No man is a hypocrite in his pleasures.

The nature of rumor is known to all.

Tertullian

The dialogue of architecture has been centered too long around the idea of truth.

Michael Graves

Only that day dawns to which we are awake. There is more day to dawn. The sun is but a morning star.

Henry David Thoreau

Truly, I would not hang a dog by my will, much more a man who hath any honesty in him.

William Shakespeare

Nothing is a greater impediment to being on good terms with others than being ill at ease with yourself.

Honore de Balzac

Past and present religious atrocities have occured not because we are evil, but because it is a fact of nature that the human species is, biologically, only partly rational. Evolution has meant that our prefrontal lobes are too small, our adrenal glands are too big, and our reproductive organs apparently designed by committee; a recipe which, alone or in combination, is very certain to lead to some unhappiness and disorder.

Christopher Hitchens

Happiness is not something you postpone for the future; it is something you design for the present.

Jim Rohn

Somehow I can't believe that there are any heights that can't be scaled by a man who knows the secrets of making dreams come true. This special secret, it seems to me, can be summarized in four C s. They are curiosity, confidence, courage, and constancy.

Walt Disney

Learning to dislike children at an early age saves a lot of expense and aggravation later in life.

Robert Byrne

Our national debt after all is an internal debt owed not only by the Nation but to the Nation. If our children have to pay interest on it they will pay that interest to themselves. A reasonable internal debt will not impoverish our children or put the Nation into bankruptcy.

Franklin D. Roosevelt

Men seek rest in a struggle against difficulties; and when they have conquered these, rest becomes insufferable.

Blaise Pascal

Live poor so you can die rich.
