Some of us are like wheelbarrows, only useful when pushed and easily upset.

The Internet will win because it is relentless. Like a cannibal, it even turns on it own. Though early portals like Prodigy and AOL once benefited from their first-mover status, competitors surpassed them as technology and consumer preferences changed.

A popular author is one who writes what the people think. Genius invites them to think something else.

Ambrose Bierce

Borrowing is not much better than begging; just as lending with interest is not much better than stealing.

Doris Lessing

I just stopped playing bitches on wheels and peoples' mothers. I have only a few more years to kick up my heels!

Angela Lansbury

If you shut up truth and bury it under the ground, it will but grow up, and gather to itself such explosive power that the day it bursts through it will blow up everything in its way.

Emile Zola

When I played ball, I didn't play for fun. . . . It's no pink tea, and mollycoddles had better stay out. It's a contest and everything that implies, a struggle for supremacy, a survival of the fittest.

Ty Cobb

If the followers of the Oversoul are kept blind, if they can't judge the Oversoul's purpose for themselves, then they aren't freely choosing between good and evil, or between wise and foolish, but are only choosing to subsume themselves in the purposes of the Oversoul How can the Oversoul's plans be well-served, if all its followers are the kind of weak-souled people who are willing to obey the Oversoul without understanding? I will serve you, Oversoul, with my whole heart I'll serve you, if I understand what you're trying to do, what it means. And if your purpose is a good one... I will not be tamed, only persuaded. I will not be coerced or led blindly or tricked or bullied -- I am willing only to be convinced. If you don't trust your own basic goodness enough to tell me what you're trying to do, Oversoul, then you're confessing your own moral weakness and I'll never serve you.

Orson Scott Card

If to live is to progress, if you are lucky, from foolishness to wisdom, then to write novels is to broadcast the various stages of your foolishness.

Jane Smiley

The more he cast away the more he had.

John Bunyan

Happiness comes when we test our skills towards some meaningful purpose.

John Stossel

I love more than anything looking at a movie scene by scene and seeing the intention behind it.

Jodie Foster

Such decisions will be far reaching and difficult. But you never lacked courage in the past. Your courage is now needed for the future.
