And above all things, never think that you're not good enough yourself. A man should never think that. My belief is that in life people will take you at your own reckoning

We can not solve our problems with the same level of thinking that created them

Albert Einstein

Masterpieces are not single and solitary births they are the outcome of many years of thinking in common, of thinking by the body of the people, so that the experience of the mass is behind the single voice.

Virginia Woolf

One of the most feared expressions in modern times is The computer is down

Norman Augustine

I don't think I'm a celebrity. I'm just a guy from east Texas who loves cars and airplanes.

Caroll Shelby

Life is gives to us in the same way as a child is given to a nanny, so that is can be raised to maturity.

Leo Tolstoy

Christ would be a national advertiser today, I am sure, as He was a great advertiser in His own day. He thought of His life as business.

Bruce Barton

There is nothing exempt from the peril of mutation; the earth, heavens, and whole world is thereunto subject.

Sir Walter Raleigh

Suicide may also be regarded as an experiment -- a question which man puts to Nature, trying to force her to answer. The question is this: What change will death produce in a man's existence and in his insight into the nature of things? It is a clumsy experiment to make; for it involves the destruction of the very consciousness which puts the question and awaits the answer.

Arthur Schopenhauer

I tend to head for what's amusing because a lot of things aren't happy. But usually you can find a funny side to practically anything.

Maggie Smith

Pity the nation that is full of beliefs and empty of religion. Pity the nation that wears a cloth it does not weave and eats a bread it does not harvest. Pity the nation that acclaims the bully as hero, and that deems the glittering conqueror bountiful. Pity a nation that despises a passion in its dream, yet submits in its awakening. Pity the nation that raises not its voice save when it walks in a funeral, boasts not except among its ruins, and will rebel not save when its neck is laid between the sword and the block. Pity the nation whose statesman is a fox, whose philosopher is a juggler, and whose art is the art of patching and mimicking Pity the nation that welcomes its new ruler with trumpeting, and farewells him with hooting, only to welcome another with trumpeting again. Pity the nation whose sages are dumb with years and whose strongmen are yet in the cradle. Pity the nation divided into fragments, each fragment deeming itself a nation.

Kahlil Gibran

I like science fiction and physics, things like that. Planets being sucked into black holes, and the various vortexes that create possibility, and what happens on the other side of the black hole. To me it's the microcosmic study of the macrocosmic universe in man, and that's why I'm attracted to it.

Wesley Snipes

A man has a tendency to accept you the way you are, while most women immediately start to pick flaws and want to change you.

Marilyn Monroe
