Epictetus

Dwight D. Eisenhower

Art must take reality by surprise.

Francoise Sagan

I may be drunk, Miss, but in the morning I will be sober and you will still be ugly.

Winston Churchill

Glimpses do ye seem to see of that mortally intolerable truth; that all deep, earnest thinking is but the intrepid effort of the soul to keep the open independence of her sea; while the wildest winds of heaven and earth conspire to cast her on the treacherous, slavish shore.

Stephen King

My wife gets pampered pretty well. She's had me trained since she was pregnant, when I started making her oatmeal with fresh berries every morning.

Michael Weatherly

Mark Twain
