O for a muse of fire, that would ascend the brightest heaven of invention.

In vain a zealous evangelist with a fely hat and flowing tie threads his way through the crowd, crying without cease: 'God is great and good. Come unto Him.' On the contrary, they all make haste toward some trivial objective that seems of more immediate interest than God.

Albert Camus

Lord, make me an instrument of thy peace. Where there is hatred, let me sow love.

Francis of Assisi

My religion encompasses all religions. I believe in God, I believe in the universe. I believe you are god, I believe I am god; I believe the earth is god and the universe is god. We're all god.

Ray Bradbury

Robert Foster Bennett

The beauty of jazz is that it's malleable. People are addressing it to suit their own personalities.

Single-mindedness is all very well in cows or baboons; in an animal claiming to belong to the same species as Shakespeare it is simply disgraceful.

Aldous Huxley

You have to dream dreams to live dreams.

Eric Lindros

...not doing what we love in the name of greed is very poor management of our lives.

Warren Buffett
