You must be the best judge of your own happiness.

It is the style of idealism to console itself for the loss of something old with the ability to gape at something new.

Karl Kraus

Nature and Books belong to the eyes that see them.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Samuel Richardson

Golf is about knowledge, and studying another player - more than listening to a teacher - is the best way to get it.

Vijay Singh

Religion is not a burden, not a weight, it is wings.

Harry Emerson Fosdick

Real magic is the hand around the bandsaw, the thrown spark in the powder keg, the dimension-warp linking you straight into the heart of a star, the flaming sword that burns all the way down to the pommel. Sooner juggle torches in a tar pit than mess with real magic. Sooner lie down in front of a thousand elephants.

Terry Pratchett

James Thurber

The poor suffer twice at the rioter's hands. First, his destructive fury scars their neighborhood; second, the atmosphere of accommodation and consent is changed to one of hostility and resentment.

Lyndon B. Johnson

Grammar is...the pole you grab to get your thoughts up on their feet and walking.

Stephen King
