Harmony with land is like harmony with a friend you cannot cherish his right hand and chop off his left.

If alcohol is queen, then tobacco is her consort. It's a fond companion for all occasions, a loyal friend through fair weather and foul. People smoke to celebrate a happy moment, or to hide a bitter regret. Whether you're alone or with friends, it's a joy for all the senses. What lovelier sight is there than that double row of white cigarettes, lined up like soldiers on parade and wrapped in silver paper? I love to touch the pack in my pocket, open it, savor the feel of the cigarette between my fingers, the paper on my lips, the taste of tobacco on my tongue. I love to watch the flame spurt up, love to watch it come closer and closer, filling me with its warmth.

Luis Bunuel

I think the American people, understandably, have sort of lost faith in the United Nations.

Cliff Stearns

I love a lot of the New York bands, but Patti Smith stands out. I just read 'Just Kids' and it's an inspirational, well-written account of an emerging New York artist in the late seventies.

James Iha

I don't set trends. I just find out what they are and exploit them.

Dick Clark

The United States are a political state, or organized society, whose end is government, for the security, welfare, and happiness of all who live under its protection.

William H. Seward

I don't want to miss out on the chance of having a good time.

Victor Webster

Every branch of human knowledge, if traced up to its source and final principles, vanishes into mystery.

Arthur Machen

One feels inclined to say that the intention that man should be happy is not included in the plan of Creation.

Sigmund Freud

I must learn to love the fool in me the one who feels too much, talks too much, takes too many chances, wins sometimes and loses often, lacks self-control, loves and hates, hurts and gets hurt, promises and breaks promises, laughs and cries.

Theodore Rubin, Love Me, Love My

If cats looked like frogs we'd realize what nasty, cruel little bastards they are. Style. That's what people remember.

Terry Pratchett

I think what drove me insane for a long time is feeling like I hadn't earned most of what I achieved because it came so fast.

Charlie Sheen

He didn't think he belonged here, so she was making him face some uncomfortable facts. People adapt. People change. You can grow where you're planted.
