He who has injured thee was either stronger or weaker than thee. If weaker, spare him if stronger, spare thyself.

I love America. I'm not moving. It's cool. I just dont like seeing dead people.

Margaret Cho

Logic is like the sword

Samuel Butler, Notebooks

Prejudice is sinful. All blood flows red. And the most harmful and foolish kind of prejudice is prejudice against yourself. Every woman is your sister, and every woman needs her sisters. So try to give other women the courtesy of your compassion, respect, and forgiveness. Love yourself despite - and because of - your flaws.

Jewell Parker Rhodes

The mind grows sicker than the body in contemplation of it's suffering.

Ovid, Tristia, Bk. IV

I've never really been very good at marriage. It's one of my failures. I've tried my best, but I do realise the common denominator is me it's something I'm doing.

If there is a symbol of our age, perhaps it is something that every factory worker does each day of their working lives -- I refer to clocking in. (Very soon probably they won't even have to do that; the clock will itself observe them by radar.) In the ancient world when a person entered a temple, each made a votive offering to a god or a goddess at the door. As twentieth century people file into their shrines, they obediently pay their due to the god that regulates their lives -- the clock. It is the clock that measures us, that silent witness that keeps our going in and our coming out and relentlessly records our every movement. That is where all our organization and machinery to free us from time, to save us time, has brought us. Never before have we had such control over things, and never before have we been so enslaved by them. And of nothing is this more true than of time.

Evelyn Underhill, The Mastery of

If the history of science teaches us anything, it is that what conquers our ignorance is research, not giving up and attributing our ignorance to the miraculous work of a creator.

Jerry Coyne

I hope to keep entertaining in some way until I can't physically entertain any longer. It's what I was born to do, and I love this profession.

Bette Midler

The hypothesis of surviving intelligence and personality - not only surviving but anxious and able with difficulty to communicate - is the simplest and most straightforward and the only one that fits all the facts.

Oliver Joseph Lodge

I was just so lucky to have a wonderful life after a tough marriage.

Lynn Johnston

With my ministry of light, part of what I do is work on the California Alliance For Arts Education.

Sally Kirkland

I think professional sports, football, to use it as an example, it's fundamentally a form of entertainment.
