I just want to be rich and famous.

No matter how well you perform there's always somebody of intelligent opinion who thinks it's lousy.

Sir Laurence Olivier

The first requisite of a sound monetary system is that it put the least possible power over the quantity or quality of money in the hands of the politicians.

Henry Hazlitt

Truth is a golden thread, seen here and there In small bright specks upon the visible side Of our strange being's party-coloured web.

Arthur Hugh Clough

Good company in a journey makes the way seem shorter.

Izaak Walton

Mike Patton is a genius... It is definitely the hardest music I've ever played.

Dave Lombardo

The waking mind is the least serviceable in the arts.

Henry Miller

Power is not sufficient evidence of truth.

Samuel Johnson

My personal theory is that he has a very firm grasp upon reality, it's simply not a reality the rest of us have ever met before.

Terry Pratchett

Dignify and glorify common labor. It is at the bottom of life that we must begin, not at the top.

Booker T. Washington

Occasionally in life there are those moments of unutterable fulfillment which cannot be completely explained by those symbols called words. Their meaning can only be articulated by the inaudible language of the heart. Such is the moment I am presently experiencing. I experience this high and joyous moment not for myself alone but for those devotees of nonviolence who have moved so courageously against the ramparts of racial injustice and who in the process have acquired a new estimate of their own human worth. Many of them are young and cultured. Others are middle aged and middle class. The majority are poor and untutored. But they are all united in the quiet conviction that it is better to suffer in dignity than to accept segregation in humiliation. These are the real heroes of the freedom struggle: they are the noble people for whom I accept the Nobel Peace Prize.

Martin Luther King, Jr.

But I am not going to live for ever. And the more I know it, the more amazed I am by being here at all.

William Hurt

Such is hope, heaven's own gift to struggling mortals, pervading, like some subtle essence from the skies, all things both good and bad.

Charles Dickens
