I like science fiction and physics, things like that. Planets being sucked into black holes, and the various vortexes that create possibility, and what happens on the other side of the black hole. To me it's the microcosmic study of the macrocosmic universe in man, and that's why I'm attracted to it.

The good are so harsh to the clever, the clever so rude to the good!

Elizabeth Wordsworth

Great men are the guideposts and landmarks in the state.

Edmund Burke

Better be alone than in bad company.

Thomas Fuller

The pornography of tough-mindedness, covert action, and preparedness for peace through strength has had a predictably hypnotic effect on the legislative branch, turning it from legal watchdog to lapdog.

Christopher Hitchens

Do not be misled by the fact that you are at liberty and relatively free; that for the moment you are not under lock and key: you have simply been granted a reprieve.

Ryszard Kapuscinski

Science is what you know, philosophy is what you don't know

Bertrand Russell

A teacher is a person who never says anything once.

Howard Nemerov

America is a model of force and freedom and moderation - with all the coarseness and rudeness of its people.

Lord Byron

No man is free who is not a master of himself.

Epictetus

Forget regret, or life is yours to miss.

Jonathan Larson

A sense is what has the power of receiving into itself the sensible forms of things without the matter, in the way in which a piece of wax takes on the impress of a signet-ring without the iron or gold.

Aristotle

You know that everyone thinks that in order to do South Park we must be wild, crazy, rock and roll stars. But the truth is we're just wholesome middle-American guys. We enjoy soda pop, baseball and beating up old people just as much as anybody.

Trey Parker
