Many people flounder about in life because they do not have a purpose, an objective toward which to work.

Who can direct when all pretend to know?

Oliver Goldsmith

The worst of revolutions is a restoration.

Charles James Fox

When a woman marries again it is because she detested her first husband. When a man marries again it is because he adored his first wife. Women try their luck; men risk theirs.

Oscar Wilde

If the sum of living be love's fee,Tremble. You are my one eternity.

Laura Benet

Sometimes, in a daze, they completely dismantled the cadaver, then found themselves hard put to it to fit the pieces together again.

Gustave Flaubert

I am suggesting that we recognize that in network and interface research there is something as profound (and potential wild) as Artificial Intelligence.

Vernor Vinge

Read not to contradict and confute, not to believe and take for granted, not to find talk and discourse, but to weigh and consider. Some books are to be tasted, others to be swallowed, and some few to be chewed and digested: that is, some books are to be read only in parts, others to be read, but not curiously, and some few to be read wholly, and with diligence and attention.

Francis Bacon, Essays, Of Studie

There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been.

Isaac Asimov

Sentimentality--that's what we call the sentiment we don't share.

Graham Greene

Muhammad has always been standing higher than the Christianity. He does not consider god as a human being and never makes himself equal to God. Muslims worship nothing except God and Muhammad is his Messenger. There is no any mystery and secret in it

Leo Tolstoy

Women who love women are Lesbians. Men, because they can only think of women in sexual terms, define Lesbian as sex between women.

Rita Mae Brown

Every time I write something, I think, this is the most offensive thing I will ever write. But no. I always surprise myself.

Chuck Palahniuk
