We must accept life for what it actually is -- a challenge to our quality without which we should never know of what stuff we are made, or grow to our full stature.

This means that to entrust to science - or to deliberate control according to scientific principles - more than scientific method can achieve may have deplorable effects.

Friedrich August von Hayek

Every face, every shop, bedroom window, public-house, and dark square is a picture feverishly turned--in search of what? It is the same with books. What do we seek through millions of pages?

Virginia Woolf

Live to the point of tears.

Albert Camus

Fyodor Dostoevsky

A man's concern, even his despair, over the worthwhileness of life is an existential distress but by no means a mental disease.

Viktor E. Frankl

I will not play tug o' war. I'd rather play hug o' war. Where everyone hugs instead of tugs, Where everyone giggles and rolls on the rug, Where everyone kisses, and everyone grins, and everyone cuddles, and everyone wins.

Shel Silverstein

I've played a lot of bad guys, 'cause that was the only work I could get. People saw my face and went Oooh.

Laurence Fishburne

I get my exercise acting as a pallbearer to my friends who exercise.

Chauncey Depew

Isaac Watts

Both the Labour and Conservative parties have constantly and repeatedly failed to honour promises they have made about reforming, cleaning, modernising our clapped-out system.

Nick Clegg

God gets you to the plate, but once your there your on your own.

Ted Williams

Effectively, change is almost impossible without industry-wide collaboration, cooperation and consensus.
