This is the subject, said Pierre Villiers. It gives me scope to amuse and tell the truth at the same time. A man pierces a hole in the wall of a boarding-house room, and watches what is going on in the next room.

The infrastructure for linking environmental health and public health is not working as well as it should.

Samuel Wilson

My beauty icons are women whose images are self-created.

Dita Von Teese

I've written poetry since I was in the first grade, and it wasn't until I was a little bit older that I realized poetry could be put to music and become a song.

Jordin Sparks

Education is a state-controlled manufactory of echoes.

Norman Douglas

Fear of serious injury alone cannot justify oppression of free speech and assembly. Men feared witches and burnt women. It is the function of speech to free men from the bondage of irrational fears.

Louis D. Brandeis

There's an internal battle. I need to work, I need to work, I need to work and I need to be home with my kids and the kids win.

Jennifer Garner

This is what is meant by the phenomenology of the science-making process: Self-observation always leads us to an existential point about the metaphysics of experience, and it is almost always a transforming moment. (p. 286)

Eugene Taylor

The eternal mystery of the world is its comprehensibility.

Albert Einstein

Aviation is proof that given, the will, we have the capacity to achieve the impossible.

Edward Rickenbacker

A paranoid is someone who knows a little of what's going on.

William S. Burroughs

If we run into such debts as that we must be taxed in our meat and in our drink, in our necessaries and our comforts, in our labors and our amusements, for our callings and our creeds, as the people of England are, our people, like them, must come to labor sixteen hours in the twenty-four, and give the earnings of fifteen of these to the government for their debts and daily expenses; And the sixteenth being insufficient to afford us bread, we must live, as they do now, on oatmeal and potatoes, have no time to think, no means of calling the mismanagers to account; but be glad to obtain subsistence by hiring ourselves to rivet their chains around the necks of our fellow sufferers; And this is the tendency of all human governments. A departure from principle in one instance becomes a precedent for a second, that second for a third, and so on 'til the bulk of the society is reduced to be mere automatons of misery, to have no sensibilities left but for sinning and suffering ... And the forehorse of this frightful team is public debt. Taxation follows that, and in its train wretchedness and oppression.

Thomas Jefferson

Games lubricate the body and the mind.

Benjamin Franklin
