If your motives aren't clean, money itself becomes evil. But When we don't have money enough evil, the world tells us we're losers. So what determines our place in society is not how much kindness is in our hearts but how much evil is in our wallet.

I love going to Africa and stuff. I love going anywhere, really, but I've been to Africa a bunch of times and it's just a beautiful place that needs help, obviously, but helping people that are really thankful is really easy to do. And the people out there always seem so thankful.

Kris Allen

Every abuse ought to be reformed, unless the reform is more dangerous than the abuse itself.

Voltaire (FrançoisMarie Arouet)

We are more often frightened than hurt; and we suffer more from imagination than from reality.

Seneca (Seneca the Elder)

A state that suppresses all freedom of speech, and which by imposing the most terrible punishments, treats each and every attempt at criticism, however morally justified, and every suggestion for improvement as plotting to high treason, is a state that breaks an unwritten law.

Kurt Huber

The most remarkable thing about my mother is that for thirty years she served the family nothing but leftovers. The original meal has never been found.

Calvin Trillin

If we confuse dissent with disloyalty

Edward R. Murrow, Ford Fiftieth

No, 'tis slander, Whose edge is sharper than the sword, whose tongue Outvenoms all the worms of Nile, whose breath Rides on the posting winds, and doth belie All corners of the world.

William Shakespeare

I found love in the arms of another woman. Who needs two legs, a torso, or talking??

Jarod Kintz

I'm very pleased to be here. Let's face it, at my age I'm very pleased to be anywhere.

George Burns

In this society, the norm of masculinity is phallic aggression. Male sexuality is, by definition, intensely and rigidly phallic. A man's identity is located in his conception of himself as the possessor of a phallus; a man's worth is located in his pride in phallic identity. The main characteristic of phallic identity is that worth is entirely contingent on the possession of a phallus. Since men have no other criteria for worth, no other notion of identity, those who do not have phalluses are not recognized as fully human.

Andrea Dworkin

Music is good to the melancholy, bad to those who mourn, and neither good or bad to the deaf.

Baruch (_Benedict de) Spinoza

When I played drunks I had to remain sober because I didn't know how to play them when I was drunk.

Sir Richard Francis Burton
