My extravagance is my garden - it's the first thing I look at every morning when I wake up. It gives me so much pleasure.

Ina Garten

I don't know anything about computers.

Adam Carolla

Life, friends, is boring. We must not say so. After all, the sky flashes, the great sea yearns, we ourselves flash and yearn, and moreover my mother told me as a boy (repeatedly) Ever to confess you're bored means you have no inner Resources.

Jane Austen

Immanuel Kant
