Where is all the knowledge we lost with information?

Knowledge is power. Information is liberating. Education is the premise of progress, in every society, in every family.

What I've discovered is that in art, as in music, there's a lot of truth-and then there's a lie. The artist is essentially creating his work to make this lie a truth, but he slides it in amongst all the others. The tiny little lie is the moment I live for, my moment. It's the moment that the audience falls in love.

Now, I have always wanted to agree with Lady Bracknell that there is no earthly use for the upper and lower classes unless they set each other a good example. But I shouldn't pretend that the consensus itself was any of my concern. It was absurd and slightly despicable, in the first decade of Thatcher and Reagan, to hear former and actual radicals intone piously against 'the politics of confrontation.' I suppose that, if this collection has a point, it is the desire of one individual to see the idea of confrontation kept alive.

Christopher Hitchens

That's the definition of 'success' for the modern Democrat Party. As many people dependent on government as possible is the objective.

Rush Limbaugh

Why has it seemed that the only way to protect the environment is with heavy-handed government regulation?

Gale Norton

Love is a war of all for all. That is why we must covet our neighbors as ourselves.

Bauvard

I care not so much what I am in the opinion of others, as what I am in my own; I would be rich of myself and not by borrowing.

Michel de Montaigne

I want, of course, peace, grace, and beauty. How do you do that? You work for it.

Studs Terkel

My parents, and librarians along the way, taught me about the space between words about the margins, where so many juicy moments of life and spirit and friendship could be found. In a library, you could find miracles and truth and you might find something that would make you laugh so hard that you get shushed, in the friendliest way.

Anne Lamott

Happiness is beneficial for the body, but it is grief that develops the powers of the mind.

Marcel Proust

When we were at peace, Democrats wanted to raise taxes. Now there's a war, so Democrats want to raise taxes. When there was a surplus, Democrats wanted to raise taxes. Now that there is a mild recession, Democrats want to raise taxes.

Ann Coulter

We should never wait for science to give us permission to do the uncommon; if we do, then we are turning science into another religion.
