In matters of religion and matrimony I never give any advice; because I will not have anybody's torments in this world or the next laid to my charge.

It is a challenge, with the global fame, to try to act like I put my pants on one leg at a time, when in fact I have Pippa Middleton help me put my pants on every morning. She's my lady-in-waiting as well.

Kathy Griffin

Do you know why I stopped being Delight, my brother? I do. There are things not in your book. There are paths outside this garden.

Neil Gaiman

... the hydrostatic paradox of controversy. Don't you know what that means? Well, I will tell you. You know that, if you had a bent tube, one arm of which was of the size of a pipe-stem, and the other big enough to hold the ocean, water would stand at the same height in one as in the other. Controversy equalizes fools and wise men in the same way. And the fools know it.

Oliver Wendell Holmes

Pregnancy is a kind of miracle. Especially so in that it proves that a man and woman can conspire to force God to create a new soul.

Robert Anton Wilson

What makes the pain we feel from shame and jealousy so cutting is that vanity can give us no assistance in bearing them.

Francois de La Rochefoucauld

M*A*S*H offered real characters and everybody identified with them because they had such soul. The humor was intelligent and it always assumed that you had an intellect.

Loretta Swit

... keeping her wild-honey-and-chamomile-soaked hair from falling into her oatmeal-and-yogurt face mask

Emma McLaughlin

First, accept sadness. Realize that without losing, winning isn't so great.

Alyssa Milano

It is a thousand times better to have common sense without education than to have education without common sense.

Robert Green Ingersoll

I don't know what leadership is. You can't touch it. You can't feel it. It's not tangible. But I do know this: you recognize it when you see it.

Bob Ehrlich

Poetry is life distilled.

Gwendolyn Brooks

What is vital and healthy does not necessarily survive... An art, a whole civilization, may at any time slip through men's fingers in a very few years and be gone beyond recovery. If we are alive when such a thing is happening we shall hardly notice it until too late; and it is most unlikely that we shall know its causes.

C.S. Lewis
