When I was little I thought, isn't it nice that everybody celebrates on my birthday? Because it's July 4th.

I used to travel in tennis shoes I am just not allowed to anymore. I'm an old hippie from San Francisco.

Amy Irving

Good judgment comes from experience and experience comes from bad judgment.

Fred Brooks

The more relaxed you are, the better you are at everything--the better you are with your loved ones, the better you are with enemies, the better you are at your job, the better you are with yourself.

Bill Murray

Live in the sunshine, swim the sea, drink the wild air

Ralph Waldo Emerson

I turned on VH1 this morning just to get a little warm-up before I came over here, and I think it's just terrific. There's so much great stuff: diverse and wonderful music, good performances, great looking girls, great videos, the whole thing.

Debbie Harry

The only traditions of the Royal Navy are rum, sodomy and the lash.

Sir Winston Churchill

Henry Ford

Actual life was chaos, but there was something terribly logical in the imagination. It was the imagination that set remorse to dog the feet of sin. It was the imagination that made each crime bear its misshapen brood. In the common world of fact the wicked were not punished, nor the good rewarded. Success was given to the strong, failure thrust upon the weak. That was all.

Oscar Wilde
