Beauty is altogether in the eye of the beholder

Lew Wallace

The less food, the more time to talk, the more to talk about.

Damon Wayans

I've never heard of anybody getting rid of their prized Exile postcards, much less actually writing on them and sending them through the mail to a girl.

When a woman dresses up for an occasion, the man should become the black velvet pillow for the jewel.

John Weitz

The man whose whole activity is diverted to inner meditation becomes insensible to all his surroundings. If he loves, it is not to give himself, to blend in fecund union with another being, but to meditate on his love. His passions are mere appearances, being sterile. They are dissipated in futile imaginings, producing nothing external to themselves.

Emile Durkheim

A happy arrangement: many people prefer cats to other people, and many cats prefer people to other cats.

Mason Cooley

If I have any worth, it is to live my life for God so as to teach these peoples even though some of them still look down on me.

Saint Patrick

When you have them by the balls, their hearts and minds will follow.

Jerry Martin

It is no great art to say something briefly when, like Tacitus, one has something to say; when one has nothing to say, however, and none the less writes a whole book and makes truth into a liar -- that I call an achievement.

G. C. (Georg Christoph) Lichtenb

We must not enable anyone to impose his personal view regarding religion on others by force, oppression, or pressure.

Shirin Ebadi
