I'm going to be on the road for the rest of my life.

America beats on you so hard the whole time. You are constantly being pummeled by other people's rights and their sense of patriotism.

Richard Ford

In giving freedom to the slave, we assure freedom to the free -- honorable alike in what we give and what we preserve.

Abraham Lincoln

Don't you go believing in sayings, Picotee: they are all made by men, for their own advantages. Women who use public proverbs as a guide through events are those who have not ingenuity enough to make private ones as each event occurs.

Thomas Hardy

We are told that people stay in love because of chemistry, or because they remain intrigued with each other, because of many kindnesses, because of luck. But part of it has got to be forgiveness and gratefulness.

Ellen Goodman

There's a fine line between fishing, and standing on the shore like an idiot.

Steven Wright

Leaders grasp nettles.

David Ogilvy

The Non-Conformist Conscience makes cowards of us all.

Max Beerbohm

Religion flourishes in greater purity, without than with the aid of Government.

James Madison

The Marine Corps is the Navy's police force and as long as I am President that is what it will remain. They have a propaganda machine that is almost equal to Stalin's.

Harry S. Truman

Men's arguments often prove nothing but their wishes.

Charles Caleb Colton

Because these artists of the sixteenth century imitated human forms, they were not superior to the artists of the high periods of Egyptian, Chaldean, Indochinese, Roman, and Gothic art who interpreted and stylized form but did not imitate it.

Fernand Leger

When you're thirty-five, you can't take as much booze ... and I always got a little violent on drink...So it was kind of self-destructive suicide side of me, which is resolving itself for the better, I believe, because I never enjoyed it...

John Lennon
