Today's misery is real unemployment, home foreclosures and bankruptcies. This is the Obama Misery Index and its at a record high. Its going to take more than new rhetoric to put Americans back to work - its going to take a new president.

Our virtues and our failings are inseparable, like force and matter. When they separate, man is no more.

Nikola Tesla

The self-explorer, whether he wants to or not, becomes the explorer of everything else. He learns to see himself, but suddenly, provided he was honest, all the rest appears, and it is as rich as he was, and, as a final crowning, richer.

Elias Canetti

I love making music, though. I love playing.

Pharrell Williams

It's tough because a lot of my friends in normal life, a lot of my friends in the entertainment business, and a lot of my friends in the wrestling business are gay. Just to say something spiteful and hurtful, I don't get it... if it was true and I was gay, I'd embrace it, and I'd tell you guys about it and I'd celebrate it.

Hulk Hogan

There are days when solitude is a heady wine that intoxicates you with freedom, others when it is a bitter tonic, and still others when it is a poison that makes you beat your head against the wall.

Sidonie Gabrielle Colette

A lawyer is a gentlemen that rescues your estate from your enemies and then keeps it to himself.

Lord Henry P. Brougham

Don't be a cynic and disconsolate preacher. Don't bewail and moan. Omit the negative propositions. Challenge us with incessant affirmatives. Don't waste yourself in rejection, or bark against the bad, but chant the beauty of the good.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

No totalitarians, no wars, no fears, famines or perils of any kind can really break a man's spirit until he breaks it himself by surrendering. Tyranny has many dread powers, but not the power to rule the spirit.

Edgar Sheffield Brightman

We swallow greedily any lie that flatters us, but we sip only little by little at a truth we find bitter.

Denis Diderot

Death is the dropping of the flower that the fruit may swell.

Henry Ward Beecher

But every time our ability to access information and to communicate it to others is improved, in some sense we have achieved an increase over natural intelligence.

Vernor Vinge

It's easier to change what you do than people think it is. If you don't change, your field changes around you.

Walter Gilbert
