No matter what looms ahead, if you can eat today, enjoy today, mix good cheer with friends today enjoy it and bless God for it.

I may grow rich by an art I am compelled to follow; I may recover health by medicines I am compelled to take against my own judgment; but I cannot be saved by a worship I disbelieve and abhor

Thomas Jefferson

Teaching is the only major occupation of man for which we have not yet developed tools that make an average person capable of competence and performance. In teaching we rely on the 'naturals,' the ones who somehow know how to teach.

Peter Drucker

The function of art is to make that understood which in the form of argument would be incomprehensible.

Constantin Brancusi

Care not for time and success. Act out thy part, whether it be to fail or to prosper.

Ghose Aurobindo

I think you know that I classify science as British science, American science, and everybody else.

Martin Fleischmann

Since I entered politics, I have chiefly had men's views confided to me privately. Some of the biggest men in the United States, in the Field of commerce and manufacture, are afraid of something. They know that there is a power somewhere -- so organized, so subtle, so watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive -- that they better not speak above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it.

Woodrow Wilson, The New Freedom,

I cannot say much for this Monarch's Sense--Nor would I if I could, for he was a Lancastrian. I suppose you know all about the Wars between him and the Duke of York who was on the right side; if you do not, you had better read some other History, for I shall not be very difuse in this, meaning by it only to vent my spleen against, and show my Hatred to all those people whose parties or principles do not suit with mine, and not to give information.

Jane Austen

All people are born alike - except Republicans and Democrats.

Groucho Marx

I love my songs, let's not get crazy here.

Ronnie Spector

We are on the precipice of climate system tipping points beyond which there is no redemption.

James Hansen

In the whole vast dome of living nature there reigns an open violence, a kind of prescriptive fury which arms all the creatures to their common doom: as soon as you leave the inanimate kingdom you find the decree of violent death inscribed on the very frontiers of life.

Joseph De Maistre

I never drink water because of the disgusting things that fish do in it.

W. C. Fields
