Nobody loves a woman because she is handsome or ugly, stupid or intelligent. We love because we love.

Cagey trial lawyers have figured out there's a pretty good likelihood their case - no matter what its merit - will literally get its day in court because of favorable judges.

The rich are always advising the poor, but the poor seldom return the compliment.

Sir Arthur Helps

The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it and ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is.

Sir Winston Churchill

Be still my heart; thou hast known worse than this.

Homer

Many of us don't have to turn out the lights to be in the dark.

Despotism is a long crime.

Victor Hugo

Perhaps the best reason to consider the hard sciences is that, well, one study suggests science, engineering, medicine, and dentistry graduates live longer than arts graduates (or law grads). So whatever money you make you can keep a bit longer.

Warren Farrell

Where there is no property there is no injustice.

John Locke

When you are drowned by your sorry state, and you feel as if you are carried away from the road that leads to your desires, you should know that you are the one responsible for being led away from the right path.

Stephen Richards

We always compare our labor with its results. We do not devote more effort to a given task if we can accomplish it with less; nor, when confronted with two toilsome tasks, do we choose the greater. We are more inclined to diminish the ratio of effort to result, and if, in so doing, we gain a little leisure, nothing will stop us from using it, for the sake of additional benefits, in enterprises more in keeping with our tastes.Man's universal practice, indeed, is conclusive in this regard. Always and everywhere, we find that he looks upon toil as the disagreeable aspect, and on satisfaction as the compensatory aspect, of his condition. Always and everywhere, we find that, as far as he is able, he places the burden of his toil upon animals, the wind, steam, or other forces of Nature, or, alas! upon his fellow men, if he can gain mastery over them. In this last case, let me repeat, for it is too often forgotten, the labor has not been lessened; it has merely been shifted to other shoulders.

He broke my heart, and now it's raining, just to rub it in...

Nothing happens, nobody comes, nobody goes, it's awful.
