I'd offended that I would not get credit for being a serious writer. I decided that it was because I wrote about technology, and most fine American writers know nothing about technology. I got classified as a science fiction writer simply because I wrote about Schenectady, New York. My first book, Player Piano, was about Schenectady. There are huge factories in Schenectady and nothing else. I and my associates were engineers, physicists, chemists, and mathematicians. And when I wrote about the General Electric Company and Schenectady, it seemed a fantasy of the future to critics who had never seen the place.
