I would rather be kept alive in the efficient if cold altruism of a large hospital than expire in a gush of warm sympathy in a small one.

The loss of wealth is loss of dirt, as sages in all times assert; The happy man's without a shirt.

John Heywood

I never did anything by accident, nor did any of my inventions come by accident; they came by work.

Thomas Alva Edison

Peter L. Bergen

Beauty vanishes like a vapor, Preach the men of musty morals.

Harriet Elizabeth Prescott Spoff

Danica McKellar

The advent of a new religion, making serious and impressive claims to embody a new revelation from on high, is not a frequent occurrence.

Robert Rainy

Dwight D. Eisenhower

There are no accidents, only nature throwing her weight around. Even the bomb merely releases energy that nature has put there. Nuclear war would be just a spark in the grandeur of space.

Camille Anna Paglia

The only people that should vote should be legal.

Pam Bondi

So long as war is the main business of nations, temporary despotism - despotism during the campaign - is indispensable.
