I'm very gregarious, but I love being in the hills on my own.

If thou wouldn't conquer thy weakness thou must not gratify it.

William Penn

One of the great liabilities of history is that all too many people fail to remain awake through great periods of social change. Every society has its protectors of status quo and its fraternities of the indifferent who are notorious for sleeping through revolutions. Today, our very survival depends on our ability to stay awake, to adjust to new ideas, to remain vigilant and to face the challenge of change.

Martin Luther King Jr.

The central drama of our age is how the Western nations and the Asian peoples are to find a tolerable basis of co-existence.

I hate it when my foot falls asleep during the day because thatmeans it's going to be up all night.

Steven Wright

A refined simplicity is the characteristic of all high bred deportment, in every country, and a considerate humanity should be the aim of all beneath it.

James Fenimore Cooper

We have become a society that can't self-correct, that can't address its obvious problems, that can't pull out of its nosedive. And so to our list of disasters let us add this fourth entry: we have entered an age of folly that - for all our Facebooking and the twittling tweedle-dee-tweets of the twitterati - we can't wake up from.

Thomas Frank

The pleasure of living and the pleasure of the orgasm are identical. Extreme orgasm anxiety forms the basis of the general fear of life.

Wilhelm Reich

Too much humility is pride.

Proverb

The multitude is always wrong.

Proverb

I love comedy, so you want to make them happy, make them laugh.

Delta Burke

You must understand that love never keeps a man from pursuing his destiny. If he abandons that pursuit, it's because it wasn't true love.

Paulo Coelho

Once we have a war there is only one thing to do. It must be won. For defeat brings worse things than any that can ever happen in war.

Ernest Hemingway
