One of the stupidest theories of Western life.

Every man has his moral backside which he refrains from showing unless he has to and keeps covered as long as possible with the trousers of decorum.

G. C. (Georg Christoph) Lichtenb

It is an interesting question how far men would retain their relative rank if they were divested of their clothes.

Henry David Thoreau

The knowledge of an unlearned man is living and luxuriant like a forest, but covered with mosses and lichens and for the most part inaccessible and going to waste; the knowledge of the man of science is like timber collected in yards for public works, which still supports a green sprout here and there, but even this is liable to dry rot.

Henry David Thoreau

But I fear, my lot being cast in Scotland, that beauty would not be content.

Anne Boyd

Whenever you make a mistake or get knocked down by life, don't look back at it too long. Mistakes are life's way of teaching you. Your capacity for occasional blunders is inseparable from your capacity to reach your goals. No one wins them all, and your failures, when they happen, are just part of your growth. Shake off your blunders. How will you know your limits without an occasional failure? Never quit. Your turn will come.

Og Mandino

At present the peace of the world has been preserved, not by statesmen, but by capitalists.

Benjamin Disraeli

I've been the co-chair of the Non-Partisan Women's Caucus and vice-chair for several years, taking a leadership role in this women's organization.

Gwen Moore

I would think twice about designing stuff for which there was no need and which didn't endure.

Robin Day

The day you think there is no improvements to be made is a sad one for any player.

Lionel Messi

It's not lying when you do it to officers!

Terry Pratchett

I've never held myself up particularly high when I had movies that worked, and I never held myself all that low when I had failures.

Ben Affleck

What is a city, but the people; true the people are the city.

Coriolanus III
