If I were just curious, it would be very hard to say to someone, I want to come to your house and have you talk to me and tell me the story of your life. I mean people are going to say, You're crazy. Plus they're going to keep mighty guarded. But the camera is a kind of license. A lot of people, they want to be paid that much attention and that's a reasonable kind of attention to be paid.

Richard H. Davis

Race differences show up early in life.

J. Philippe Rushton

They mutually support one other -- only in certain types of society can science flourish, and conversely without a continuous and healthy development and application of science such a society cannot function properly.

Talcott Parsons

Old forms of government finally grow so oppressive that they must be thrown off even at the risk of reigns of terror.

Herbert Spencer

If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.

Without health life is not life it is only a state of langour and suffering - an image of death.

Buddha

For what is your life? It is even a vapor, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away. James 4:14

Bible

The success of any stand-up act comes out of life experience.

Howie Mandel

From year to year, and from age to age, we see [biologists] at work, adding no doubt much to the unknown, and advancing many important interests, but, at the same time, doing little for the establishment of comprehensive views of nature. Experiments in however narrow a walk, facts of whatever minuteness, make reputations in scientific societies; all beyond is regarded with suspicion and distrust.

Robert Chambers

To be in a situation where you have no rights whatsoever is something I wish everybody could experience. People's attitudes would change. It would be a better place.

Tommy Chong

Living well is the best revenge.

George Herbert, Jacula Prudentum
