Being a press secretary is like learning to type: You're hunting and pecking for a while and then you find yourself doing the touch system and don't realize it. You're speaking for the president without ever having to go to him.

The true meaning of religion is thus, not simply morality, but morality touched by emotion.

Matthew Arnold

A wise woman puts a grain of sugar into everything she says to a man, and takes a grain of salt with everything he says to her.

Helen Rowland

The world is ruled only by consideration of advantages.

Friedrich von Schiller

One must give himself completely to his art and not hold back. Throw caution to the wind. Embrace the muse. Make love to your art.

Harley King

We have always found the Irish a bit odd. They refuse to be English.

Winston Churchill

Law grinds the poor, and rich men rule the law.

Oliver Goldsmith

The courage to cooperate or initiate are based entirely on the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth as the divine mind within you tells you the truth is. It really does require a courage and a self-disciplining to go along with that truth.

Buckminster Fuller

If you pursue good with labor, the labor passes away but the good remains if you pursue evil with pleasure, the pleasure passes away and the evil remains.

Marcus Tullius Cicero

The only courage that matters is the kind that gets you from one moment to the next.

Mignon McLaughlin

I don't think of myself as a comedian, but as an artist, a scientist and chemist who just happens to be funny. I started doing stand-up to add another level to my game. I feel that I'm a young rookie with a veteran's skill.

Marlon Wayans

Business has only two functions -- marketing and innovation.

Peter Drucker

Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.

Ralph Waldo Emerson
