He that would pass the latter part of life with honour and decency, must, when he is young, consider that he shall one day be old; and remember, when he is old, that he has once been young.

The majority see the obstacles the few see the objectives history records the successes of the latter, while oblivion is the reward of the former.

Alfred A. Montapert

The whole world is about three drinks behind.

Humphrey Bogart

For years, it's driven me crazy that women don't have better roles, especially in comedies. I know so many funny women but I always felt... misogynist streak is too strong a term - but a dismissiveness.

Paul Feig

I will not attempt to deny the reasonableness and necessity of a party war but in carrying on that war all principles and rules of justice should not be departed from.

Robert Walpole

Unfortunately the world is what it is now. People don't get along for whatever reason. As professional athletes, in a way we're almost ambassadors for peace, because sports brings everyone together.

Venus Williams

My wife has brought great beauty into my life. And my daughter has brought me nothing but joy. Those qualities were greatly lacking.

Christopher Meloni

It never seems to occur to some people, that, like beauty, a sense of humor may sometimes be fatal.

Edgar Rice Burroghs

The cat, having sat upon a hot stove lid, will not sit upon a hot stove lid again. But he won't sit upon a cold stove lid, either.

Mark Twain

Reason lies between the bridle and the spur.

Italian Proverb

Like the measles, love is most dangerous when it comes late in life.

Lord (George Gordon) Byron

The corporate grip on opinion in the United States is one of the wonders of the Western World. No First World country has ever managed to eliminate so entirely from its media all objectivity -- much less dissent.

Gore Vidal

I don't know yet whether I fully believe in fate, but certain things do happen in a man's life that he cannot explain.

David Gemmell
