A politician never forgets the precarious nature of elective life. We have never established a practice of tenure in public office.

The mind is never satisfied with the objects immediately before it, but is always breaking away from the present moment, and losing itself in schemes of future felicity. The natural flights of the human mind are not from pleasure to pleasure, but from hope to hope.

Samuel Johnson

It's amazing, it doesn't feel like it has been 10 years since retirement.

Gabriela Sabatini

Hidden talent counts for nothing.

Nero

The Pope is an idol whose hands are tied and whose feet are kissed.

Voltaire (FrançoisMarie Arouet)

It is with trifles and when he is off guard that a man best reveals his character.

Arthur Schopenhauer

We'd been so ... clueless that being in heat is not, by a long shot, the same as being in love, or that being in love is not, by a long shot, the same as loving.

Molleen Zwiker

Call it loyalty, call it what you want, but I suppose I've got people up here who I'm really tight with, we've made a lot of great bonds over the last few years and I've got people in my corner I can trust.

Jonathan Brown

The fewer the words, the better the prayer.

Martin Luther

I accept the Old Testament as more of an action movie: blood, car chases, evacuations, a lot of special effects, seas dividing, mass murder, adultery. The children of God are running amok, wayward. Maybe that's why they're so relatable.

Bono

Movies will end up being this esoteric art form, where only singular people will put films out in a small group of theaters.

M. Night Shyamalan

I can say that I never knew what joy was like until I gave up pursuing happiness, or cared to live until I chose to die. For these two discoveries I am beholden to Jesus.

Malcolm Muggeridge

If there hadn't been women we'd still be squatting in a cave eating raw meat, because we made civilization in order to impress our girlfriends.

Orson Welles
