The life expectancy in Hong Kong is among the highest in the world... you can come to only one conclusion: we have the most environmentally friendly place for people, for executives, for Hong Kong people to live

Every mystery ever solved had been a puzzle from the dawn of the human species right up until someone solved it.

Eliezer Yudkowsky

Art is so wonderfully irrational, exuberantly pointless, but necessary all the same. Pointless and yet necessary, that's hard for a puritan to understand.

Gunther Grass

Those questions you have? Whether he's the one, whether you feel about him the way you should, or whether the relationship is going okay? When you're not sure whether you're in love with someone or not, the answer is not.

Deb Caletti

The penalty good men pay for indifference to public affairs is to be ruled by evil men

Plato

The genius of capitalism consists precisely in its lack of morality. Unless he is rich enough to hire his own choir, a capitalist is a fellow who, by definition, can ill afford to believe in anything other than the doctrine of the bottom line. Deprive a capitalist of his God-given right to lie and cheat and steal, and the poor sap stands a better than even chance of becoming one of the abominable wards of the state from whose grimy fingers the Reagan Administration hopes to snatch the ark of democracy.

Lewis H. Lapham

Listen, my friend, there are two races of beings. The masses teeming and happy --common clay, if you like --eating, breeding, working, counting their pennies; people who just live; ordinary people; people you can't imagine dead. And then there are the others --the noble ones, the heroes. The ones you can quite well imagine lying shot, pale and tragic; one minute triumphant with a guard of honor, and the next being marched away between two gendarmes.

Jean Anouilh

A person may dwell so long upon a thought that it may take him a prisoner.

Edward F. Halifax

I believe in local control of education.

Russ Feingold

Stupidity is without anxiety.

Johann von Goethe

All the heroes, the fire fighters and police men are dying. Don't forget them, many are still alive.

James Dye

An act of love that fails is just as much a part of the divine life as an act of love that succeeds, for love is measured by fullness, not by reception.

Harold Lokes

It's horrible how money and fame can make you acceptable while, if you're not famous or rich, you're not acceptable.

Bruno Tonioli
