The only time my prayers are never answered is on the golf course.

One travels long distances not solely for large gatherings, but for something more intangible. I have always gone out on a limb for love. A dangerous, romantic, disappointing way to live.

Jennifer Ball

It has always been my practice to cast a long paragraph in a single mould, to try it by my ear, to deposit it in my memory, but to suspend the action of the pen till I had given the last polish to my work.

Edward Gibbon

You don't love a woman because she is beautiful, but she is beautiful because you love her.

Anon.

My greatest happiness is to serve my gracious King and Country and I am envious only of glory for if it be a sin to covet glory I am the most offending soul alive.

Our loyalty is due entirely to the United States. It is due to the President only and exactly to the degree in which he efficiently serves the United States. It is our duty to support him when he serves the United States well. It is our duty to oppose him when he serves it badly.

When he was forty-one, he says, Jesus appeared to him and made him knock off the sauce, stop gargling nose paint.Other drunks have seen pink elephants.

Kurt Vonnegut

I don't want them to forget Babe Ruth. I just want them to remember me!

Hank Aaron

The way it is now, the asylums can hold the sane people but if we tried to shut up the insane we would run out of building materials.

Mark Twain

All politics is local.

Thomas P. O'Neill

It seems to me that romantic comedies used to be about falling in love, but in recent years they've really become just comedies where the love story is only there as a spine to hang the jokes on.

Nigel Cole

I love to dance so much. It's one of my guilty pleasures in life and my hobby.
