The main thing is that it's nice to see these young people - 9 to 14 years old - take the opportunity to get more involved in their health and fitness. We need more kids to be more active.

Economy is the basis of society. When the economy is stable, society develops. The ideal economy combines the spiritual and the material, and the best commodities to trade in are sincerity and love.

Morihei Ueshiba

The overall picture, as the boys say, is of a degraded community whose idealism even is largely fake. The pretentiousness, the bogus enthusiasm, the constant drinking, the incessant squabbling over money, the all-pervasive agent, the strutting of the big shots (and their usually utter incompetence to achieve anything they start out to do), the constant fear of losing all this fairy gold and being the nothing they have never ceased to be, the snide tricks, the whole damn mess is out of this world.

Raymond Chandler

Don't like small talk, love rainy days.

Melissa Gilbert

Big Star invented a vision of bohemian rock &amp roll cool that had nothing to do with New York, Los Angeles or London, which made them completely out of style in the 1970s, but also made them an inspiration to generations of weird Southern kids.

Rob Sheffield

There are three roads to ruin; women, gambling and technicians. The most pleasant is with women, the quickest is with gambling, but the surest is with technicians.

Georges Pompidou

I knew I could not maintain that leadership in open struggle against Moscow influence. Only two Communist leaders in history ever succeeded in doing this - Tito and Mao Tse-tung.

Earl Browder

I've got a new relationship and I'm trapped in this old life.

Moon Unit Zappa

Tongues in trees, books in running brooks, sermons in stones, and good in everything.

William Shakespeare

He who learns but does not think, is lost! He who thinks but does not learn is in great danger.

Confucius

We are but tenants and shortly the great landlord will give us notice that our lease has expired.

Joseph Jefferson

Pale death with an impartial foot knocks at the hovels of the poor and the palaces of king.

Horace

I am very fond of truth, but not at all of martyrdom.

Voltaire
