Oh, 'tis love, 'tis love that makes the world go round.

The greatest pleasure of life is love.

Euripides

Hell is full of musical amateurs: music is the brandy of the damned. May not one lost soul be permitted to abstain?

George Bernard Shaw

At that time, I often thought that if I had had to live in the trunk of a dead tree, with nothing to do but look up at the sky flowing overhead, little by little I would have gotten used to it.

Albert Camus

To those of you who received honours, awards and distinctions, I say well done. And to the C students, I say you, too, can be president of the United States.

George W. Bush

In most cases a favorite writer is more with us in his book than he ever could have been in the flesh; since, being a writer, he is one who has studied and perfected this particular mode of personal incarnation, very likely to the detriment of any other. I should like as a matter of curiosity to see and hear for a moment the men whose works I admire; but I should hardly expect to find further intercourse particularly profitable.

Charles Horton Cooley

Rwanda was considered a second-class operation because it was a small country, we had been able to maintain a kind of status quo. They were negotiating, they'd accepted the new peace project, so we were under the impression that everything would be solved easily.

Boutros Boutros-Ghali

A book should be luminous not voluminous.

Christian Nevell Bovee

The deadly Hydra now is the hydra of Equality. Liberty, Equality and Fraternity is the three-fanged serpent.

D. H. (David Herbert) Lawrence

I've always loved the experience of working together with other people toward an artistic goal.

Trey Anastasio

I was a Christian. I didn't want to have sex before marriage, I was a bit uptight and not very self-confident. I was a virgin until I was 26.

Jimmy Carr

Human beings of all societies in all periods of history believe that their ideas on the nature of the real world are the most secure, and that their ideas on religion, ethics and justice are the most enlightened. Like us, they think that final knowledge is at last within reach. Like us, they pity the people in earlier ages for not knowing the true facts. Unfailingly, human beings pity their ancestors for being so ignorant and forget that their descendants will pity them for the same reason.

Edward Harrison, The Uncertainty

I'm not entirely sure what my end goal is, but I'd love to get involved in city politics and broadcast TV.
