Like most science-fiction writers, Trout knew almost nothing about science.

I love being in a relationship, but marriage isn't for me.

Arsenio Hall

The best men are not those who have waited for chances but who have taken them; besieged the chance; conquered the chance; and made chance the servitor.

Edwin Hubbell Chapin

If my films don't show a profit, I know I'm doing something right.

Woody Allen

As an artist I come to sing, but as a citizen, I will always speak for peace, and no one can silence me in this.

Paul Robeson

I start to think there really is no cure for depression, that happiness is an ongoing battle, and I wonder if it isn't one I'll have to fight for as long as I live. I wonder if it's worth it.

Elizabeth Wurtzel

This is a confusing and uncertain period, when a thousand wise words can go completely unnoticed, and one thoughtless word can provoke an utterly nonsensical furor.

Vaclav Havel

One hardly knows where, in the history of science, to look for an important movement that had its effective start in so pure and simple an accident as that which led to the building of the great Washington telescope, and went on to the discovery of the satellites of Mars.

Simon Newcomb

Was his very boyishness the reason he was chosen? In that case, was it not a virtue to be admired, and not a failing to be despised?

Orson Scott Card

It is not enough to be good. You must be good for something. You must contribute good to the world. The world must be a better place for your presence. And the good that is in you must be spread to others. In this world so filled with problems, so constantly threatened by dark and evil challenges, you can and must rise above mediocrity, above indifference. You can become involved and speak with a strong voice for that which is right.http://www.zionsbest.com/pessimism.html

Gordon B. Hinckley

Jazz took too much discipline. You have to come in at the right place, which is different than me singing the blues, where I can sing, 'Oh, baby,' if there's a pause in the melody. With jazz, you better leave that space open, or put in something real cool.

Etta James

When you part from your friend,you grieve not;For that which you love most in himmay be clearer in his absence,as the mountain to the climberis clearer from the plain.

Kahlil Gibran

Have you noticed in your past experience that your kind interpretations were almost always truer than you harsh one?

Lawrence G. Lovasik
