To us, family means putting your arms around each other and being there.

Barbara Bush

Proverb

Niccolo Machiavelli

America is a model of force and freedom and moderation - with all the coarseness and rudeness of its people.

Lord Byron

It's a noir world. Unfair things happen.

Rob Thomas

Happiness is inward, and not outward and so, it does not depend on what we have, but on what we are.

Henry Van Dyke

Novelists are perhaps the last people in the world to be entrusted with opinions. The nature of a novel is that it has no opinions, only the dialectic of contrary views, some of which, all of which, may be untenable and even silly. A novelist should not be too intelligent either, although he may be permitted to be an intellectual.

Anthony Burgess

It was ideal apple-eating weather; the whitest sunlight descended from the purest sky, and an easterly wind rustled, without ripping loose, the last of the leaves on the Chinese elms. Autumns reward western Kansas for the evils at the remaining seasons impose: winter's rough Colorado winds and hip-high, sheep slaughtering snows; the slushes and the strange land fogs of spring; and summer, when even crows seek the puny shade, and the tawny infinitude of wheatstalks bristle, blaze.

Truman Capote

The sweetest honey is loathsome in its own deliciousness. And in the taste destroys the appetite. Therefore, love moderately.

William Shakespeare

Ambition is not a vice of little people.

Michel de Montaigne

One whom it is easier to hate, but still easier to quote--Alexander Pope.

Augustine Birrell, Alexander Pop

Flip Wilson
