I love that men like to look at women, that they love sports, that they need to know the inner workings of mechanical objects. I love the whole makeup of men - that they never mature and are always just boys.

My mom just understands about stuff. We have a really good trust, and she knows I can take care of myself.

Balthazar Getty

In the history of America, we've never had an energy plan. We don't even realize the resources we have available to us.

T. Boone Pickens

We must distinguish between a mood and its intellectual expression. There is no arguing with mood; it can be changed by some fortunate event, or by a change in our bodily condition, but it cannot be changed by argument.

Bertrand Russell

A long dispute means that both parties are wrong

Voltaire (FrançoisMarie Arouet)

I'm well-travelled so I can see places coming up. I went to St. Croix in the West Indies at Christmas and it had been hit by a really bad tornado. Values there have gone down but I guarantee they will be up again in eight years. So I'll get in now while it's cheap as chips.

Melanie Brown

There is an electric fire in human nature tending to purify -- so that among these human creatures there is continually some birth of new heroism. The pity is that we must wonder at it, as we should at finding a pearl in rubbish.

John Keats

Language is the pedigree of nations.

Johnson

There are only two sorts of people in life you can trust -- good Christians and good Communists.

Joe Slovo

In old days there were angels who came and took men by the hand and led them away from the city of destruction. We see no white-winged angels now. But yet men are led away from threatening destruction: a hand is put into theirs, which leads them forth gently towards a calm and bright land, so that they look no more backward; and the hand may be a little child's.

George Eliot

Anyone can become angry that is easy. But to be angry with the right person, to the right degree, at the right time, for the right purpose, and in the right way; this is not easy.

Aristotle

Women are constantly trying to commit suicide for love, but generally they take care not to succeed.

W. Somerset Maugham

If we actually thought about every decision we made, we'd be paralyzed ... You have to decide which decisions you're actually going to make, and then you have to let the rest of them go.

David Levithan
