Seeing is believing, and if an American success is to count for anything in the world it must be clothed in the raiment of property. As often as not it isn't the money itself that means anything; it is the use of money as the currency of the soul.

Willing or preferring is the same with respect to good and evil, that judging is with respect to truth or falsehood.

Anthony Collins

The Indian...stands free and unconstrained in Nature, is her inhabitant and not her guest, and wears her easily and gracefully. But the civilized man has the habits of the house. His house is a prison.

Henry David Thoreau

Simplicity is natures first step, and the last of art.

Philip James Bailey

And what do Democrats stand for, if they are so ready to defame concerned citizens as the 'mob' - a word betraying a Marie Antoinette delusion of superiority to ordinary mortals. I thought my party was populist, attentive to the needs and wishes of those outside the power structure. And as a product of the 1960s, I thought the Democratic party was passionately committed to freedom of thought and speech.

Camille Paglia

Antonin Artaud

Money cannot buy health, but I'd settle for a diamond-studded wheelchair.

Dorothy Parker, In Writers at Wo

Every new stroke of civilization has cost the lives of countless brave men, who have fallen defeated by the dragon, in their efforts to win the apples of the Hesperides, or the fleece of gold. Fallen in their efforts to overcome the old, half sordid savagery of the lower stages of creation, and win the next stage.

D. H. (David Herbert) Lawrence

Jeder Anfang trägt ein Ende in sich, jedes Aufblühen seinen Untergang. Und jeder Frühling seinen Winter.

Veit Etzold

I can celebrate food anytime. I love cheese. When I crave a certain food, I just eat it.

Emmanuelle Chriqui

A laugh, to be joyous, must flow from a joyous heart, for without kindness, there can be no true joy

Thomas Carlyle

I am a sports fanatic and being able to perform at halftime for the fans of the Steelers and the Jets is such a thrill for me.

Joe Nichols

The only way to get people to like working hard is to motivate them. Today, people must understand why they're working hard. Every individual in an organization is motivated by something different.
