New York, like London, seems to be a cloacina [toilet] of all the depravities of human nature.

To me, we must learn to spell the word RESPECT. We must respect the rights and properties of our fellowman. And then learn to play the game of life, as well as the game of athletics, according to the rules of society. If you can take that and put it into practice in the community in which you live, then, to me you have won the greatest championship.

Jesse Owens

Whoever is careless with the truth in small matters cannot be trusted with important matters.

Albert Einstein

I spin worlds where we could be together. I dream you. For me, imagination and desire are very close.

Jeanette Winterson

Marc Andreessen

You drown not by falling into a river, but by staying submerged in it.

Paulo Coelho

I never wanted to see anybody die, but there are a few obituary notices I have read with pleasure.

Clarence Darrow

Failure is nature's plan to prepare you for great responsibilities.

Napoleon Hill

All of life is a risk; in fact we're not going to get out alive. Casualness leads to casualties. Communication is the ability to affect other people with words.

Jim Rohn

Older fatherhood isn't all bad: testosterone rates drop about 1% per year as men age, making them less reactive and more patient, and a professionally established middle-aged man is likely to have more time and money to devote to his kids than a twenty-something who's just getting started.

Jeffrey Kluger

How awful to reflect that what people say of us is true!

Logan Pearsall Smith

Human beings sometimes find a kind of pleasure in nursing painful emotions, in blaming themselves without reason or even against reason.

Isaac Asimov
