Intellectually I know America is no better than any other country; emotionally I know she is better than every other country.

When I was growing up, particularly during puberty in my teen years, I was so miserable because I elicited so much teasing and meanness from my teenage cohorts.

Linda Hunt

Love is the active, working principle in all true faith. It is its very soul, without which it is dead. Faith works by love.

Jonathan Edwards

If the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.

Bible

Josh McDowell

I read Freud's Introductory Lectures in Psychoanalysis in basically one sitting. I decided to enroll in medical school. It was almost like a conversion experience.

Stanislav Grof

For the woman, the man is a means: the end is always the child.

Friedrich Nietzsche

There is no such thing as pure pleasure; some anxiety always goes with it.

Ovid

I agree with you, Mr. Chairman, that the working men are the basis of all governments, for the plain reason that they are the more numerous, and as you added that those were the sentiments of the gentlemen present, representing not only the working class, but citizens of other callings than those of the mechanic, I am happy to concur with you in these sentiments, not only of the native born citizens, but also of the Germans and foreigners from other countries.

Abraham Lincoln

NO. No no no. I don't want to screw you. I just love you. When did who you want to screw become the whole game? Since when is the person you want to screw the only person you get to love? It's so stupid, Tiny! I mean, Jesus, who even gives a fuck about sex?! People act like it's the most important thing humans do, but come on. How can our sentient fucking lives revolve around something slugs can do. I mean, who you want to screw and whether you screw them? Those are important questions, I guess. But they're not that important. You know what's important? Who would you die for? Who do you wake up at five forty-five in the morning for even though you don't even know why he needs you? Whose drunken nose would you pick?!

John Green

You know what's wrong with scientific power? It's a form of inherited wealth. And you know what assholes congenitally rich people are.

Michael Crichton

Until you have suffered much in your heart, you cannot learn humility.

Elder Thaddeus of Vitovnica

One of the greatest journeys in life is overcoming insecurity and learning to truly not give a shit.
