But Oh! The blessing it is to have a friend to whom one can speak fearless on any subject; with whom one's deepest as well as one's most foolish thoughts come out simply and safely. Oh, the comfort - the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person - having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but pouring them all right out, just as they are, chaff and grain together; certain that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and then with the breath of kindness blow the rest away.http://www.indiana.edu/%7Eletrs/vwwp/craik/craik-poem1866.html

Her companionship was like a warm soil about an exotic.

James Joyce

In my world, history comes down to language and art. No one cares much about what battles were fought, who won them and who lost them - unless there is a painting, a play, a song or a poem that speaks of the event.

Theodore Bikel

It is our choices...that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities.

J.K. Rowling

I think you can expect Sony, in the case of PSP specifically, to deliver a technology that is going to reinvent and change handheld entertainment, and take it to a brand new level.

Ian Jackson

The white youth of today have begun to react to the fact that the American Way of Life is a fossil of history. What do they care if their old baldheaded and crew-cut elders don't dig their caveman mops? They couldn't care less about the old, stiff-assed honkies who don't like their new dances: Frog, Monkey, Jerk, Swim, Watusi. All they know is that it feels good to swing to way-out body-rhythms instead of dragging across the dance floor like zombies to the dead beat of mind-smothered Mickey Mouse music.

Eldridge Cleaver

Every man is like the company he is wont to keep.

Euripides

In our factory, we make lipstick. In our advertising, we sell hope.

Charles Revson

I realize that patriotism is not enough. I must have no hatred or bitterness towards anyone.

Edith Cavell

I did 13-something years of talking to wrestlers and promoters about why they did certain things and why they booked matches a certain way and what they were thinking and whether they were satisfied with the draw. And I got a lot of insight in the business.

Billy Corgan

You can have everything in life you want, if you will just help other people get what they want.

Zig Ziglar

Constant complaint is the poorest sort of pay for all the comforts we enjoy.

Benjamin Franklin

The ought to be a worldwide cultural taskforce that just stops you when you have ideas like combining The Red Desert with an armored car heist movie.

Steven Soderbergh
