When irony first makes itself known in a young man's life, it can be like his first experience of getting drunk; he has met with a powerful thing which he does not know how to handle.

I don't do something necessarily to make a big profit or because it's a logical business decision.

James Dyson

I guess when you turn off the main road, you have to be prepared to see some funny houses.

Stephen King

The most important single ingredient in the formula of success is knowing how to get along with people.

Theodore Roosevelt

When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading.

Henny Youngman

Oh, for boyhood's painless play, Sleep that wakes in laughing day,Health that mocks the doctor's rules,Knowledge never learned of schools.

John Greenleaf Whittier, The Bar

Factory farming is one of the biggest contributors to the most serious environmental problems. The meat industry causes more greenhouse gas emissions than all the cars, trucks, planes and ships in the world.

Joan Jett

If you think spreading money around by force seems like an odd definition of fairness, you're not alone.

Arthur C. Brooks

I had drunk much wine and afterward coffee and Strega and I explained, winefully, how we did not do the things we wanted to do; we never did such things.

Ernest Hemingway

Marriage is distinctly and repeatedly excluded from heaven. Is this because it is thought likely to mar the general felicity?

Samuel Butler

I have prayed to God that he give me the strength to survive each day and to face those times in my life that will be extremely painful. I have put my total faith in God, and he will take care of me.

Susan Smith

I once laughed at the vanity of women of thirty or forty who whitened their ruddy old skin with lead, but now I know such salves are not disguises for old crones who wish to catch a young husband. Instead they are only a mask we wear so that we can, for a little while, still recognize ourselves.

Rebecca Johns

Silence is the perfectos herald of joy. I were but little happy if I could say how much.

William Shakespeare
