It's the heart that really matters in the end.

A miser grows rich by seeming poor. An extravagant man grows poor by seeming rich.

William Shakespeare

I tell you in truth: all men are Prophets or else God does not exist.

Jean-Paul Sartre

...the 'size' of science has doubled steadily every 15 years. In a century this means a factor of 100. For every single scientific paper or for every single scientist in 1670, there were 100 in 1770, 10,000 in 1870 and 1,000,000 in 1970.

John Ziman

Slums may well be breeding-grounds of crime, but middle-class suburbs are incubators of apathy and delirium.

Cyril Connolly

A man must first care for his own household before he can be of use to the state. But no matter how well he cares for his household, he is not a good citizen unless he also takes thought of the state. In the same way, a great nation must think of its own internal affairs; and yet it cannot substantiate its claim to be a great nation unless it also thinks of its position in the world at large.

Theodore Roosevelt

The more horrifying this world becomes, the more art becomes abstract.

Paul Klee

'Dr. Strangelove' was and is one of my favorite movies ever, and I just can't believe they actually blew up the world after that.

Gary Ross

What's so touching is the way we fight the war right until the moment our business is taken care of and then we turn on a dime and we immediately start taking care of people. It's like a shock and aw shucks campaign.

Dennis Miller

If a teacher does not involve himself, his values, his commitments, in the course of discussion, why should the students?

Paul Wellstone

Faith is permitting ourselves to be seized by the things we do not see.

Martin Luther

The truth is that the average schoolmaster, on all the lower levels, is and always must be essentially and next door to an idiot, for how can one imagine an intelligent man engaging in so puerile an avocation?

H. L. Mencken

Having bodyguards is just part of being famous, I think.

Dolph Lundgren
