Tess? A soft voice at the door; she looked up and saw Will there, silhouetted in the light from the corridor.

Nature is seldom in the wrong, custom always.

Mary Wortley Montagu

Ability is the art of getting credit for all the home runs somebody else hits.

Casey (Charles Dillon) Stengel

The religious geniuses of all ages have been distinguished by this kind of religious feeling, which knows no dogma and no God conceived in man's image; so that there can be no church whose central teachings are based on it. Hence it is precisely among the heretics of every age that we find men who were filled with this highest kind of religious feeling and were in many cases regarded by their contemporaries as atheists, sometimes also as saints. Looked at in this light, men like Democritus, Francis of Assisi, and Spinoza are closely akin to one another.

Albert Einstein

You see, lots of the real people can't do it at all: they're such fools that they think style comes by nature to people in their position; and so they never learn. There's always something professional about doing a thing superlatively well.

George Bernard Shaw

Acquisition means life to miserable mortals.

Hesiod

We're all fools...all the time. It's just we're a different kind each day. We think, I'm not a fool today. I've learned my lesson. I was a fool yesterday but not this morning. Then tomorrow we find out that, yes, we were a fool today too. I think the only way we can grow and get on in this world is to accept the fact we're not perfect and live accordingly.

Ray Bradbury, The Illustrated Ma

Well, excuuuuuse me!!!!

Steve Martin

The owners don't win by having a lockout. Shutting down your business is not good for anybody and it's certainly not good for the players, it's certainly not good for the fans. And that's most important to us.

Roger Goodell

Propelled by freedom of faith, gender equality and economic justice for all, India will become a modern nation. Minor blemishes cannot cloak the fact that India is becoming such a modern nation: no faith is in danger in our country, and the continuing commitment to gender equality is one of the great narratives of our times.

Pranab Mukherjee

Boredom is the root of all evil--the despairing refusal to be oneself.

Soren Kierkegaard

If you write it down, you can make it happen.

Staness Jonekos

Growing old is not growing up.
