What was the point of spending your life with someone you were always looking for ways to decieve?

People that are really very weird can get into sensitive positions and have a tremendous impact on history.

Dan Quayle

It is not history which uses men as a means of achieving - as if it were an individual person - its own ends. History is nothing but the activity of men in pursuit of their ends.

Karl Marx

Habit is thus the enormous fly-wheel of society, its most precious conservative agent. It alone is what keeps us all within the bounds of ordinance, and saves the children of fortune from the envious uprisings of the poor.

William James

Men are wise in proportion, not to their experience, but to their capacity for experience. If we could learn from mere experience, the stones of London would be wiser than its wisest men.

George Bernard Shaw

Oxford is -- Oxford: not a mere receptacle for youth, like Cambridge. Perhaps it wants its inmates to love it rather than to love one another.

E. M. Forster

I've always thought of beauty therapy, 'alternative' treatments and the like as the female equivalent of brothels - for essentially self-deceiving people who feel a bit hollow and have to pay to be touched.

Julie Burchill

In poetry everything which must be said is almost impossible to say well.

Paul Valery

Truth is by nature self-evident. As soon as you remove the cobwebs of ignorance that surround it, it shines clear.

Mahatma Gandhi

Every science begins as philosophy and ends as art.

Will Durant

We must train and classify the whole of our male citizens, and make military instruction a regular part of collegiate education.

Thomas Jefferson

Confession, alas, is the new handshake.

Richard D. Rosen

May I kiss you then? On this miserable paper? I might as well open the window and kiss the night air.

Franz Kafka
