I would take a bomb, but I can't stand the noise.

I am a believer in punctuality though is makes me very lonely.

E. V. Verrall

We should take care not to make the intellect our god; it has, of course, powerful muscles, but no personality.

Albert Einstein

The little people must be sacred to the big ones, and it is from the rights of the weak that the duty of the strong is comprised.

Victor Hugo

We do not need international help to stop corruption, we need strong Louisiana Leadership.

David Vitter

England's genius filled all measure Of heart and soul, of strength and pleasure, Gave to the mind its emperor, And life was larger than before: Nor sequent centuries could hit Orbit and sum of Shakespeare's wit. The men who lived with him became Poets, for the air was fame.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Every subject's duty is the King's; but every subject's soul is his own. Therefore, should every soldier in the wars do as every sick man in his bed, wash every mote out of his conscience; and dying so, death is to him advantage; or not dying, the time was blessedly lost wherein such preparation was gained; and in him that escapes, it were no sin to think that, making God so free an offer, He let him outlive the day to see His greatness and to teach others how they should prepare.

William Shakespeare

This Law -- whether Conscious or Unconscious --predestines nothing and no one. It exists from and in Eternity, truly, for it is ETERNITY itself; and as such, since no act can be co-equal with eternity, it cannot be said to act, for it is ACTION itself...Karma creates nothing, nor does it design. It is man who plans and creates causes, and Karmic law adjusts the effects; which adjustment is not an act, but universal harmony, tending ever to resume its original position.

Helen P. Blavatsky, Secret Doctr

All human joys are swift of wing, For heaven doth so allot it; That when you get an easy thing, You find you haven't got it.

Eugene Field

Obscenity is a cleansing process, whereas pornography only adds to the murk.

Henry Miller

The nice thing about egotists is that they don't talk about other people.

Lucille S. Harper

One time the power went out in my house and I had to use the flash on my camera to see my way around. I made a sandwich and took fifty pictures of my face. The neighbors thought there was lightning in my house.

Steven Wright

Wondrous is the strength of cheerfulness, and its power of endurance - the cheerful man will do more in the same time, will do it better, will preserve it longer, than the sad or sullen.

Thomas Carlyle
