Mother goddesses are just as silly a notion as father gods. If a revival of the myths of these cults gives woman emotional satisfaction, it does so at the price of obscuring the real conditions of life. This is why they were invented in the first place.

I love cooking for myself and cooking for my family.

Al Roker

I knew they would kill me when they found out, but He struggled for words, releasing a sharp breath. I think I realized that I would rather die because I betrayed them, than live because I betrayed you.

Marissa Meyer

A specter is haunting Europe -- the specter of communism.

Karl Marx

The only limit to our realization of tomorrow will be our doubts of today

Franklin D. Roosevelt

In movies and in television the robots are always evil. I guess I am not into the whole brooding cyberpunk dystopia thing.

Daniel H. Wilson

My life isn't that dramatic. My dad really loves me, he just can't talk on the phone. He's too crippled and shy, and that's almost harder. He's there and he loves me, and I try and try and try, it's just impossible to have a relationship.

Joey Lauren Adams

When a man's best friend is his dog, that dog has a problem.

Edward Abbey

Such reproductions may not interest the reader; but after all, this is my autobiography, not his; he is under no obligation to read further in it; he was under none to begin. A modest or inhibited autobiography is written without entertainment to the writer and read with distrust by the reader.

Neville Cardus

But on average, I go to the gym about four or five times a week. Today, I'm so experienced in training - I'm actually listening to my body now. My body needs freedom. When I train I create serenity and I produce oxygen in my blood. It helps me to think better and relax. By training, you accentuate the problem.

Jean Claude Van Damme

Sadness is but a wall between two gardens.

Khalil Gibran

The society of merchants can be defined as a society in which things disappear in favor of signs. When a ruling class measures its fortunes, not by the acre of land or the ingot of gold, but by the number of figures corresponding ideally to a certain number of exchange operations, it thereby condemns itself to setting a certain kind of humbug at the center of its experience and its universe. A society founded on signs is, in its essence, an artificial society in which man's carnal truth is handled as something artificial.

Albert Camus

People with insufficient personalities are fond of cats. These people adore being ignored.

Henry Morgan
