One-tenth of the folks run the world. One-tenth watch them run it, and the other eighty percent don't know what the hell's going on.

Faith is about submission and trust, not about will and determination.

David Megill

The Impossible Generalized Man today is the critic who believes in loving those unworthy of love as well as those worthy --yet believes this only insofar as no personal risk is entailed. Meaning he loves no one, worthy or no. This is what makes him impossible.

Nelson Algren

When in a relationship, a real man doesn't make his woman jealous of others, he makes others jealous of his woman.

Steve Maraboli

Treat others as you wish to be treated. Don't just be nice, but be kind to other people. That can be so rewarding.

Mary Lambert

Music is essentially useless, as life is.

George Santayana

Through Kurt I saw the beauty of minimalism and the importance of music that's stripped down.

Dave Grohl

I think the greatest curse of American society has been the idea of an easy millennialism -- that some new drug, or the next election or the latest in social engineering will solve everything.

Robert Penn Warren

In love, unlike most other passions, the recollection of what you have had and lost is always better than what you can hope for in the future.

Stendhal

We cannot seek achievement for ourselves and forget about progress and prosperity for our community... Our ambitions must be broad enough to include the aspirations and needs of others, for their sakes and for our own.

Cesar Chavez

Whenever a person says to you that they are as innocent as lambs in all concerning money, look well after your own money, for they are dead certain to collar it, if they can. Whenever a person proclaims to you 'In worldly matters I'm a child,' you consider that that person is only a crying off from being held accountable, and that you have got that person's number, and it's Number One. Now, I am not a poetical man myself, except in a vocal way, when it goes round a company, but I'm a practical one, and that's my experience. So's this rule. Fast and loose in one thing, Fast and loose in everything. I never knew it fail. No more will you. Nor no one.

Charles Dickens

Architecture arouses sentiments in man. The architect's task therefore, is to make those sentiments more precise.

Adolf Loos

We have, let us face it and admit it, little influence. We prey on them, and we take from them, and we get by; we strip and we whore and we drink too much; we pump gas and we steal and we cheat and we exist in the cracks at the edges of society. Old gods, here in this new land without gods.

Neil Gaiman
