Virginia Woolf

Haven't you learned yet that I put something more than whisky into my speeches.

Sir Winston Churchill, to his so

Jada Pinkett Smith

Every great man nowadays has his disciples, and it is always Judas who writes the biography.

Oscar Wilde

Talk about the flag or drugs or crime (never about race or class or justice) and follow the yellow brick road to the wonderful land of consensus. In place of honest argument among consenting adults the politicians substitute a lullaby for frightened children: the pretense that conflict doesn't really exist, that we have achieved the blessed state in which we no longer need politics.

Lewis H. Lapham

Dullness is the coming of age of seriousness.

Oscar Wilde

Take, if you must, this little bag of dreams, Unloose the cord, and they will wrap you round.

Aeschylus

I am incredibly thankful for the strong support I have from my peers in the industry and of course my amazing fans.

Miranda Lambert

The only thing I fear more than change is no change. The business of being static makes me nuts.

There comes a time in a man's life when to get where he has to go - if there are no doors or windows he walks through a wall.
