In the past, I used to associate peace with a sense of monotony or lack of excitement.
I would not vote for the mayor. It's not just because he didn't invite me to dinner, but because on my way into town from the airport there were such enormous potholes.
Fidel Castro
When life seems just a dreary grind; and things seem fated to annoy; say something nice to someone else and watch the world light up with joy.

Come! Let us lay a lance in rest,And tilt at windmills under a wild sky!For who would live so petty and unblestThat dare not tilt at something ere he die;Rather than, screened by safe majority,Preserve his little life to little end,And never raise a rebel cry!
John Galsworthy
Poor workers! First they're cuckolded, and, as if that weren't enough, then they're beaten! Work's a curse, Saturno. I say to hell with the work you have to do to earn a living! That kind of work does us no honor; all it does is fill up the bellies of the pigs who exploit us. But the work you do because you like to do it, because you've heard the call, you've got a vocation --that's ennobling! We should all be able to work like that. Look at me, Saturno --I don't work. And I don't care if they hang me, I won't work! Yet I'm alive! I may live badly, but at least I don't have to work to do it!
Luis Bunuel
Perhaps believing in good design is like believing in God, it makes you an optimist.
Terence
When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hang on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn.
Harriet Beecher Stowe
That's the great thing about a tractor. You can't really hear the phone ring.

I would have voted against the Civil Rights Act of 1964

Why not go out on a limb? Isn't that where the fruit is?

The positivists have a simple solution: the world must be divided into that which we can say clearly and the rest, which we had better pass over in silence. But can anyone conceive of a more pointless philosophy, seeing that what we can say clearly amounts to next to nothing? If we omitted all that is unclear, we would probably be left completely uninteresting and trivial tautologies.
