Recommend to your children virtue; that alone can make them happy, not gold.

Ludwig van Beethoven

There ain't no answer. There ain't gonna be any answer. There never has been an answer. That's the answer.

Gertrude Stein

If the world were clear, art would not exist.

Albert Camus

None of us had any idea of how successful Downton was going to be. I thought I was signing up for another period drama that had a slightly modern feel. It had a freedom about it because it was coming out of the head of Julian Fellowes. Anything could happen and generally did.

Dan Stevens

Science is organized knowledge. Wisdom is organized life.

Immanuel Kant

A man can never have too much Time to himself, nor too little to do. Had I a little son, I would christen him Nothing-To-Do; he should do nothing. Man, I verily believe, is out of his element as long as he is operative. I am altogether for the life contemplative.

Charles Lamb

Our nation has kept faith with its veterans. Funding for veterans healthcare and benefits is strong, and has increased more than 75 percent in the last decade.

Steve Buyer

I never trust anything that can be captured in 2 takes.

Eleanor Tomlinson

There is a principle which is a bar against all information, which is proof against all arguments and which cannot fail to keep a man in everlasting ignorance - that principle is contempt prior to investigation.

Herbert Spencer, Principles of B

Something goes wrong, I yell at them -'Fix it'- whether it's their fault or not. You can only really yell at the players you trust.

Bill Parcells

Honor is not the exclusive property of any political party.

Herbert Hoover

If I were to say, God, why me? about the bad things, then I should have said, God, why me? about the good things that happened in my life.

Arthur Ashe
