I hope I left behind a legacy that people will enjoy. But whatever they want to say, I can't predict.

I believe that sex is one of the most beautiful, natural, wholesome things that money can buy.

Steve Martin

Family likeness has often a deep sadness in it. Nature, that great tragic dramatist, knits us together by bone and muscle, and divides us by the subtler web of our brains; blends yearning and repulsion; and ties us by our heart-strings to the beings that jar us at every movement.

George Eliot

Really, I have to laugh because there was a whole set of stories that made me sound like the Dragon Lady, you know, 'tough this and tough that.' Then there is this business about 'gooey.' The bottom line is I am a pragmatic idealist.

Madeleine Albright

Love is wise; hatred is foolish. In this world, which is getting more and more closely interconnected, we have to learn to tolerate each other, we have to learn to put up with the fact that some people say things that we don't like. We can only live together in that way. But if we are to live together, and not die together, we must learn a kind of charity and a kind of tolerance, which is absolutely vital to the continuation of human life on this planet.

Bertrand Russell

The difference between the men and the boys in politics is, and always has been, that the boys want to be something, while the men want to do something.

Eric Sevareid

Phil Ochs

I'd like to sing you a song now about my old girlfriend. It'scalled, They'll Find Her When the Leaves Blow Away 'Cause I'mNot Raking 'Til Spring.

Steven Wright

There are distinct duties of a poet laureate. I plan a reading series at the Library of Congress and advise the librarian. The rest is how I want to promote poetry.

Rita Dove

The basic answer is that I wasn't happy or fulfilled by the job I had and I wanted my life to mean something to me, so I searched my life experience and realized that acting and performing were activities that I enjoyed all aspects of.

Gil Gerard

My wife and I love to read. We're going to have to move out to make room for the books! And we have our dogs.

Gale Gordon

Goodness is about character - integrity, honesty, kindness, generosity, moral courage, and the like. More than anything else, it is about how we treat other people.

Dennis Prager

It's easier to date a football player for sure. Football players have one game a week, and they practice every day, but they're all at home. In basketball, they're on the road all the time.
