Some men love truth so much that they seem to be in continual fear lest she should catch a cold on overexposure.

If you hold a cat by the tail you learn things you cannot learn any other way.

Mark Twain

Give your weakness to one who helps.

Rumi

I envy people with dreams and passions, but I don't think that way. I still don't have a 'bliss' to follow. For people like me - I suspect that's most people - holding out for a 'dream' or a 'passion' is paralyzing. I just like having work I enjoy that feels meaningful. That's hard enough... but it's enough.

Jane Pauley

I have loved to the point of madness; that which is called madness, that which to me, is the only sensible way to love.

Francois Sagon

The most violent element in society is ignorance.

Emma Goldman

It is not the position, but the disposition.

J. E. Dinger

So obscure are the greatest events, as some take for granted any hearsay, whatever its source, others turn truth into falsehood, and both errors find encouragement with posterity.

Tacitus

There is nothing in the dark that isn't there when the lights are on.

Rod Serling

The U.S. states that allow for citizens' initiatives tend to have fewer laws and lower taxes than the ones that don't. But the beauty of the system is that it encourages the spread of best practice.

Daniel Hannan

There is no life for girls in team sports past Little League. I got into tennis when I realized this, and because I thought golf would be too slow for me, and I was too scared to swim.

Billie Jean King

Art is a jealous mistress.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

I read poetry to save time.

Marilyn Monroe
