Money is always there but the pockets change it is not in the same pockets after a change, and that is all there is to say about money.

To be awake is to be alive.

Henry David Thoreau

I love romantic poetry.

Richard Dawkins

Distrust any enterprise that requires new clothes.

Henry David Thoreau

Prier Dieu c'est se flatter qu'avec des paroles on changera toute la nature.

Voltaire

We all take such pains to over-educate ourselves. In the wild struggle for existence, we want to have something that endures, and so we fill our minds with rubbish and facts, in the silly hope of keeping our place. The thoroughly well-informed man - that is the modern ideal. And the mind of the thoroughly well-informed man is a dreadful thing. It is like a bric-a-brac shop, all monsters and dust, with everything priced above its proper value.

Oscar Wilde

I will never forget my beautiful days with you in Shanklin, they are certainly the most pleasant ones of my life. Look, I have tears in my eyes just to think about it. I am furious to be here, it is the end of happiness for a whole year.

Camille Claudel

Capitalism without bankruptcy is like Christianity without hell.

Frank Borman

Tempt not a desperate man.

William Shakespeare

The quickest way to defuse fear or insecurity or anger is usually humor. I think comics figure that out quickly, and, once you figure it out, you think, 'Hey, if I can do this and get paid, that would be kind of cool.'

Billy Gardell

I am grateful for - though I can't keep up with - the flood of articles, theses, and textbooks that mean to share insight concerning the nature of poetry.

A. R. Ammons

If I think more about death than some other people, it is probably because I love life more than they do.

Angelina Jolie

How can you fall in love at first sight when you can't even see?
