No man will be a sailor who has contrivance enough to get himself into a jail; for being in a ship is being in a jail, with the chance of being drowned. A man in a jail has more room, better food and commonly better company.

One of the lessons that I grew up with was to always stay true to yourself and never let what somebody else says distract you from your goals. And so when I hear about negative and false attacks, I really don't invest any energy in them, because I know who I am.

What are the chances of two Adelaide men, both involved in marijuana supply, meeting by chance on a plane to Bali just two weeks after Schapelle Corby's arrest? Then, after returning together during her trail, what are the chances of them also randomly bumping into the Corbys and being fast-tracked into their inner-circle to such a degree that they were given special access to Schapelle in jail just days out from her verdict hearing, when she was feeling at her most vulnerable?

I'd love the opportunity to do something where I could really give my opinion, my feisty side - it'd be fun!

Rachel Stevens

But I want people to understand that poker's not all glamorous, it's not all being on TV and making tons of money. It's a hard life. It's a lot of travel. It's a lot of weird hours.

Chris Moneymaker

It's a wonderful thing working with young actors. I know a lot of people don't like working with children. I actually adore it, because you watch their imagination open up and you watch them start to learn this job that I've been doing for so long. They come with such a lack of cynicism.

Michelle Forbes

Trying to be happy by accumulating possessions is like trying to satisfy hunger by taping sandwiches all over your body.

George Carlin

Facilis descensus AvernoNoctes atque dies patet atri ianua DitisSed revocare gradum superasque evadere ad aurasHoc opus labor est

Cassandra Clare

A man trying to sell a blind horse always praises its feet.

Proverb

I left in love, in laughter, and in truth, and wherever truth, love and laughter abide, I am there in spirit.

Bill Hicks

The customs and fashions of men change like leaves on the bough, some of which go and others come.

Dante Alighieri

Well, one of the problems about being psychoanalyzed is, as Nietzsche said, Be careful lest in casting out your devils that you cast out the best thing that's in you. So many people who are really in deep analysis look as though and act as though they have been filleted. There's no bone there, there's no stuff! How to get rid of ego as dictator and turn it into messenger and servant and scout, to be in your service, is the trick.

Joseph Campbell, The Hero's Jour

You may think the president is all-powerful, but he is not. He needs a lot of guidance from the Lord.
