Religion points to that area of human experience where in one way or another man comes upon mystery as a summons to pilgrimage.

We sleep safe in our beds because rough men stand ready in the night to visit violence on those who would do us harm.

George Orwell

Sometimes you can cattle rope your heart and sometimes you can't, is all.

Deb Caletti

Show me a genuine case of platonic friendship, and I shall show you two old or homely faces.

Austin O'Malley

O bitter is it to abide In weariness alway: At dawn to sigh for eventide, At eventide for day. Thy noon hath fled: thy sun hath shone: The brightness of thy day is gone: What need to lag and linger on Till life be cold and gray?

Lewis Carroll

O puro espírito é pura mentira. Enquanto o padre continuar a passar por ser uma espécie superior - o padre, esse negador, esse caluniador, esse envenenador da vida por profissão - , não há resposta para a pergunta: que é a verdade? A verdade fica logo colocada em cima da cabeça, se o advogado confesso do nada e da negação passa por ser o representante da verdade...

Friedrich Nietzsche

I make movies that nobody will see. I've made movies that even I have never seen.

Christopher Walken

If I were you, I'd sue my face for slander.

Terry Pratchett

Religion was nearly dead because there was no longer real belief in future life; but something was struggling to take its place -- service -- social service -- the ants creed, the bees creed.

John Galsworthy

When we understand that man is the only animal who must create meaning, who must open a wedge into neutral nature, we already understand the essence of love. Love is the problem of an animal who must find life, create a dialogue with nature in order to experience his own being.

Ernest Becker

I think that people who are famous tend to be underdeveloped in their humanity skills.

Diane Keaton

Men in all ways are better than they seem

Ralph Waldo Emerson

I think one of the basic tasks in life - one of the nice things we can do for each other - is to take things that are horrible and scary and make them acceptable and less frightening and, if possible, funny. It feels great to succeed at that.

Julia Sweeney
