One of the most satisfying experiences I know is fully to appreciate an individual in the same way I appreciate a sunset. When I look at a sunset...I don't find myself saying, 'Soften the orange a litle more on the right hand corner, and put a bit more purple along the base, and use a little more pink in the cloud color...' I don't try to control a sunset. I watch it with awe as it unfolds.http://www.listeningway.com/rogers2-eng.html

The press attack people to sell more papers without thinking, but when you get famous you have to put up with this kind of stuff.

Roberto Cavalli

He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city.

Bible

Lawlessness is lawlessness. Anarchy is anarchy is anarchy. Neither race nor color nor frustration is an excuse for either lawlessness or anarchy.

Thurgood Marshall

I have always wanted what I have now come to call the voice of personal narrative. That has always been the appealing voice in poetry. It started for me lyrically in Shakespeare's sonnets.

Diane Wakoski

Paradox is the sharpest scalpel in the satchel of science. Nothing concentrates the mind as effectively, regardless of whether it pits two competing theories against each other, or theory against observation, or a compelling mathematical deduction against ordinary common sense.

Hans Christian von Baeyer

Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep.

Scott Adams

But if the choice is a cool president and 8 or 10 percent unemployment in a declining economy and a country that seems to be going in the wrong direction and structural unemployment for young people at 50 percent, I'd rather have a dorky president who fixed those problems.

Jonah Goldberg

If you want to make a dangerous man your friend, let him do you a favor.

Lewis E. Lawes

Words are timeless. You should utter them or write them with a knowledge of their timelessness.

Kahlil Gibran

The miserable hath no other medicine but only hope

William Shakespeare

My play was a complete success. The audience was a failure.

A physicist that I know commented that many other scientific disciplines, such as geology, anthropology, astronomy, are also challenged by biblical fundamentalism, but their people seem to be able to get on with their work without worrying unduly. Only Darwinians seem thrown into a frenzy that sends them running to litigation and demanding censorship. His explanation was that it's a rival religion.
