I'm looking forward to the peace of mind to just write... Songwriting is something that I just fell into. I never expected to love it. But I've always had to kind of treat it like a hobby. Now it's going to feel so good to know that I can just sit down and write.

Who picks your clothes - Stevie Wonder?

Don Rickles

Only men who are not interested in women are interested in women's clothes. Men who like women never notice what they wear.

Anatole France

Human societies, like human beings, live by faith and die when faith dies.

Whittaker Chambers

Since the beginning of the 21st century, thanks to the concerted efforts of both sides, China-U.S. relationship has on the whole enjoyed steady growth. Since President Obama took office, we have maintained close contact through exchange of visits, meetings, telephone conversations and letters.

Hu Jintao

In this atmosphere of general discouragement, it is tempting to attack something that is sufficiently linked to the powers-that-be so as not to appear very sympathetic, but sufficiently weak to be a more-or-less accessible target (since the concentration of power and money are beyond reach). Science fulfills these conditions, and this partly explains the attacks against it.

Alan Sokal

We were told this war would be over in a matter of weeks, and that the Iraqis would be able to finance it with oil sales. We were promised it was not a mission of nation building.

Sherrod Brown

Instinct is untaught ability.

Alexander Bain

You may chisel a boy into shape, as you would a rock, or hammer him into it, if he be of a better kind, as you would a piece of bronze. But you cannot hammer a girl into anything. She grows as a flower does.

John Ruskin

In wartime, truth is so precious that she should always be attended by a bodyguard of lies.

Winston Churchill

Ignorance, when it is voluntary, is criminal; and he may be properly charged with evil who refused to learn how he might prevent it

Samuel Johnson

Each one prays to God according to his own light.

Mahatma Gandhi

It is quite true what Philosophy says: that Life must be understood backwards. But that makes one forget the other saying: that it must be lived --forwards. The more one ponders this, the more it comes to mean that life in the temporal existence never becomes quite intelligible, precisely because at no moment can I find complete quiet to take the backward-looking position.
