These paper boats of mine are meant to dance on the ripples of hours, and not reach any destination.

All sides in a trial want to hide at least some of the truth.

Alan Dershowitz

STOP wishing for a better tomorrow...when you can keep working for a better today!

Timothy Pina

A jest breaks no bones

Samuel Johnson

He was there alone with himself, collected, tranquil, adoring, comparing the serenity of his heart with the serenity of the skies, moved in the darkness by the visible splendors of the constellations, and the invisible splendor of God, opening his soul to the thoughts which fall from the Unknown. In such moments, offering up his heart at the hour when the flowers of night inhale their perfume, lighted like a lamp in the center of the starry night, expanding his soul in ecstasy in the midst of the universal radiance of creation, he could not himself perhaps have told what was passing in his own mind; he felt something depart from him, and something descend upon him, mysterious interchanges of the depths of the soul with the depths of the universe.

Victor Hugo

The mere apprehension of a coming evil has put many into a situation of the utmost danger.

F. L. Lucan

I wanted so badly to lie down next to her on the couch, to wrap my arms around her and sleep. Not fuck, like in those movies. Not even have sex. Just sleep together in the most innocent sense of the phrase. But I lacked the courage and she had a boyfriend and I was gawky and she was gorgeous and I was hopelessly boring and she was endlessly fascinating. So I walked back to my room and collapsed on the bottom bunk, thinking that if people were rain, I was drizzle and she was hurricane.

John Green

I never look at the brass. It only encourages them.

Thomas Beechum

Concerns about the size and role of government are what seem to leave reformers stammering and speechless in town-hall meetings. The right wants to have a debate over fundamental principles elected Democrats seem incapable of giving it to them.

Thomas Frank

I don't really know how to relate to a long-term day-in day-out kind of comfortable relationship.

Diane Lane

You will think me cruel, very selfish, but love is always selfish; the more ardent the more selfish. How jealous I am you cannot know. You must come with me, loving me, to death; or else hate me, and still come with me, and hating me through death and after. There is no such word as indifference in my apathetic nature.

Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu

The devil can site scripture for his own purpose! An evil soul producing holy witness is like a villain with a smiling cheek. Merchant Of Venice

William Shakespeare

In addition to removing our democratically elected government, Israel wants to sow dissent among Palestinians by claiming that there is a serious leadership rivalry among us. I am compelled to dispel this notion definitively.
