You may be right that people say: 'You know what, we had Obama. He was inexperienced. The guy had great rhetoric, sounded good, looked good, but has turned out to be an utter disaster. I want someone where I have confidence and credibility that they're up to the job and that I can trust what they tell me.'

Patriotism is the last refuge of the scoundrel.

Samuel Johnson

Collecting quotations is an insidious, even embarrassing habit, like ragpicking or hoarding rocks or trying on other people's laundry. I got into it originally while trying to break an addiction to candy. I kicked candy and now seem to be stuck with quotations, which are attacking my brain instead of my teeth.

Robert Byrne, The Other 637 Best

My feeling is that labels are for canned food... I am what I am - and I know what I am.

Michael Stipe

Telling us to obey instinct is like telling us to obey 'people.' People say different things: so do instincts. Our instincts are at war... Each instinct, if you listen to it, will claim to be gratified at the expense of the rest.

C. S. Lewis

To say that a man is your Friend, means commonly no more than this, that he is not your enemy. Most contemplate only what would be the accidental and trifling advantages of Friendship, as that the Friend can assist in time of need by his substance, or his influence, or his counsel. Even the utmost goodwill and harmony and practical kindness are not sufficient for Friendship, for Friends do not live in harmony merely, as some say, but in melody.

Henry David Thoreau

You cannot get anything out of nature or from God by gambling; only out of your neighbor.

John Ruskin

Treaties are like roses and young girls -- they last while they last

Charles de Gaulle

There will be days that I don't think we'll know how to survive. But we will, because we have each other.

Colleen Hoover

The downside of my celebrity is that I cannot go anywhere in the world without being recognized. It is not enough for me to wear dark sunglasses and a wig. The wheelchair gives me away.

Stephen Hawking

It's totally corrupt man.

James Dye

You never see what you want to see, forever playing to the gallery.

Robertson Davies

Motivation is when your dreams put on work clothes

Benjamin Franklin
