Some might think that George W. Bush had his shortcomings, but let me tell you something - history's going to be kind to George W. Bush.

I'd rather try and fail than not try at all, as they say.

Bobby Rahal

The secret to understanding me is, I'm not trying to be anybody other than who I actually am. People want candid, refreshing leadership. And I've always tried to go with solutions. You know, I've always tried to say, here's how we get our economy growing, here's why we get our debt under control. That's what Mitt Romney is offering.

Paul Ryan

I am totally against the idea that a Muslim woman should not have the same opportunities as a Muslim man to learn, to open up, to work, help shape the future. To close Islam down to a sexist approach is totally intolerable and ridiculous. It's not Islam.

King Hussein I

I'm sure I don't know half the people who come to my house. Indeed, from all I hear, I shouldn't like to.

Oscar Wilde

The little boy nodded at the peony and the peony seemed to nod back. The little boy was neat, clean and pretty. The peony was unchaste, dishevelled as peonies must be, and at the height of its beauty.(...) Every hour is filled with such moments, big with significance for someone.

Robertson Davies

Problems are not the problem; coping is the problem.

Virginia Satir

Celebrity is never more admired than by the negligent.

William Shakespeare

Neither claimed any responsibility for Milton Keynes, but both reported it as a success.

Terry Pratchett

History is little more than the register of the crimes, follies and misfortunes of mankind.

Edward Gibbon

You don't have to look far to taste some of the best food the world has to offer. I'd pit my grandmother against a 3-star Michelin chef any day.

Nadia Giosia

Motorists who want to save money on gas will demand and buy more fuel-efficient vehicles. We should not limit their freedom with more government regulations.

Jim DeMint

The measure of a truly great man is the courtesy with which he treats lesser men.
