Science is a differential equation. Religion is a boundary condition.

I still believe in a place called Hope.

William J. Clinton

I find it hard to take rock groups very seriously or treat them with respect. There is something absurd about these gloomy young men getting together and banging away.

Robert Wyatt

How can it be wrong? Love picks the right path, not the one of least resistance.

Debra Anastasia

The most powerful weapon on earth is the human soul on fire.

Marshal Ferdinand Foch

I became famous so quickly and so young - it was daunting. I was immature and I used to say some really stupid things in interviews. I never smiled on stage so I looked really serious, but it was because I hated my teeth and was incredibly nervous.

Gary Numan

When people are lonely they stoop to any companionship.

Lew Wallace

Deceive not thyself by over-expecting happiness in the married estate. Remember the nightingales which sing only some months in the spring, but commonly are silent when they have hatched their eggs, as if their mirth were turned into care for their young ones.

Thomas Fuller

In oratory the will must predominate.

David Hare

There are two spiritual dangers in not owning a farm. One is the danger of supposing that breakfast comes from the grocery, and the other that heat comes from the furnace. To avoid the first danger, one should plant a garden, preferably where there is no grocer to confuse the issue. To avoid the second, he should lay a split of good oak on the andirons, preferably where there is no furnace, and let it warm his shins while a February blizzard tosses the trees outside. If one has cut, split, hauled, and piled his own good oak, and let his mind work the while, he will remember much about where heat comes from, and with a wealth of detail denied to those who spend the weekend in town astride a radiator.

Aldo Leopold, A Sand County Alma

Imagination, not intelligence, made us human.

Terry Pratchett

Supercookies are legal, but I don't think they should be.

Joe Barton

Why is it that an extended olive branch often turns to a clinched fist of hatred?

Don Williams, Jr
