Humor is just another defense against the universe.

When we are convinced of some great truths, and feel our convictions keenly, we must not fear to express it, although others have said it before us. Every thought is new when an author expresses it in a manner peculiar to himself.

Luc De Clapiers

They told me that I had a leaky valve, which is something that is certainly not life-threatening. It's common and it's something that had I not known about it, would I have lived? Sure. But it's something that I think is important to know, especially as I get older and given that I have heart disease in my family.

Jennie Garth

I think I'll work all my life. When you're having fun, why stop having fun?

Helen Thomas

What every genuine philosopher (every genuine man, in fact) craves most is praise -- although the philosophers generally call it recognition!

William James

But, sooner or later I'd love to do a comedy. I mean I think that, you know, people don't think that that's in my wheelhouse because I've sort of played a lot of dramatic stuff and that's certainly a side of myself that I want at some point in the right context, in the right stuff, that I find really funny.

Matthew Fox

Freedom is the most contagious virus known to man.

Hubert H. Humphrey

The cultural expectation should be if there's infidelity, the marriage is more important than fidelity.

Dan Savage

Problems are only opportunities with thorns on them.

Hugh Miller

Oh man. If I had magic powers... I would hope that I would use them for good. I think I would. But I would do something pretty trivial like making traffic disappear.

Nick Stahl

For, he that expects nothing shall not be disappointed, but he that expects much -- if he lives and uses that in hand day by day -- shall be full to running over.

Edgar Cayce

He is dead in this world who has no belief in another.

Johann von Goethe

While I did not fancy myself a particularly good person, I never thought my first real sexual action would be prostitutional.

John Green
