Return from existence to nonexistence. You are seeking the Lord and you belong to him. Nonexistence is a place of income; flee it not. This existence of more and less is a place of expenditure.

Neatness begets order but from order to taste there is the same difference as from taste to genius, or from love to friendship.

Johann Kaspar Lavater

Humor is tragedy plus time

Mark Twain

Technique is really personality. That is the reason why the artist cannot teach it, why the pupil cannot learn it, and why the aesthetic critic can understand it. To the great poet, there is only one method of music -- his own. To the great painter, there is only one manner of painting -- that which he himself employs. The aesthetic critic, and the aesthetic critic alone, can appreciate all forms and all modes. It is to him that Art makes her appeal.

Oscar Wilde

If everything isn't black and white, I say, 'Why the hell not?'

John Wayne

George McGovern

Try not to become a man of success. Rather become a man of value.

Albert Einstein

The secret to happiness is not in doing what one likes to do, but in liking what one has to do.

That's what my Dad always told me, on the ballot, they should always have a third choice, like none of the above, then if enough people picked that, they'd have to get new candidates.

Meg White

My kids idea of a hard life is to live in a house with only one phone.

George Foreman

People look for their leadership to lead.

Mick Cornett

You can forgive people who do not follow you through a philosophical disquisition but to find your wife laughing when you had tears in your eyes, or staring when you were in a fit of laughter, would go some way towards a dissolution of the marriage.

Robert Louis Stevenson

Some people talk in their sleep. Lecturers talk while other people sleep.

Albert Camus
