Tennessee Williams said if he got rid of his demons, he would lose his angels.

In a word, we may reasonably hope for the virtual abolition of education when has fully had its way. All incentives to learn and all penalties for not learning will vanish.The few who might want to learn will be prevented; who are they to overtop their fellows? And anyway the teachers--or should I say, nurses?--will be far too busy reassuring the dunces and patting them on the back to waste any time on real teaching. We shall no longer have to plan and toil to spread imperturable conceit and incurable ignorance among men. The little vermin themselves will do it for us.

C.S. Lewis

Let the lover be disgraceful, crazy, absent-minded. Someone sober will worry about events going badly. Let the lover be.

There's only one thing that can kill the movies, and that's education.

Will Rogers

If your imagination leads you to understand how quickly people grant your requests when those requests appeal to their self-interest, you can have practically anything you go after.

Napoleon Hill

Canada is currently the only major industrialized country in the world that does not allow any private administration of health care services that are provided by the public system.

Cliff Stearns

The greatest people will be those who possess the best capacities, cultivated with the best habits.

James Harris

Humor can be an incredible lacerating and effective weapon. And that is the way I use it.
