With the NDAA, his failure to close Guantanamo Bay and the ramping use of drones, President Obama looks suspiciously like President Bush, a man on a quest for American Empire.

You cannot feed the hungry on statistics.

Heinrich Heine

I give dating advice on a regular basis. It's not that I'm any expert, but it's always nice to share that with your friends.

Ashley Tisdale

It is clear that thought is not free if the profession of certain opinions makes it impossible to earn a living.

Bertrand Russell

I would like to prove that on TV, everyday lives can be as compelling as the life-styles of the rich and famous. Especially lives that we catch at extraordinary moments.

Jane Pauley

Poverty frees them from ordinary standards of behaviour, just as money frees people from work.

George Orwell

When I was very young and the urge to be someplace was on me, I was assured by mature people that maturity would cure this itch. When years described me as mature, the remedy prescribed was middle age. In middle age I was assured that greater age would calm my fever and now that I am fifty-eight perhaps senility will do the job. Nothing has worked. In other words, I don't improve, in further words, once a bum always a bum. I fear the disease is incurable.

John Steinbeck

Listening to medical facts was not enough. People wanted one hundred percent guarantees.

Ryan White

I hate formal stuff. I love looking like a doll and all that stuff and playing dress up, but when I'm home, sweat pants, t-shirt. When I'm in the studio, sweat pants, t-shirt.

Jesse Ventura

I can safely say that other than macaroni and cheese, there's no processed food in my life. There's no inorganic food in my life these days. There's no junk food. There's not a lot of sugar. There's no soy. I mean, really everything that's going into my body is pretty pure.

Ginnifer Goodwin

It is only the impossible that is possible for God. He has given over the possible to the mechanics of matter and the autonomy of his creatures.

Simone Weil

A sense of humor is a major defense against minor troubles.
