Humility is nothing but truth, and pride is nothing but lying.

Politics ought to be the part-time profession of every citizen who would protect the rights and privileges of free people and who would preserve what is good and fruitful in our national heritage.

Dwight D. Eisenhower

I always advice people - Don't wait ! Do something when you are young, when you have no responsibilities. Invest time in yourself to have great Experiences that are going to enrich you, then you can't possibly lose.

Steve Jobs

America's intellectual community has never been very bright. Or honest. They're all sheep, following whatever the intellectual fashion of the decade happens to be. Demanding that everyone follow their dicta in lockstep. Everyone has to be open-minded and tolerant of the things they believe, but God forbid they should ever concede, even for a moment, that someone who disagrees with them might have some fingerhold of truth.

Orson Scott Card

Questioning is not the mode of conversation among gentlemen

Samuel Johnson

I don't remember any sibling rivalry growing up, because by the time I was really conscious, Tom was going away to college. My relationship with him, which is a very close one, really developed in more recent years.

David Hyde Pierce

Lunch kills half of Paris, supper the other half.

Charles Montesquieu

An intellectual is a person who has discovered something more interesting than sex.

Aldous Huxley

Nothing is true, but that which is simple.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

In youth the human body drew me and was the object of my secret and natural dreams. But body after body has taken away from me that sensual phosphorescence which my youth delighted in. Within me is no disturbing interplay now, but only the steady currents of adaptation and of sympathy.

Haniel Long

A girl phoned me the other day and said, Come on over, there's nobody home. I went over, nobody was home.

Rodney Dangerfield

The one way to get thin is to re-establish a purpose in life.

Cyril Connolly

I don't want to discredit people's individuality, but I think people are pretty much the same. People are very similar. If you have a good enough imagination then you can feel things that you personally have never done before. That's acting.

Kristen Stewart
