It is only by not paying one's bills that one can hope to live in the memory of the commercial classes.

I'm lucky because my dad taught me to be frugal and save. And that's important because I want to know that I don't have to take an acting job for two or three years if I don't want to and that I'll still be able to make my house and car payments and buy food for my dogs.

Ashley Greene

The idea of the future, pregnant with an infinity of possibilities, is thus more fruitful than the future itself, and this is why we find more charm in hope than in possession, in dreams than in reality.

Henri Bergson

I think the environment should be put in the category of our national security. Defense of our resources is just as important as defense abroad. Otherwise what is there to defend?

Robert Redford

I will prepare and some day my chance will come.

Abraham Lincoln

Violence does, in truth, recoil upon the violent, and the schemer falls into the pit which he digs for another.

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

We are going to die, and that makes us the lucky ones. Most people are never going to die because they are never going to be born. The potential people who could have been here in my place but who will in fact never see the light of day outnumber the sand grains of Arabia. Certainly those unborn ghosts include greater poets than Keats, scientists greater than Newton. We know this because the set of possible people allowed by our DNA so massively exceeds the set of actual people. In the teeth of these stupefying odds it is you and I, in our ordinariness, that are here.

Richard Dawkins

I was supposed to be waiting up here when you got back, only your Phoenix lot got in the way...Yes, they do that, said Dumbledore.

J.K. Rowling

Software comes from heaven when you have good hardware.

Ken Olsen

This life is for loving, sharing, learning, smiling, caring, forgiving, laughing, hugging, helping, dancing, wondering, healing, and even more loving. I choose to live life this way. I want to live my life in such a way that when I get out of bed in the morning, the devil says, 'aw shit, he's up!

Steve Maraboli

Friday was an important day for Harry and Ron. They finally managed to find their way down to the Great Hall without getting lost once.

J.K. Rowling

The lake and the mountains have become my landscape, my real world.

Georges Simenon

There is nothing so unthinkable as thought, unless it be the entire absence of thought.

Samuel Butler
