The treacherous, unexplored areas of the world are not in continents or the seas; they are in the hearts and minds of men.

I had become too accustomed to the pseudo-Left new style, whereby if your opponent thought he had identified your lowest possible motive, he was quite certain that he had isolated the only real one. This vulgar method, which is now the norm and the standard in much non-Left journalism as well, is designed to have the effect of making any noisy moron into a master analyst.

Christopher Hitchens

I'm from Texas, and I would love to do an old-fashioned gun-slinging Western.

Jensen Ackles

If there were such a thing as terminal literalism, you'd have died in childhood.

Cassandra Clare

People want economy and they'll pay almost any price to get it.

Lee Iacocca

I am a firm believer that God has already ordered the things that have taken place in my life...and I'm just learning to follow the path he's laid before me.

Monica Denise Brown

There can be economy only where there is efficiency.

Benjamin Disraeli

Ask not of things to shed their veils. Unveil yourselves, and things will be unveiled.

Mikhail Naimy

Young men think old men are fools, but old men know young men are fools.

George Chapman

I've been more bossed by my fortune than it has been bossed by me.

John P. Lippett

Writers write. Dreamers talk about it.

Jerry B. Jenkins

The stone unhewn and cold Becomes a living mould, The more the marble wastes The more the statue grows.

Michelangelo Buonarroti

Through an experience that simultaneously involved my sensibility and intelligence, I realized early on that the imaginative life, however morbid it might seem, is the one that suits temperaments like mine. The fictions of my imagination (as it later developed) may weary me, but they don't hurt or humiliate. Impossible lovers can't cheat on us, or smile at us falsely, or be calculating in their caresses. They never forsake us, and they don't die or disappear. --The book of Disquiet
