I love my mother Ali so much. I'm a momma's boy. I just have a very cool mom. It's not as though I had any say in the matter. I'm just really fortunate. She's the most kind, loving, giving woman.

In my dreams I am not crippled. In my dreams, I dance.

Louise Brooks

Germaine Greer

Life is just a bowl of pits.

Rodney Dangerfield

It's a strange world of language in which skating on thin ice can get you into hot water.

Franklin P. Jones

We never with our eyes saw our own soul; yet we have a soul. We see many rivers, but we know not their first spring and original fountain; yet they have a beginning. ...When ye are come to the other side...set down your foot on the shore of glorious eternity, and look back again to the waters and to your wearisome journey, and shall see, in that clear glass of endless glory, nearer to the bottom of God's wisdom, ye shall then be forced to say, 'If God had done otherwise with me than He hath done, I had never come to the enjoying of this crown of glory.' It is your part now to believe, and suffer, and hope, and wait on...

Samuel Rutherford, Letters , V.

It's not the voting that's democracy it's the counting.

Tom Stoppard

The word vagina is a beautiful word, like all words that have v's and g's in them, like gavel, or evangelical. I love vaginas, and evangelicals. I fucking hate gavels though.

Ze Frank

In the field of sports you are more or less accepted for what you do rather than what you are.

Althea Gibson

Holbrook Jackson

The world is populated in the main by people who should not exist.

George Bernard Shaw

Yes, it's a man's world, but that's all right because they're making a total mess of it. We're chipping away at their control, taking the parts we want. Some women think it's a difficult task, but it's not.

Cher

We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature -- trees, flowers, grass -- grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence. We need silence to be able to touch souls.

Mother Theresa
