No one is without Christianity, if we agree on what we mean by that word. It is every individual's individual code of behavior by means of which he makes himself a better human being than his nature wants to be, if he followed his nature only. Whatever its symbol -- cross or crescent or whatever -- that symbol is man's reminder of his duty inside the human race.

A guerra é a forma de Deus en­si­nar ge­o­grafia aos ame­ri­ca­nos.

Ambrose Bierce

You know that big government doesn't hurt big corporations. They've got the best lawyers and accountants in the world. You know who gets destroyed by big government? It's the little guys.

Marco Rubio

Optimization hinders evolution.

Anon.

I've never had a very closely connected family. My parents split up when I was young and I was living with my mom for a little while, then I was kind of just on my own really young. It wasn't some kind of global tragedy, it was just never really a very close-knit family. So there was support in the sense that they didn't stand in my way.

Ani DiFranco

The origins of clothing are not practical. They are mystical and erotic. The primitive man in the wolf-pelt was not keeping dry; he was saying: Look what I killed. Aren't I the best?

Katharine Hamnett

A painting is more than the sum of its parts,' he would tell me, and then go on to explain how the cow by itself is just a cow, and the meadow by itself is just grass and flowers, and the sun peeking through the trees is just a beam of light, but put them all together and you've got magic.

Wendelin Van Draanen

I will tell you the truth as soon as I figure it out.

Wayne Birmingham

Whatever sentence will bear to be read twice, we may be sure was thought twice.

Henry David Thoreau

I tell you the truth, it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven.

Jesus Christ

I've done the most awful rubbish in order to have somewhere to go in the morning.

Richard Burton

A short saying often contains much wisdom.

Sophocles

The imagination is not a talent of some men but is the health of every man.

Ralph Waldo Emerson
